Offers strong integration capabilities and reliable features but needs pricing and scaling improvements
Many things are evolving with the AI buzz in the market. What I would like to see improved or enhanced in webMethods.io in the future is that since webMethods.io is already under IBM, I think IBM will introduce and integrate AI into it. Additionally, regarding what webMethods.io can improve is the license cost. Other cloud players are also providing the same kind of functionality, such as AWS and Azure. webMethods.io is being installed on-premises, but AWS is providing it directly in the cloud. When comparing the license cost and request per minute cost, webMethods.io needs to address that. There are many competitors in the market for this.

Offers good scalability, strong stability and seamless integration
The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive. It was a major plus. The integration process was smooth. Oracle's security is good and significantly better than that of other solutions I've encountered. Previously, we had separate data interfaces for 15 concrete mixing plants, requiring manual document creation in Oracle. Now, with integrated automation, production has become much easier and more efficient over the past three years.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This solution has improved our productivity and efficiency in pretty much all of our applications."
"The product is powerful, straightforward, and easy to use."
"The stability and performance are definitely very good, and the product really comes strong on an enterprise scale in terms of stability and performance, as it does not crash or freeze and has no bugs or glitches."
"My advice to anybody who is considering this product is that it is a very powerful tool that will empower the development of services."
"It is an integration platform, so it has improved my organization by giving it one common platform to work with multiple systems."
"The stability is good."
"In the API gateway, there is a new feature that allows us to filter logs within a payload. This has been a useful feature."
"My impression of webMethods.io's drag-and-drop interface to design workflows is actually amazing."
"The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive."
"This solution can maintain a large volume of data and is flexible to what data it can handle. The performance is very good."
 

Cons

"Their support could also be improved. They could be more responsive and quicker."
"There should be better logging, or a better dashboard, to allow you to see see the logs of the services."
"The solution's release management feature could be better."
"The UI for the admin console is very old. It hasn't been updated for years and is pretty much the same one that we started with. This is something that could be refreshed and made more modern."
"Keeping in mind that we haven't explored the microservices completely, which has been a key element of their innovation recently, I do think webMethods is coming under increasing pressure when it comes to their price-to-feature value proposition. It's probably the single biggest strategic risk they have."
"Prices should be reduced, ideally by up to 30% for long-term customers like us."
"As webMethods Integration Server is expensive, that's its area for improvement."
"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing."
"The solution could improve by adding more advanced features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive, but we reached a good agreement with the company. It is still a little bit expensive, but we got a better deal than the previous one."
"Sometimes we don't have a very clear idea what the licensing will entail at first, because it can be very customizable. On one hand, this can be a good thing, because it can be tailored to a specific customer's needs. But on the other hand it can also be an issue when some customer asks, "What's the cost?" and we can't yet give them an accurate answer."
"It is worth the cost."
"I am not involved in the licensing side of things."
"I signed a three-year deal with them. It is a yearly locked-in price for the next three years."
"I would like to see better pricing for the license."
"The solution’s pricing is too high."
"Pricing is the number-one downfall. It's too expensive. They could make more money by dropping the price in half and getting more customers. It's the best product there is, but it's too expensive."
