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

"I have found the most valuable feature to be the ability to monitor integration performance and the reasons for the failure of inbound and outbound transactions. We can see both inbound and outbound transactions, and it gives us a mirror image or the whole history of all inbound and outbound transactions between Infor M3 Business Engine and the third parties.""The tool's most valuable feature is middleware capabilities.""We haven't had any issues with ION so far.""ION is good for building custom middleware boxes."
