Connects systems securely, simplifies data communication, and benefits from AI integration potential

I would like to see an AI project with BusinessWorks. I haven't worked with cloud architecture using BusinessWorks, so I would like to work with it as a cloud architect. I am still learning the documentation, so I don't have a complete experience with TIBCO. The learning curve takes time compared to webMethods.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."

"The most valuable features are the stability and the time to market."

"The solution is very scalable. It can handle a lot. We have encryption plus integration servers running on that platform currently."

"It is user friendly, it's not complex."

"The tool's most valuable feature is BusinessConnect. It's an older product but still quite useful, especially for transferring files from one location to another."

"We use the solution to develop applications."

"It's a great software application for the middleware use cases to connect the front channels to the back ends in a secure and safer way."

"The ability to link to different technologies is valuable to us."

"It is very valuable for my work, helping me communicate with other branches, parse data, and change data formats to respond to the front channels with the correct format."

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."

"The solution’s customer support should be improved."

"Could be more user friendly in the development area."

"There are multiple plugins which increase the number of product installations."

"The learning curve takes time compared to webMethods."

"Technical support is average. It's not the best."

"The creation of XSDs should be much simpler. They should ensure that what was working in the previous version must also work in the new version of BW six."

"The cost of this product is too expensive for smaller companies or those with a small number of integrations."

"They don't support out of the box - you have to buy adapters or you have to have the technology."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Licensing scheme is too rigid"

"The payments made for service are the only addition to the standard licensing fees that we pay for the solution."

"My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."

"I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten."

"The cost depends on the components required."

"The solution is too expensive. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there, particularly because there are so many open-source competitors on the market. I don't know the exact numbers, however."

"I don't have the prices of the products, but I know that TIBCO is not a cheap solution. I think that this solution is more suitable for large companies because I don't think that small- or medium-sized companies would have the money for this solution. WSO2 has the community version for free, so many of the smaller companies can use it. I'm not sure what the prices are for support, though, so I suppose the support for WSO2 is not cheap either."

"It is a bit expensive for medium-sized companies. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The existing licensing will not work because the product platform itself is different."
