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.

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 MFT component of webMethods, for example, is easy to set up and convenient to use. It handles files very efficiently and it is easy to automate tasks with complex schedules. Monitoring is centralized to MWS which can be used to monitor other products as well (Trading Networks, BPM, MFT, etc.)"

"The solution is scalable."

"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."

"I would say the core Web-based integrations work the best. They are the most efficient and robust implementations one can do with webMethods."

"The most valuable feature of the webMethods Integration Server is its reliability. It has a lot of great documentation from the service providers. Additionally, it is easy to use."

"When it comes to the user interface, I'm already really used to it. I cannot say anything against it. For me, it's easy to use."

"Some of the key features are the integration platform, query mechanism, message handling within the bus, and the rules engine. We've had a really good experience with webMethods Integration Server."

"webMethods Trading Networks is a good solution for interacting with outside of the organization. We can integrate the solutions with multiple outside the organization."

Cons

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

"The logging capability has room for improvement. That way, we could keep a history of all the transactions. It would be helpful to be able to get to that without having to build a standalone solution to do so."

"The patching of infrastructure is not very smooth and improved authentication should be added in the next feature."

"It is an expensive solution and not very suitable for smaller businesses."

"Scalability and connectors to different cloud applications is lacking."

"This solution could be improved by offering subscription based licensing."

"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The licensing cost is high compared to other options."

"I'd like to see the admin portal for managing the integration server go up a level, to have more capabilities and to be given a more modern web interface."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"The product is expensive."

"This is not a cheap solution but, compared to other products such as those offered by IBM, the pricing is similar."

"It's a good deal for the money that we pay."

"webMethods Integration Server is expensive, and there's no fixed price on it because it has a point pricing model. You can negotiate, which makes it interesting."

"There are no hidden costs in addition to the standard licensing fees for webMethods. For corporate organizations, it's a very cheap or fairly priced product, but for growing or small businesses, it's quite expensive. These businesses would probably need to consider an enterprise services bus at some point. Thus, from a pricing point, it closes out non-cooperate businesses."

"The pricing and licensing costs for webMethods are very high, which is the only reason that we might switch to another product."

"The solution's development license is free for three to six months. We have to pay for other things."

"It is a cost-effective solution."
