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 product is powerful, straightforward, and easy to use."

"What I found most valuable in webMethods Integration Server is that it's a strong ESB. It also has strong API modules and portals."

"One valuable feature is that it is event-driven, so when new data is available on the source it can be quickly processed and displayed. Integration is definitely another useful feature, and B2B is one area where webMethods has its own unique thing going, whereby we can do monitoring of transactions, monitoring of client onboarding, and so on."

"The synchronous and asynchronous messaging system the solution provides is very good."

"It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."

"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."

"The cloud version of the solution is very easy to set up."

More webMethods.io pros

Cons

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

"We got the product via a reseller, and the support from the reseller has been less than desirable."

"Prices should be reduced, ideally by up to 30% for long-term customers like us."

"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."

"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."

"The initial setup of the webMethods Integration Server is not easy but it gets easier once you know it. It is tiresome but not difficult."

"The configuring of the JWT token would be improved as it is a confusing process. We require more information on this part of the solution."

"Large file handling is pretty hard comparatively to other middleware tools."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

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

"webMethods.io Integration's pricing is high and has yearly subscription costs."

"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."

"I don’t have much idea about prices, but webMethods API Portal is not something cheaper."

"The pricing is a yearly license."

"Always plan five years ahead and don’t jeopardize the quality of your project by dropping items from the bill of materials."

"Currently, the licensing solution for this product is pretty straightforward. The way that Software AG has moved in their licensing agreements is very understandable. It is very easy for you to see where things land. Like most vendors today, they are transaction based. Therefore, just having a good understanding of how many transactions that you are doing a year would be very wise. Luckily, there are opportunities to work with the vendor to get a good understanding of how many transactions you have and what is the right limit for you to fall under."

"I am not involved in the licensing side of things."
