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 developer portal is a valuable feature."

"ActiveTransfer lets us maintain the file in the staging area before we transfer it. After that, we can remove the file to make sure that the reconciliation process is done. Sometimes we will zip and unzip the files, but if we have a GKB file, we often ignore it."

"The Software AG Designer has been great. It's very intuitive."

"Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration."

"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."

"Operationally, I consider the solution to be quite good."

"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 product supports various types of digital documents, including XMLs and EDI."

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."

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

"Upgrades are complex. They typically take about five months from start to finish. There are many packages that plug into webMethods Integration Server, which is the central point for a vast majority of the transactions at my organization. Anytime we are upgrading that, there are complexities within each component that we must understand. That makes any upgrade very cumbersome and complicated. That has been my experience at this company. Because there are many different business units that we are touching, there are so many different components that we are touching. The amount of READMEs that you have to go through takes some time."

"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."

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

"The price has room for improvement."

"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier."

"A potential drawback of webMethods.io API is its adaptability to legacy systems, which can vary in compatibility."

"In terms of improvement, it would be better if it adapted quicker to open standards. It took a while for API specification before the last version was available. The spec of version two was rather quick."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Most of my clients would like the price of the solution to be reduced."

"The pricing is a yearly license."

"Some who consider this solution often avoid it due to its high price."

"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."

"It is worth the cost."

"It is an expensive tool. I rate the product price a nine out of ten, where ten means it is very expensive."

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

"I would like to see better pricing for the license."
