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."

"It is good for communicating between the systems and for publishing and subscribing. We can easily retrieve data. It is good in terms of troubleshooting and other things."

"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API."

"It's very flexible and a good platform to use."

"How simple it is to create new solutions."

"webMethods Integration Server is an easy-to-use solution and does not require a lot of coding."

"It frankly fills the gap between IT and business by having approval and policy enforcement on each state and cycle of the asset from the moment it gets created until it is retired."

"The stability is good."

"The most valuable feature of webMethods Integration Server is all the capabilities it provides. We leverage most of the features, that they have offered to us. Our vendor has made some additional features on top of the webMethods Integration Server and we use all the features together."

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."

"With performance, there is room for improvement in regards to if we would like to put another extra layer of security on it, such as SSL. This is affecting their performance quite significantly. They need to improve the process of managing the SSL and other things inside their solutions, so there will not be quite such a significant impact to the performance."

"Business monitoring (BAM) needs improvement because the analytics and prediction module very often has performance problems."

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

"They should develop clear visibility for the onboarding."

"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."

"Rapid application development has to be considered, especially for UI, where user interference is crucial."

"Version control is not very easy. The packages and the integration server are on Eclipse IDE, but you can't compare the code from the IDE. For example, if you are working on Java code, doing version control and deployment for a quick comparison between the code isn't easy. Some tools or plug-ins are there, such as CrossVista, and you can also play with an SVN server where you have to place your package, and from there, you can check, but you have to do that as a separate exercise. You can't do it from the IDE or webMethods server. You can't just right-click and upload your service."

"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

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

"The vendor is flexible with respect to pricing."

"The product is very expensive."

"With our current licensing, it's very easy for us to scale. With our older licensing model, it was very hard. This is definitely something that I would highlight."

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

"webMethods.io is expensive. We have multiple components, and you need to pay for each of them."

"Some of the licensing is "component-ized," which is confusing to new users/customers."

"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."
