Improved workflow collaboration and data flexibility enhance team efficiency, but performance and logout issues require attention
Regarding improvements or enhancements in TIBCO EBX, when it comes to 5.8 to 5.9, there was a really good feature added, which is the hyperlink. When you click on a table, you navigate to deeper tables. If there is a table with ten fields, those ten fields are taken from a second table and interrelated to a third table, you can keep clicking on each field and go deeper and deeper. To come each level above, there is a hyperlink created on the top. You just need to click on the hyperlink and keep navigating back, similar to certain websites. However, there were some drawbacks I noticed with the latest version 6, particularly in terms of performance, where in a few cases, the performance was impacted, necessitating work to get things sorted. Additionally, the logout from the application happened randomly or sometimes it wasn't logging out, which is a compliance issue since users expect to log out after a certain time. Version 6 introduced a strong filtration logic. All EBX versions have a separate section for filters that offer text search and advanced search options. In EBX 6, they enhanced the search feature deeply, including conjunctions and, or, else, allowing you to create your own logic for how you need the filter to work. They also introduced a top-level search feature, where you enter some text, and it searches the entire table. With the latest update of TIBCO EBX, there are a few issues with the workflow that need improvement. When going through a workflow, there are functionalities to upload files, and sometimes you need to attach files for evidence. That section of EBX had certain issues. We dropped the plan to switch to EBX 6 due to other technical limitations on our side. Those were a few pending items we had raised to them, and they were working on resolving them. From a usage point of view, those were the main concerns, but they introduced a good idea about the side panel. The pagination concept was introduced to navigate among different domains, and in the left panel, you have search capabilities and pagination functionality.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"Nowadays there are lot of MDM tools available in market, but I would recommend Tibco MDM if good throughput is required with its integration layer."
"The tool's UI is good and easy to understand."
"The feature I appreciate most about TIBCO EBX is the UI, which is quite simple and user-friendly."
"Great integration tool for complex integration environment - large range of adapters and connection software."
"It is easy to code, especially because it is coded in Java."
"The program is very user-friendly and the .com order is easy to design."
"The product is highly customizable."
"DRM customer service is top notch since it is a small set of people that use it."
"Implementing the workflow portion of DRM which is called Data Relationship Governance (DRG) the client cut that time down to an hour."
"As a product that integrates out of the box with Oracle EBS and Hyperion the product has proved to be a great step forward in allowing us to manage reference data across multiple platforms and something that we were able to deploy quite easily."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Using DRG within Oracle Data Relationship Management has been beneficial for our organization."
"With this application, if data was entered manually with a system whose data we migrated onto the DRM system, we can automate 90% of that manual entry."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to use JavaScript in formulas."
 

Cons

"We would like to see the community and documentation for this solution be developed. At present there is very little tutorial documentation available, and limited community support for issues with the product."
"The design should be easier and more visual."
"TIBCO EBX does not efficiently handle large volumes of data; during bulk data loads or refresh activities, the system may freeze or workflows may terminate unexpectedly."
"In terms of improvements that this solution needs, it should support big data."
"Marketing could be improved, as EBX wasn't well-presented in Turkey."
"It's a pretty steep learning curve, I find, and not really fluid and flexible."
"Version 6 moves to open source but is not very stable and not very usable."
"One aspect that could be improved in TIBCO EBX is the latency when compared with other tools. This drawback is dependent on the data volume that you have."
"Improvements are needed in the fees and the licensing part. The tool's price can be made lower."
"Integrating with non-Oracle products needs improvement, it only provides a text output file."
"The ROI will be a few years. DRM/DRG is really expensive."
"Better external connections and API integrations are needed."
"If you hard-code values into the properties, you'll get customer complaints that DRM is "running slow."
"When we moved to the cloud, it was extremely complicated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of TIBCO EBX is too high. The solution can only be used in a project that has good sponsorship that can afford it."
"TIBCO EBX is cheaper than Informatica."
"I'm just involved in technical, but I understand that its pricing is similar to HP so it is quite expensive."
"This solution is costly compared to other products on the market, but this is due to the complete functionality that is provided. The pricing model is very straightforward, and is worked out on a pay-per- instance basis, and only applies to active instances."
"TIBCO EBX is a very expensive solution. There is an annual fee to use the solution."
"The price of the solution is very, very high."
