Sagar SampadMall - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides robust security for financial transactions and protects the ERP database from direct exposure
My main feedback is about the account management. I feel they should connect with clients more frequently, beyond just selling the product. They should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products. My main suggestion is focused solely on the account management approach, specifically fostering closer and more proactive client relationships. So, the pricing could also be bit improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."
"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."
"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."
"The most valuable features for us are security and centralization."
"I like the solution's policies, transformation, mediation, and routing features."
"Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration."
"The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you."
"The orchestration aspects of APIs, the integration capabilities, and the logging functionalities were the most critical features of our workflow."
"It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."
"They are the building blocks of EAI in SAG products, and they offer a very good platform."
"The connectivity that the tool provides, along with the functionalities needed for our company's business, are some of the beneficial aspects of the product."
"The solution is scalable."
 

Cons

"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."
"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."
"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."
"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."
"Prices should be reduced, ideally by up to 30% for long-term customers like us."
"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."
"We got the product via a reseller, and the support from the reseller has been less than desirable."
"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."
"I would like to have a dashboard where I can see all of the communication between components and the configuration."
"I have noticed that webMethods ActiveTransfer has had problems when handling large files. For example, when we receive (and perform operations on) files that are larger than about 16 MB, the software starts losing performance."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Understanding the overall architecture is difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle is not a cheap solution and it is not affordable for all of our clients in Portugal."
"It is an expensive tool. I rate the product price a nine out of ten, where ten means it is very expensive."
"webMethods.io Integration's pricing is high and has yearly subscription costs."
"Its cost depends on the use cases."
"Pricing has to be negotiated with the local Software AG representative. SAG can always prepare an appropriate pricing model for every client."
"Based on our team discussions and feedback, it is pretty costly because they charge us for each transmission."
"It is worth the cost."
"It's a good deal for the money that we pay."
"The price of webMethods Integration Server isn't that high from an enterprise context, but open-source ESB solutions will always be the cheapest."
