Offers good scalability, strong stability and seamless integration
The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive. It was a major plus. The integration process was smooth. Oracle's security is good and significantly better than that of other solutions I've encountered. Previously, we had separate data interfaces for 15 concrete mixing plants, requiring manual document creation in Oracle. Now, with integrated automation, production has become much easier and more efficient over the past three years.

Offers strong integration capabilities and reliable features but needs pricing and scaling improvements
Many things are evolving with the AI buzz in the market. What I would like to see improved or enhanced in webMethods.io in the future is that since webMethods.io is already under IBM, I think IBM will introduce and integrate AI into it. Additionally, regarding what webMethods.io can improve is the license cost. Other cloud players are also providing the same kind of functionality, such as AWS and Azure. webMethods.io is being installed on-premises, but AWS is providing it directly in the cloud. When comparing the license cost and request per minute cost, webMethods.io needs to address that. There are many competitors in the market for this.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive."
"This solution can maintain a large volume of data and is flexible to what data it can handle. The performance is very good."
"In the API gateway, there is a new feature that allows us to filter logs within a payload. This has been a useful feature."
"They are the building blocks of EAI in SAG products, and they offer a very good platform."
"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."
"Application integration, business process integration, and B2B partner integration are valuable. But among these, I feel B2B partner integration is the most valuable. This module integrates two business partners and exchanges data through electronic data interchange messages in the form of specific standards, without any manual process needed."
"Within the new version, webMethods API Gateway gives us an end-to-end lifecycle from the creation of the API up into the development, deployment, and promotion into production/live. The current end-to-end lifecycle of the API gives us enough authority and governance of the API. We know what are currently live services, what is in the testing stage of development, and what version that has been commissioned. So, the full life cycle itself gives us full authority and governance of the API."
"High throughput and excellent scalability."
"It is a bundled product stack for A2A and B2B usage. It is one of the best products which I have used during my integration career."
"It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by adding more advanced features."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing."
"The market webMethods Integration Server falls under is a very crowded market, so for the product to stand out, Software AG would need to get traction in the open source community by releasing a new version or a base version and open source it, so people can create new custom components and add it to the portfolio."
"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."
"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."
"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."
"It would be nice if they had a change management system offering. We built our own deployer application because the one built into webMethods couldn't enforce change management rules. Integration into a change management system, along with the version control system, would be a good offering; it's something that they're lacking."
"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 needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."
"Perhaps in the area of Microservices, where I think Trading Networks could benefit from some improvements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There is a license needed to use the webMethods Integration Server."
"It's a good deal for the money that we pay."
"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."
"Always plan five years ahead and don’t jeopardize the quality of your project by dropping items from the bill of materials."
"I do think webMethods is coming under increasing pressure when it comes to their price-to-feature value proposition. It's probably the single biggest strategic risk they have. They're very expensive in their industry. They've been raising the price recently, especially when compared with their competitors."
"I signed a three-year deal with them. It is a yearly locked-in price for the next three years."
"Its cost depends on the use cases."
"I am not involved in the licensing side of things."
