Palantir Gotham vs TIBCO BusinessWorks comparison

"This solution is seamless; from one platform, we can do just about anything."

"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."

"BusinessWorks reduces development time, helping developers to focus on business logic."

"The solution is stable. We haven't had any serious technical issues."

"Drag and drop make it easier to build the service end to end."

"The most valuable feature is the integration."

"The tool's most valuable feature is BusinessConnect. It's an older product but still quite useful, especially for transferring files from one location to another."

"One of the most valuable features is data transformation. We have some legacy systems which are in old technology, like SOAP, whereas the new ones are in REST. So we use BusinessWorks to transform data from one format to another, from SOAP to REST."

"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with, and BusinessWorks is robust, flexible, and scalable."

"TIBCO BusinessWorks' real-time data exchange capability has benefited our customers greatly; we conduct a lot of messaging with Superstream and external partners, so it works well for us."

"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."

"This solution's cloud could be improved. I don't know whether it was because we didn't have the internal expertise or if it was the product itself, but since they came later—I think only two or three years into the cloud—after many other iPaaS that had been in the cloud for longer, I feel that maybe they haven't matured in terms of the cloud."

"The creation of XSDs should be much simpler. They should ensure that what was working in the previous version must also work in the new version of BW six."

"The container-based image is too large and this makes auto-scaling difficult."

"There are not many plugins available to integrate the databases. We have to write it in Java and integrate it. The developers should have more knowledge. These are the three main aspects that they could improve."

"Its price can be improved. For medium enterprises, it is a very expensive tool. In the market, you won't get many resources for this solution. You won't find many developers in the market very easily. The latest version of TIBCO (6.4 or 6.x) is not very stable. It has got many issues. We have raised this with TIBCO, and they are taking a lot of time to come up with a fix, which is making us move away from this product. Some of the performance-tuning aspects are also missing in version 6. They should provide performance-related fixes, which will be helpful for the customers. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The product has evolved, but it is very pricey. That's one of the challenges. They have provided all the features that are there in other products, but this is a platform upgrade. The platform has completely been changed from 5.x to 6.x, and we can't use the same environment. We can't run both versions on the same server as VM. The development environment is entirely different. In version 5.x, there was a proprietary designer. Now, it has common plug-ins developed on top of Eclipse."

"The initial setup process was not simple."

"A possible improvement could be to give the capability to use different profiles for each AppNode when an application is deployed on an AppSpace."

"I'd like to see a more user-friendly solution in terms of the development area."

"I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten."

"I don't have the prices of the products, but I know that TIBCO is not a cheap solution. I think that this solution is more suitable for large companies because I don't think that small- or medium-sized companies would have the money for this solution. WSO2 has the community version for free, so many of the smaller companies can use it. I'm not sure what the prices are for support, though, so I suppose the support for WSO2 is not cheap either."

"My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."

"The solution is too expensive. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there, particularly because there are so many open-source competitors on the market. I don't know the exact numbers, however."

"The product is not cheap."

"TIBCO licensing is yearly and very costly for a company like ours."

"TIBCO BusinessWorks is a very expensive solution."

"The cost depends on the components required."
