GC
A highly scalable and flexible solution that has excellent workflows and provides fast technical support
I am satisfied with the product. The documentation is getting better. I rate the documentation a six out of ten. We use the capability of this product to use other products like IBM to move data. The solution's workflows are its best feature. The tool is workflow-based and is very useful for integration. It is a hub for our clients. It is very useful.
Moustafa Fares - PeerSpot reviewer
Connects systems securely, simplifies data communication, and benefits from AI integration potential
I would like to see an AI project with BusinessWorks. I haven't worked with cloud architecture using BusinessWorks, so I would like to work with it as a cloud architect. I am still learning the documentation, so I don't have a complete experience with TIBCO. The learning curve takes time compared to webMethods.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool has good scalability and flexibility."
"The OSGI console is available to debug different issues and get low level informations on the applications development, like bundle, dependencies, etc."
"The solution is very scalable. It can handle a lot. We have encryption plus integration servers running on that platform currently."
"We use the solution to develop applications."
"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with."
"Customer support is very efficient."
"It is a very robust system."
"The ability to link to different technologies is valuable to us."
"It is very stable. It is a market leader, and it has connectors to many of the legacy systems. It also has enterprise cloud connectors."
 

Cons

"There are not many consultants who know the product."
"Challenges with TIBCO BusinessWorks were mainly due to unclear documentation, but these were overcome by referring to comprehensive documents and raising tickets with TIBCO support."
"The cost has room for improvement."
"They don't support out of the box - you have to buy adapters or you have to have the technology."
"I would like the solution to be integrated into the cloud."
"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."
"Improve Business Studio's stability to further minimize development time."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is aligned with other products."
"My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."
"I think BusinessWorks is more expensive compared to other products. We have the ELA, so at least we have some sort of bargain or discount with that. But for a start-up, it's very expensive compared to other ESBs."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks is a very expensive solution."
"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."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks is expensive."
"The payments made for service are the only addition to the standard licensing fees that we pay for the solution."
"TIBCO licensing is yearly and very costly for a company like ours."
"The license is expensive, and I would rate it one out of ten."
