Has many add-on services and supports different authentication methods

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most beneficial feature of SAP Integration Suite for our operation is its capability to enable API-based cloud applications to integrate seamlessly with SAP S/4HANA."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The SAP Integration Suite can work with different authentication methods. It supports physical authentication, certificate-based integration, and mTLS authentication. This allows customers to choose the best integration approach based on their policies and procedures. Additionally, the suite offers both push and data integration capabilities."
"The technical support services are good."
"The most beneficial feature for our clients is the easy access to their information, achieved effortlessly through integration."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"EDI is robust and integration with SAP is good."
"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."
"What I like best about webMethods Integration Server is its portfolio of connectors."
"Ease of implementation and flexibility to hold the business logic are the most valuable features."
"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."
"The main assets are its flow language, debugging, and Broker. Flow language is far better and more flexible for debugging."
"The Software AG Designer has been great. It's very intuitive."
 

Cons

"The setup process for the SAP integration Suite is not straightforward. It involves some technical aspects and can be complex."
"I believe there are areas where SAP Integration Suite could be improved, such as enhancing message transformation capabilities and simplifying conditional routing features compared to the on-premise tool SAP PO (Process Orchestration)."
"The instances are costly."
"They could provide graphical data for over-viewing metrics such as payments, receipts, creditors, and refunds."
"The product's UI could be faster."
"With respect to the API gateway, the runtime component, the stability after a new release is something that can be improved."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It could be more user-friendly."
"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."
"For code version control, you need to use some external software."
"We'd like for them to open up to a more cloud-based solution that could offer more flexibility and maybe a better rules engine or more integration with rules engines."
"The learning curve is a little steep at first."
"The Software AG Designer could be more memory-efficient or CPU-efficient so that we can use it with middle-spec hardware."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm not well-versed in the details of pricing and standard licensing for SAP Integration Suite as I primarily focus on technical aspects. As far as I know, clients can choose between different levels of offerings based on their messaging frequency and business requirements, with premium levels offering more features and customization options."
"I rate its pricing a five out of ten."
"It is inexpensive for smaller businesses and expensive for larger businesses."
"It is expensive, but we reached a good agreement with the company. It is still a little bit expensive, but we got a better deal than the previous one."
"I signed a three-year deal with them. It is a yearly locked-in price for the next three years."
"I am not involved in the licensing side of things."
"webMethods.io is expensive. We have multiple components, and you need to pay for each of them."
"I would like to see better pricing for the license."
"This is an expensive product and we may replace it with something more reasonably priced."
"The pricing and licensing costs for webMethods are very high, which is the only reason that we might switch to another product."
"The price is high and I give it a five out of ten."
