Foolproof stability and robust system

SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience. One of its notable features is real-time replication, which ensures that data changes are replicated immediately. This is particularly advantageous when we need to execute full processes promptly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."

"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."

"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."

"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."

"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."

"Broker and UM are the best features."

"We needed a tool that was able to orchestrate and help us configure our APIs so that we could maintain and see the heartbeat, traffic, trends, etc."

"I would say the core Web-based integrations work the best. They are the most efficient and robust implementations one can do with webMethods."

"webMethods Integration Server is an easy-to-use solution and does not require a lot of coding."

"The most valuable feature of the webMethods Integration Server is the built-in monitoring, auditing, RETS, and SOAP services."

"This solution has given us a competitive advantage because we have better automation and insight."

"My impression of webMethods.io's drag-and-drop interface to design workflows is actually amazing."

"What I found most valuable in webMethods Integration Server is that it's a strong ESB. It also has strong API modules and portals."

Cons

"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."

"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."

"The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."

"If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those."

"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."

"The price should be reduced to make it more affordable."

"Forced migration from MessageBroker to Universal Messaging requires large scale reimplementation for JMS."

"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier."

"Documentation needs tuning. There is a lot of dependency with SoftwareAG. Even with the documentation at hand, you can struggle to implement scenarios without SAG’s help. By contrast, IBM’s documentation is self-explanatory, in my opinion."

"webMethods.io needs to incorporate ChatGPT to enhance user experience. It can offer a customized user experience."

"The Software AG Designer could be more memory-efficient or CPU-efficient so that we can use it with middle-spec hardware."

"The initial setup of the webMethods Integration Server is not easy but it gets easier once you know it. It is tiresome but not difficult."

"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a very expensive solution."

"You can pick one of the hosted cloud services as opposed to owning it and doing it yourself. Your cost of ownership on the hardware, the data storage, and the maintenance all go down. It depends on what service you use."

"Sometimes we don't have a very clear idea what the licensing will entail at first, because it can be very customizable. On one hand, this can be a good thing, because it can be tailored to a specific customer's needs. But on the other hand it can also be an issue when some customer asks, "What's the cost?" and we can't yet give them an accurate answer."

"The vendor is flexible with respect to pricing."

"It is an expensive tool. I rate the product price a nine out of ten, where ten means it is very expensive."

"I am not involved in the licensing side of things."

"Pricing has to be negotiated with the local Software AG representative. SAG can always prepare an appropriate pricing model for every client."

"It is worth the cost."

"The solution's development license is free for three to six months. We have to pay for other things."

"The solution’s pricing is too high."
