"The performance is better than doing it in some alternative ways. We don't have to worry about so much manual work."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"The most valuable thing is that it is easy to connect with Microsoft tools. In Europe, particularly in France, a lot of companies use Excel, SQL Server, and other Microsoft tools, and it is easier to connect SSIS with Microsoft tools than other products."
"Overall, it's a good product."
"Built in reports show package execution and messages. Logging can also be customized so only what is needed is logged. There is also an excellent logging replacement called BiXpress that provides both historical and real-time monitoring which is more efficient and much more robust than the built-in logging capabilities. And none of this requires custom coding to make it useful unlike many other ETL tools."
"It's already very user-friendly and has a good dashboard."
"SSIS' best feature is SFTP connectivity."

"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."
"The ease of mapping... is the single largest feature. It gives us the ability to craft anything. A lot of single-purpose technologies, like Mirth, are good for healthcare messages, but we use webMethods not only for healthcare messages but for other business-related purposes, like integrations to Salesforce or integrations to Office 365. It's multi-purpose nature is very strong."
"Application integrations are offered out-of-the-box, and that is extremely important to us. This is one of the main use cases that we have for it. It is about 60 to 70 percent of the workload in our application today."
"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."
"We can arrange data caching and look at the solid state. Also, the API gateway is a very good component that can handle relevant cachings and integrations, as well as and also load permitting."
"In terms of its performance, it could be better. That could be something that would be easy and welcomed as an upgrade."
"The solution could improve by having quicker release updates."
"At one point, we did have to purchase an add-on."
"I would like to see more standard components out of the box, such as SFTP, and Data Compression components."
"Involving a data lake or data engineering aspects would be useful. While it is there, we need more features included."
"We'd like more integration capabilities."
"The security could be improved, as it is more important in our context."
"The performance of this solution is not as good as other tools in the market."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
"The deployment should be simplified."
"webMethods Integration Server could improve on the version control. I'm not sure if Web Method has some kind of inbuilt integration with Bitbucket or GitHub or some kind of version control system. However, that's one area where they can improve."
"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."
"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."
