Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"One of the most valuable features is that it's a simple development. It takes a short time to get services to work.""Good TIBCO BusinessWorks features are the admin console and the ability to roll back to the previous version.""The most valuable features are the stability and the time to market.""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 solution is very scalable. It can handle a lot. We have encryption plus integration servers running on that platform currently.""The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with.""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.""XML to JSON transformations, out-of-the-box, helps to build REST services."

"I like the tool's scalability.""The connectivity that the tool provides, along with the functionalities needed for our company's business, are some of the beneficial aspects of the product.""It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals.""Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration.""There's hardware, software and application integration, providing hosting flexibility.""Oracle's self-service capabilities, of which we make extensive use, is the most valuable feature.""The solution is scalable."

Cons
"The Business Studio tool can be improved, which is the tool for designing the processes. Improving the Business Studio tool will make this solution more stable. It has a steep learning curve, and it is pretty tough to learn.""The technical support's turnaround time is an area where TIBCO needs to consider improvements...Getting support from TIBCO on a particular issue takes a lot of turnaround time.""There is room for improvement on the learning side.""The communication protocols could be improved.""Improve Business Studio's stability to further minimize development time.""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.""I'd like to see a new cloud approach in the next release. They need to work on integrations, stability and management issues on their cloud platform.""The cost of the solution has room for improvement."

More TIBCO BusinessWorks Cons →

"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier.""webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors.""It is difficult to maintain.""Rules engine processes and BPM processes should be improved.""The solution's release management feature could be better.""The products, at the moment, are new and there should perhaps be support for the older version of the protocols.""The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."
  • "It is a bit expensive for medium-sized companies. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The existing licensing will not work because the product platform itself is different."
  • "Its price policy has changed quite a lot in the last two years. It was extremely expensive previously. Nowadays, you can buy a license for BusinessWorks for €2000. Looking at what you get in return in terms of support, TIBCO community, and stability, it is fairly reasonable. It is not too expensive."
  • "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."
  • "Licensing scheme is too rigid"
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten."
  • More TIBCO BusinessWorks Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The pricing is a yearly license."
  • "webMethods.io Integration's pricing is high and has yearly subscription costs."
