JBoss Reviews

The class loader isolation is good.

The deployment of data sources could be improved.

I've used it for one and half years.

No issues encountered.

This depends on the load of the server. We did have some issues mainly because of the application itself.

No issues encountered.

Customer Service:

I've not used customer service.

Technical Support:

I've not used technical support.

We switched because of the nature of the application and technology.

I always design my systems simple and keep them simple as possible.

We implemented it with in-house team. We like to keep the knowledge in-house.

It was crucial and it definitely paid off.

Keep the systems simple. Try to work with open-source solutions and pay for technical support and subscription to support the projects.

Yes, I always and regularly evaluate. In case of Java, we evaluated all applications servers which support JEE full profile.

I was using Apache Tomcat, JBoss AS (RedHat), WebMethods (Software AG) and IIS (Microsoft). All of them have they specialities, but depending on the goals and purpose it’s quiet easy to make a choice. Products based on Microsoft .NET do not give companies lot of options; either with Server Operating System shipped IIS, or the developer version called IIS Express. Applications written in Java, n opposite, can be accommodated on several fully profiled or non-fully-profiled application or web servers.

Only have one application per server if possible. Do not over complicate it, and keep the variance in the configuration simple as possible.

This open source Application server is a good choice for Enterprises using J2EE . This gives much better value than Websphere and Weblogic. Easy to setup and self contained software. The product offers advanced J2EE features like queues and topics. Also provides for failover, high availability, support. Webserver can directly communicate with the database, Much cheaper implementation.

Level of customization is low as compared to other competitive products.Runtime diagnostics and DR (Disaster Recovery) features are limited as compared to Weblogic and Websphere. Since oracle now has Weblogic , they are introducing integration of other products like coherence into it.

We chose JBossas it scales well, supports multiple nodes redundancy and has an integrated Tomcat which can be customized.The price is a big plus and out of the box implementation is good. Most people are skeptical to run Enterprise applications with ope source jboss.

We provide the very basic JBoss setup for the implementation and the setup.

The solution's support is very good for repairing components. We just need to raise a case, and the support team will reply.

The solution's pricing could be improved because it is not cheap.

I have been working with JBoss for a couple of years.

I rate JBoss an eight out of ten for stability.

Two to three of our customers are using JBoss.

I rate JBoss an eight out of ten for scalability.

The initial setup could be simple or very complex, depending on the solution.

It takes weeks to deploy JBoss. The solution's deployment includes downloading the installer and then deploying the server.

JBoss is an expensive solution. Customers need to pay for a yearly license for JBoss.

One engineer is required for the deployment and maintenance of JBoss.

I would recommend users to go ahead and use JBoss.

Overall, I rate JBoss a five out of ten.
