Red Hat AMQ Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Senior Technical Specialist at Intuitive Technology Partners4.5I use Red Hat AMQ for reliable messaging in banking and logistics, valuing its security, stability, and ease of deployment. While it's costly and the portal could improve, overall, it meets my clients' needs effectively.
Java Developer at SCCON4.0I find Red Hat AMQ easy to learn and beneficial for organizing tools with microservices across different services. However, it could benefit from better documentation and training. I use it with other cloud providers for deployment.
Director at Absys3.5I manage a Master System Integration project using Red Hat AMQ for an airport. We chose it for its flexibility and cost-effectiveness compared to IBM MQ. However, we seek better message monitoring and face complexity due to its multiple components.
Sr. Enterprise Architect at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees4.5I find Red Hat AMQ a stable and performant messaging platform, leveraging Kafka and ActiveMQ with a unified interface. However, its slow adoption of new underlying technology versions means features arrive too slowly for me.
Sr. Enterprise Architect at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees4.0We use Red Hat Integration for messaging and API management, valuing its OpenShift compatibility, official support, and cost-effectiveness. While beneficial, I'd like better visualization tools and found the learning curve somewhat steep.
DevOps Solution Architect at Helvetia Versicherungen4.5I value Red Hat AMQ Streams for its operator automation, excellent support, and good stability/scalability, speeding up service delivery. Despite minor glitches and monitoring needing improvement, it's the best for self-operated systems.
Director, CTO, Co-Founder at a tech services company with 11-50 employees4.5I find Red Hat AMQ highly scalable, lightweight, and easy to manage, crucial for my OpenShift needs. It's reliable with easy setup. My main concern is the need to update support libraries. I rate it nine out of ten.
Solution Architect at Vlaanderen connect.2.0I've experienced significant instability and message loss with this message queuing solution, finding clustering and message ordering problematic. Technical support was unhelpful, though our poor infrastructure might contribute to issues. I rate it 4/10.
