Spring Boot Reviews

It's being used for the front-end web portion of our application.

It simplifies the development environment for developing web applications.

The setup is straightforward. 

We have found the product to be stable so far. 

Nothing really comes to mind in terms of areas of improvement. It works well. There's nothing that stands out that I would look to be improved with that software.

I have some experience with the solution. My teams have worked with it for a bit longer.

The solution seems stable. I haven't dealt with bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

I haven't tried to scale the solution. I'm not sure how well it would scale, having never tried. 

We mostly have software developers using the solution. It's not meant for everyone in the company to access. We just have small teams on it. 

I've never needed to call technical support. I couldn't really comment on how helpful or responsive they would be.

The solution is very straightforward and easy to implement. It's not a complex deployment process. 

I can't speak to the exact pricing of the product. I don't handle licensing. 

My understanding is that it is comparable to what else is in the market. I don't know of many competitors for it in the Java environment. Everybody seems to use Spring Boot.

I would recommend potential users to try it, particularly if they're developing web-based applications. It would make sense for them to try and implement it as a Spring Boot application instead of just the base Java application.

I'd rate the product nine out of ten. It was easy to install, there wasn't any expense involved, and it seemed to work as designed.

We use Spring Boot to create different microservices. The configuration is very easy. We also make use of the in-built server. Spring Boot Two has reactive programming and that is valuable for microservices development. We have more than 1,000 users supported by Spring Boot. 

We use this solution on-premise as well as on the public cloud.

The community surrounding Spring Boot is really good. If you face any issue with Spring Boot, you will get the answer from the community. Spring Boot also provides smooth integration with other solutions. A module is provided for each integration including for Kafka and DB.

Building a new product in Spring Boot can take a long time since the solution uses reflection. This is one area the solution could be improved. 

I have been using this solution for more than five years. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

I have not needed to contact support because I rely on the documentation provided. 

We switched to using Spring Boot to make our application more scalable and to be able to make custom configurations. If you have deployed something and you want to customize it, you can easily adjust it with the Spring Boot application without doing any code changes.

The initial setup is very straightforward using the Spring Initializr. You can configure any project in a matter of seconds. It creates an executable JAR and with a single command, it will run automatically.

This is an open source solution. 

I would advise others that it is important to know Java well. I would also recommend getting to know how Spring Boot works internally to use you make use of the proper configuration. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten as 99% of our requirements are met. 

It's a framework that is very easy to access and easy to configure. It's inbuilt to the Apache Tomcat server, and it's very lightweight. 

We like that it is an open-source tool. 

The solution is very lightweight.

It's simple to access.

The design is great. I can easily access and just pull API if I want to trigger any URL in that application.

One of the best aspects is that it is cloud native. 

Even if I want to implement a microservice that's in it, I can design the microservices. 

In terms of transactions, I can do a bunch of different services and break them down into microservices. I can do that using the RESTful API if I need to send it from the front end to the back end. 

It works well with GitHub. It's a very flexible way to configure the JavaBeans, XML configurations, and databases. We can manage REST endpoints, and I can use RESTful API, which makes it easy to auto-configure. There is no manual configuration needed. 

In terms of the Spring Boot application, the application's startup time needs to be improved. We'd like to see more speed and better performance. 

We'd like them to develop more supporting testing. We'd like to see it be more flexible.

It would be ideal if they continued to prioritize security.

They should ensure that auto-configuration related to Spring MVC will be added into any new features.

It's stable and very easy to create a standalone application. The performance is good and it is reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

I've never had to contact support. I use a full-stack website. I can find many answers I'm looking for online. 

In terms of the initial setup, the basics are very important. If I know Java, for example, if I know Java, it will be easier. I have Java experience, and that's huge. I have more than seven years of experience, and I have worked in different frameworks. Therefore, for me, it's easy to understand the design of the architecture, which makes implementation simple. 

A cloud deployment won't take that much time. Every two weeks, I have the deployment using an Agile sprint. I can deploy within five minutes. It does, however, depend on the requirement. We tend to follow the documentation while moving into production. 

The solution is open-source and free to use. I'm not aware of the pricing of the commercial version. 

We are a customer and end-user.

If you plan to use this product for the first time, I suggest doing some research. It's easy to use and doesn't require that much configuration, however, it's simpler if you understand a little bit about it. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Spring Boot is deployed on a Azure Kubernetes container.

If I have to interact with a core banking system or any other application, I use  Spring Boot.

The most valuable feature of Spring Boot is all the interactions to various applications happen using Spring Boot.

Spring Boot could improve the interface, error handling, and integration performance.

I have been using Spring Boot for approximately four years.

The stability of Spring Boot depends on the hardware being use. If you have good hardware the solution will be stable.

The scalability of Spring Boot is good.

We have more than 1,000 users using this solution.

I have not used the technical support from Spring Boot.

The intiial setup of Spring Boot is simple.

Spring Boot is an open source solution, it is free to use.

We compared Spring Boot to .NET and we found Spring Boot to be better.

I rate Spring Boot an eight out of ten.

We use this solution for web applications and to handle data relevant to our customers. 

This solution is really user friendly. In terms of prototyping, it's really fast to build the applications we want to test to complete a proof of concept. In this regard, Spring Boot is really a good framework compared to Java EE because it has less boilerplate codes, and we program conventions over configurations.

This is a really good solution for me and I can't think of anything that can be improved.

I have been using this solution for five years. 

This is a stable solution. We have not experienced any issues or bugs that we were not able to fix. 

This is a scalable solution. We have an application that consumes around 500,000 messages per second and it's handling it quite well. This does depend on the capabilities of your hardware. 

I have previously used Java EE. When using Java EE, you have to have a separate application server. For Spring Boot, it has an embedded server so from the get go, you can easily run your application. With Java EE, you have to set up the application server first to be able to run it.

There is also a difference in the amount of boilerplate code that you need to write when using each of the systems. Spring Boot favors convention over configuration so there are no big challenges when it comes to setting it up. When using Java EE, you have to make sure that your dependencies work together.

The initial setup is very easy. You just need to specify some of the basic dependencies and you're good to go. You can have a running application by writing one class. Setting this up took us less than five minutes. We currently have just over 20 people using this solution. 

This solution is free unless you apply for support.

I would advise others to read the Spring Boot documentation because it is by far the best that I've seen when it comes to Java frameworks. You don't need to pay for courses, tutorials or training. Spring Boot also has a large community. Anything that you might want to ask about Spring Boot or any issue that you might encounter, has answers provided for by the community. 

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten. 

The solution is stable and has a vast community. It works on Java-based language and has an efficient framework.

They should include tutorial videos for understanding new technologies.

I have been using the solution for three years.

The solution's framework is stable. I rate its stability a ten. 

I rate the solution's scalability a ten.

The solution's initial setup process is straightforward. I rate the process an eight. It requires specialized knowledge of Java. It takes one week for simple APIs. Whereas it might take a month or two for complex projects.

I rate the solution a nine. I advise others to know new ways of configuring it.

I primarily use the solution at the point of sale. It covers inventory management at multiple locations and reports as well. 

The solution is easier to use than Jakarta. It's easier to get things set up. 

The simplicity is excellent. 

The stability is fine.

It is not hard to set up. 

The solution is free. It's open-source. 

The database connectivity could be better in terms of dealing with multi-tenant systems. If that could be simplified, that would be better. Currently, we have to use a customer's implementation. 

I'm not missing any features. 

I've been using the solution for about three years. 

It is stable and reliable. We've had a few issues. However, those were related to coding and refactoring to improve scalability. 

The solution is very scalable. 

I've never dealt with support. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be. 

I'm also familiar with Jakarta. Spring Boot is easier in general. 

The initial setup is very easy. It's not difficult at all. 

I don't handle the deployment process. However, we do use Docker and Kubernetes during deployment. Usually, the deployment is automated, which makes it quick to get going.

The maintenance is easy and minimal. I have no trouble maintaining it. 

The solution is free to use and open-source. 

I'm a developer, not an end-user. 

I'm looking at the latest version of the solution. I'm not on it just yet. I need to move to version three, and right now, I am on version two. 

I would highly recommend the solution in general. I'd rate it eight out of ten. 

We host a web app where we have different APIs of the e-commerce marketplace and we use Spring Boot on the backend.

The solution reduces our development time.

Spring Boot allows us to quickly develop what we need.

The solution has some vulnerabilities and fails our security audits, forcing us to keep fixing the solution.

I have been using the solution for three years.

I give the stability an eight out of ten.

I give the scalability an eight out of ten.

We have 20 people using the solution in our organization.

We previously used Django and switched to Spring Boot because my current client is more interested in Java.

The initial setup was straightforward. The deployment took a few days because we needed to get permission which requires going through a certain approval process.

I give the solution an eight out of ten.

We require around five engineers for maintenance.

I recommend the solution to others.
