Spring Boot Reviews

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.

I work for customers in several industries and I mainly develop API and support applications and innovation with them, depending on the customer needs. I work in healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing.

The interaction with the database is great. Configuration management is useful as well. There are several features and I use many of them. 

The setup is straightforward.

It is a stable product.

The product scales well. 

Technical support is good.

It is a free open-source product with an active community.

Spring Boot is based on convention over configuration. Therefore, sometimes it seems that everything happens magically. It's difficult to explain to junior developers what it does under the hood.

There are no missing features at this time.

I've been using the solution for eight to nine years. 

It's very stable. I use it for most of my projects, and I don't have many problems with it. If there are problems, is due to the application being misconfigured. It's a configuration problem that is usually easy to solve.

It is scalable. It is a cloud-native technology. Therefore, it fits with most cloud environments and container platforms. There are not many problems in scaling it. The only problem is if it's not compiled natively, it's slow. That said, this is a Java problem, not a framework problem, let's say.

Technical support is good. 

Positive

I implement solutions with this framework. It doesn't need to be installed. It's straightforward to get started. It helps if you are a little experienced. 

I'd rate the implementation process a five out of five in terms of ease of execution. 

I am an employee in a company that heavily invests in this technology, and it pays off. Customers are happy. We are productive and developers are happy when working with it compared to other technologies. Therefore, my company is happy with this solution.

It's an open-source product, so we don't have a real partnership with the framework vendor. It is free to use. 

The solution is deployed both in the cloud and on-premises, depending on the customer's needs.

We work with the solution on behalf of clients. 

80% of my projects in the last eight years have been made with Spring Boot.

I'd advise new users to stay in touch with the community and explore the very valuable community resources.

I'd rate the solution a nine out of ten. It's very popular. It has a very engaged and very active community. The conference and the material online is great and it's usually very high quality. Once you've learned the solution, it allows you to be very productive.

We use this solution for human resources applications. 

This solution could be improved if it offered greater integration and was more compatible with other solutions. For this reason, we have moved to Microsoft. 

We have used this solution for one year.

The complexity of the initial setup is moderate, not straightforward. It took approximately one week. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

I primarily use the solution for web applications. 

The solution has been very stable.

We like that the product is open-source. We have a lot of community support and a lot of help available in the market. It is widely being used and therefore I get a lot of information on the internet.

The initial setup is simple. 

The cloud packaging is not very straightforward, I would say. For example, integrating with Azure or a microservice architecture or cloud-based architecture is ard. If they could improve and provide a whole package at once would be great.

I've been using the solution for four to five years at this point. 

In terms of stability, the performance is good and it is a reliable product. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

I'm not sure how many people use the solution within our organization, or how often. However, my understanding is that it is widely used. 

We have our own technical people on our team. We don't have any tech support as such, however, we do have support for our guys where we can ask for detailed support and information about the environment and all those things.

The implementation process is simple and straightforward. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

If we need to integrate it with third parties, we may get assistance, however, the process is pretty simple. 

The solution is open-source and free to use. We are not a premium member and therefore do not pay any licensing fees. 

I'm just an end-user of the solution.

I pretty much work on the open-source, like the Java Spring Boot. That's it.

I would recommend the solution to others. I'd rate the product at an eight out of ten.

The big thing in Spring Boot is that you don't need to make many manual configurations to set up some of the basic things I analyze. If you use Spring Core and want a JDBC connection, you need to consider a lot of XML files to have the JDBC connection done. In Spring Boots, it is simple to have the JDBC connection since the basic functions can be achieved with minimal codes or minimal configurations, making it a very powerful tool. There is not much custom configuration needed in Spring Boot.

With the boom of AI and machine learning, there is a need for a lot simpler integrations with them. The solution should have basic data models. There were regression and classification models before introducing data models back, and I feel we need some plugins to help to make it possible. In general, I want to see some integration in Spring Boot with artificial intelligence products.

I have been using Spring Boot for eight years. I am just a user of the product.

It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Considering that If we are using the correct microservices and architecture using Spring Boot, I rate the solution scalability a nine or ten out of ten.

If you are using a monolithic architecture with Java Spring Boot, then the tool will not provide enough scope for scalability. With microservices, you can deploy the tool with a lot of functions and make it scalable.

Around 50 people use the solution in my company, but there are a total of 80 people who know Spring Boot.

I was initially using Spring Core, the earlier version of Spring Boot.

The initial setup was not complex and was a simple process. If you want to have multiple integrations, the setup phase will become complex. There are not many complications during the setup phase in Spring Boot for basic functions or websites.

The solution is deployed on an embedded application server from Spring Boot, or we must deploy the tool using other application servers.

I use the free version of Spring Boot.

If you want a livelock, I think Flume and Spark are open for it, and it will be better than a custom Java application built by IBM Redbooks. In the fields of data management and data streaming, Java is flexible, while Spring Boot is more flexible than Java.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

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.

We are using Spring Boot for many use cases.

The most valuable feature of Spring Boot is the microservices and change information. Additionally, there are plenty of features.

The solution could improve its flexibility.

I have been using Spring Boot for approximately two years.

Spring Boot is stable.

The solution is scalable.

The support is good because of the online community, we receive a faster response.

I rate the support from Spring Boot a nine out of ten.
