Spring Boot Reviews

We use a variety of actuators. We have also been working with a Spring MVC as a plugin, so we Hibernate ORM like the one where we connect to the database. We use it a lot, and Spring Boot provides interfaces like run command line runner replication. The configuration setup in Spring Boot is pretty simplified compared to Hibernate ORM.

They have starter POMs and starter configurations for different use cases. But sometimes, when the dependencies within those starter packages clash, mismatch or have a hazard, it is hard to solve the issue. The dependency management should be improved so there can be a configuration showing that it's clashing.

We have been using this solution for about two years. It is cloud-based.

Regarding stability, if we are making a REST API, I would rate the stability a nine out of ten, but if we want to make a full-fledged application, I rate it a seven out of ten.

It is scalable. We are currently serving around 10000 users.

If we have any issues with the technology, we can search it on the internet, go to Stack Overflow or talk to some experts that we have.

The setup process is simple.

We mostly try to use open-source components because we get the maximum support on the open source, and it's pretty flexible to work with our developers with open source. Mostly, we use open source. In terms of deployment, it's on the higher side compared to other stacks because the application footprint is a bit larger.

The other technology stack would be a notice-based solution which is handy to start with. But once the scope of the application rises, the number of use cases doesn't feel stable. It keeps breaking because of the lack of a type system in Java. So for an enterprise application, the initial amount of time it takes to build might be later while the application runs. On the other hand, it is much more stable than a JavaScript environment.

I rate this solution an eight out of ten. It would be great to have additional features to improve the technology.

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.

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 Spring Boot for microservices, but for the logistic version. We also use the solution for traditional banking purposes.

The most valuable features of Spring Boot include being able to check all the logs and doing health checks for applications. We can also do monitoring more quickly, and use Spring Boot for production support, so when production goes up or down, we can bring up the application very quickly through Spring Boot.

Spring Boot is okay right now, but my team is looking for some integration where you can make a call to the JMS messaging service and other types of third-party integrations. If the integration with Spring Boot is improved, that would make the tool better.

What I'd like to see in the next release of Spring Boot is its integration or tie-up with messaging servers and third-party EFPs, as that would make it very good and more competitive versus other new solutions in the market.

I've been using Spring Boot for three and a half years now.

Overall, Spring Boot is a stable tool.

Spring Boot is a scalable tool. For example, in some microservices, you can just scale down if not used in most cases. For other micro solutions, you can bring up in the RAM space or in cluster mode. If you need more people to use Spring Boot, you can scale it, with no issues.

My rating for the Spring Boot technical support team is five out of five.

The initial setup for Spring Boot was straightforward, and it was completed within ten minutes.

We deployed Spring Boot in-house.

As Spring Boot is an open-source tool, it's free.

As microservice is a new concept, Spring Boot is the first solution we've used that offers it. Before, we used a monolithic application, the Spring MVC. Now people are moving to microservices, with each service being broken down into a simple service.

My company deployed Spring Boot by embedding it on a Tomcat server.

In the company, twenty people use Spring Boot for different microservices such as logistic applications for invoice creations, booking logistic services, invoicing, login authentication, load management services for creating loads, creating roads on maps such as Google Maps, etc.

My company relies on Spring Boot and uses it extensively as it's an open-source tool and so much has been added to it in terms of Java. It's a platform with independent capabilities that you can just deploy in Windows or Linux, and that's a Spring Boot advantage.

My advice to anyone looking into implementing Spring Boot is to go for it. If you need microservices, this is the best solution to use.

My rating for Spring Boot is nine out of ten.

We use Spring Boot to build our own microservices as per our platform requirements. We build everything from scratch. It is easy for developers to learn how to use and to start building. We have approximately 100 people in our team using it. 

Spring Boot facilitates the use of Java which is open source. We use Github and other libraries that are available which assist in the building we need to do.

This solution could be improved if there were more libraries available. We would also like more mobile platform functionality using low levels of code. 

We have been using Spring Boot for two years. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

Because Spring Boot operates using Java and is open source, there are a lot of artifacts available on the web. We have not needed to contact Spring Boot for customer support. 

We decided to use Spring Boot because it operates using Java which works on any platform including Windows, Linux, or Unix. It is easy to deploy in different environments.

The initial setup is generally straightforward but can be more complex when trying to build enterprise apps. The setup takes approximately one week. 

I would recommend this solution to those who have good Java knowledge and skills. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. The reason is that generally less code needs to be written when using it. The Spring Boot framework eliminates the need to write code from scratch. If you wanted to build your own product or solution, Spring Boot offers many possibilities. 

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.
