During my career I have worked with a lot of different products and I generally only go on to work with those products that I feel are worth being called good products. We also work with IBM and Primeur, and I can say that webMethods ActiveTransfer is a very good product. It's easy to use, and easy enough to install and deploy new workflows. At the same time, since we have been having numerous issues with their support in terms of response times, I must say that if their support doesn't improve, we may eventually have to stop promoting this product to our customers. I would rate webMethods ActiveTransfer an eight out of ten.
I rate webMethods ActiveTransfer eight out of 10. They only need to improve a few minor things to bring it to the current market standard. My recommendation to webMethods is to add more flexibility to the file-watching mechanism to reduce the load on the RAM and CPU to a minimum, which will help when we are dealing with large numbers of massive files, especially in the retail environment. We used to deal with millions of small files. When you are dealing with these kinds of files, you need to ensure that there is an internal reconciliation process. When you're reading and transferring thousands of files, you use a parallel instead of sequential mechanism to ensure all the files reach a target and that the reconciliation process is done automatically.
