"The support is fast and reliable."
"There's good documentation and a pretty good community surrounding the product."
"The solution's support is very good for repairing components."
"The most valuable thing about JBoss is how easy it is to install and manage it on-premise, making the process simple."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The product integrates well with Java applications."
"It is a Java-based product, so it is pretty straightforward. It is pretty easy from a developer's perspective. It is also pretty reliable and scalable."
"The product's installation phase is easy."
"We have some hosted servers as well as some of our own. It performs well."
"It's a scalable product."
"In WebLogic, the most useful feature is the UI administration console from where we can configure everything, such as security access, and we can start and stop it graphically. That's the best feature of WebLogic Server."
"It has good integration with security features, including OWASP."
"Oracle WebLogic Server has a bunch of ready features that are easy to use and understand."
"In the newer system, reconfigurability and the fact that it is easy to configure, make it very valuable."
"Oracle WebLogic Server is more secure and has full functionalities that can be used for big applications."
"JBoss is not as reliable and stable as WebLogic."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required. The product could be made cheaper."
"The tool's documentation could be improved to explain its usage and functionalities clearly. Having accessible documentation would save time for leaders like me when juniors seek information about it. The documentation should be self-explanatory and guide users on how to utilize the tool."
"The stability of the solution could improve with Microsoft Windows."
"The solution could improve by providing more integration."
"It would be great if the product came with a feature where the remarks made on the board can be saved on an individual's laptop to make it more user-friendly."

"In terms of monitoring, the old version was somewhat limited in flexibility, lacking the ability to easily adjust configurations."
"They should improve the solution's garbage collection feature."
"I've had issues with some of the tracking features tracking and have had to go back to several generations of code to fix problems where things were touched."
"The logs consultant, since it tends to be more in the server, we do need complete consult logs for a lot of different files."
"Oracle WebLogic Server's configuration could be improved because we need to do multiple configurations when setting up anything."
"In terms of what could be improved, maybe something related to the processes automation or starting and stopping the processes, because often WebLogic comes with something called Node Manager. Node Manager needs to be configured and administrated manually."
"There's a bug related to the managed services."
"If you want to use Oracle products to the fullest with enhanced customizations, you need to get trained. There is enough documentation and the flexibility to configure the application to your needs but you will need to spend more time gathering the knowledge."
"The ticket-raising process is very time-consuming"
