"It’s a JMS broker, so the fact that it can allow for asynchronous communication is valuable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the holding and forwarding."
"For reliable messaging, the most valuable feature of ActiveMQ for us is ensuring prompt message delivery."
"There is a vibrant community, and it is one of the strongest points of this product. We always get answers to our problems. So, my experience with the community support has been good."
"I appreciate many features including queue, topic, durable topic, and selectors. I also value a different support for different protocols such as MQTT and AMQP. It has full support for EIP, REST, Message Groups, UDP, and TCP."
"Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective."
"The solution is stable."
"Reliability for the messages is key. RabbitMQ ensures your messages are safe. They are not deleted and stuff."
"The product has been stable and I have never faced any kind of problems with it."
"It can be configured to be a very fast message broker. I like the stability, the built-in admin tools and plugin architecture."
"The most valuable feature for us is horizontal scaling."
"The loading speed is very good."
"The solution's best feature is its exceptional speed, delivering efficient utilization of resources."
"The tool needs to improve its installation part which is lengthy. The product is already working on that aspect so that the complete installation gets completed within a month."
"The solution can improve the other protocols to equal the AMQ protocol they offer."
"Needs to focus on a certain facet and be good at it, instead of handling support for most of the available message brokers."
"The clustering for sure needs improvement. When we were using it, the only thing available was an active/passive relationship that had to be maintained via shared file storage. That model includes a single point of failure in that storage medium."
"One potential area would be the complexity of the initial setup."
"I would like the tool to improve compliance and stability. We will encounter issues while using the central applications. In the solution's future releases, I want to control and set limitations for databases."
"The UI. It's both a good thing and a bad thing. The UI is too simple. Sometimes you wanna see the messages coming to the queue, and you have to refresh the dashboard, the console of the product."
"I would rate the stability a five out of ten because sometimes it gets stuck, and we have to restart it. We"
"Extra filters would be helpful."
"The product has to improve the crisis management, especially in memory issues."
"Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
"When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use."
"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting."
"VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system."
"One of the disadvantages, not a disadvantage with the product itself, but overall, is the expertise in the marketplace. It's not easy to find a Greenplum administrator in the market, compared to other products such as Oracle."
"The installation is difficult and should be made easier."
