We performed a comparison between Alteryx Designer and webMethods Integration Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use Alteryx Designer for analytics. It's quite helpful because once we set it up, we don't have to manually update or process data repeatedly. It saves time, especially for financial reporting, which is typically done monthly or quarterly. Once we set it up initially, we only need to make occasional updates if necessary."
"The product is very stable. The performance is reliable."
"I like Alteryx Designer's drag-and-drop feature, where you drag a component, configure it and quickly run it."
"When you open a raw Excel file, it can be hard to look at everything in detail. Alteryx makes it much easier to go through the data, summarize it, and use different tools for analysis."
"I have been using Alteryx Designer only for data modeling and data structuring."
"It has an easy setup process."
"The product offers very good analytics."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx Designer is its ability to select all the inputs and formulas."
"The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you."
"It’s fairly easy to view, move, and mange access across different components. Different component types are categorized and can be viewed in a web based administration console."
"The synchronous and asynchronous messaging system the solution provides is very good."
"We needed a tool that was able to orchestrate and help us configure our APIs so that we could maintain and see the heartbeat, traffic, trends, etc."
"The most valuable feature of webMethods Integration Server is all the capabilities it provides. We leverage most of the features, that they have offered to us. Our vendor has made some additional features on top of the webMethods Integration Server and we use all the features together."
"It integrates well with various servers."
"The Software AG Designer has been great. It's very intuitive."
"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."
"Sometimes, while getting data from a third-party product, the solution works slowly."
"The actual usage part of it needs to be explained more. It's too vague right now."
"It would be simpler if they provided a component where you could simply enter some parameters and see the results."
"The major concern in Alteryx Designer stems from the high costs attached to the product."
"If the price were reduced then it would be more competitive."
"The product could offer more connectors and more databases with support for the in-database function."
"Alteryx's data science and machine learning capabilities are where it loses out to DataIQ."
"The only thing is sometimes it can be a bit slow."
"wM SAP Adapter User Guide - Example, like Message Broker setup was unclear, leading to issues during Testing and we had refer the internet forums to understand that there is a Message Broker Cleanup utility and that needs to be setup as well."
"Need to see more API portal features like monetizing APIs and private cloud readiness."
"webMethods Integration Server could improve on the version control. I'm not sure if Web Method has some kind of inbuilt integration with Bitbucket or GitHub or some kind of version control system. However, that's one area where they can improve."
"The product needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."
"We'd like for them to open up to a more cloud-based solution that could offer more flexibility and maybe a better rules engine or more integration with rules engines."
"For code version control, you need to use some external software."
"I would like to see the price improve."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
