We performed a comparison between Amazon EventBridge and IBM MQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Oriented Middleware (MOM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best feature is that it allows you to perform recurring tasks efficiently."
"It has self-explanatory documentation and works with most projects."
"Amazon EventBridge is very flexible."
"It's very simple to set up our cron with Amazon EventBridge."
"The most valuable feature is that it's a very strong integration platform but it is quite a monolithic solution. It's got everything."
"Currently, we are not using many advanced features. We are only using point-to-point MQ. I have previously used features like context-based authentication, SSL authentication, and high availability. These are good and pretty cool features. They make your business reliable. For critical business needs, everyone uses only IBM MQ. It is the first choice because of its reliability. There is a one-send-and-one-delivery feature. It also has a no-message-loss feature, and because of that, only IBM MQ is used in banking or financial sectors."
"Reliability is the most valuable feature. MQ is used to support critical business applications."
"It is stable, reliable, and scalable."
"The message queue and the integration with any development platform/language, i.e., NET and Java, are the most valuable features."
"The solution is very easy to work with."
"The usability of the solution is very good."
"Overall the solution operates well and has good integration."
"Currently, it only supports triggering one job at a time. It would be helpful if it could handle multiple jobs or triggers simultaneously. What I mean is that currently, we can only perform one job at a time."
"It would be good if the solution provided a feature to add multiple Cron expressions in one rule."
"It would be easy if we had an option to select multiple things to run the script from Monday to Friday."
"Amazon EventBridge doesn't have the feature of event replay."
"It could get a face lift with a modern marketing campaign."
"It's hard to put in a nutshell, but it's sort of developed as more of an on-premise solution. It hasn't moved much away from that."
"We need to have a better administration console and better monitoring features. Right now, they are not good and could be a lot better."
"In terms of volume, it is not able to handle a huge volume. We also have limitations of queues related to IBM MQ. We often need to handle a very big volume, but currently we do have limitations. If those kinds of limitations could be relaxed, it would help us to work better."
"SonicMQ CAA (continuous availability architecture) functionality on auto failover and data persistence should be made available without a shared drive, as it exists in multi-instance queue managers."
"The product does not allow users to access data from API or external networks since it can only be used in a closed network, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The solution requires a lot of work to implement and maintain."
"It could provide more monitoring tools and some improvement to the UI. I would also like to see more throughput in future versions."
