Cons
"The initial setup can be a bit tricky."

More Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration Cons →

"They do not have a solid partner ecosystem, and they do not have a clear roadmap for down the line; they're missing that clear roadmap.""Patching or upgrading the product is a bit of a nightmare. It would be nice if they removed the installation manager port. We find it complicates upgrading and patching a great deal.""Map translator needs more enhancements.""When working on an elaborate rule, I end up creating it in notepad and then pasting it into the Extended Rule window, which is not convenient.""API-Fication required, and there should be more clarity on their cloud migration strategy.""There are also some features in the solution that are not user-friendly, like code lists with no search options. So, we must navigate hundreds of pages to check for one entry.""The initial setup is complex.""The user interface is outdated. B2B Integrator was developed in the United States in the nineties, and the graphical user interface hasn't improved since. It's tough because you have to program the software in XML. Nowadays, other methods are easier to work with."
