"The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized."

"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"The out-of-the-box features are simple and easy to use across the board."
"We can arrange data caching and look at the solid state. Also, the API gateway is a very good component that can handle relevant cachings and integrations, as well as and also load permitting."
"The ease of mapping... is the single largest feature. It gives us the ability to craft anything. A lot of single-purpose technologies, like Mirth, are good for healthcare messages, but we use webMethods not only for healthcare messages but for other business-related purposes, like integrations to Salesforce or integrations to Office 365. It's multi-purpose nature is very strong."
"It is a bundled product stack for A2A and B2B usage. It is one of the best products which I have used during my integration career."
"They are the building blocks of EAI in SAG products, and they offer a very good platform."
"When it comes to the user interface, I'm already really used to it. I cannot say anything against it. For me, it's easy to use."
"Application integrations are offered out-of-the-box, and that is extremely important to us. This is one of the main use cases that we have for it. It is about 60 to 70 percent of the workload in our application today."
"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."
"I like the stability of the webMethods Integration Server."
"When you do the data loading, it is slow."
"One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support."
"When it comes to data manipulation, there are features which are good, but one of the features which has really been missing in Spotfire is an offline ability for data manipulation."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"We would like to see some improvement in the default properties of the solution, so that there is less need for us to spend our time coding."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"The initial setup can be difficult."
"The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"It is quite expensive."
"I'd like to see the admin portal for managing the integration server go up a level, to have more capabilities and to be given a more modern web interface."
"This is a great solution and the vendor could improve the marketing of the solution to be able to reach more clients."
"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."
"As webMethods Integration Server is expensive, that's its area for improvement."
"The deployment should be simplified."
"When migration happens from the one release to an upgraded release from Software AG, many of the existing services are deprecated and developers have to put in effort testing and redeveloping some of the services. It would be better that upgrade releases took care to support the lower-level versions of webMethods."
"One area that needs improvement is the version upgrade process. Many customers I've worked with encounter challenges when transitioning from their current version, such as x or 9, to a newer version. The process is not smooth, and they must shift their entire website."
