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."Amazon EventBridge is very flexible."
"It has self-explanatory documentation and works with most projects."
"The best feature is that it allows you to perform recurring tasks efficiently."
"It's very simple to set up our cron with Amazon EventBridge."
"It is useful for exchanging information between applications."
"There are a lot of extensible options for security, i.e., various things you can do. It's pretty easy to navigate."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The first things are its simplicity and its robustness. Compared to any other product, it's the most robust I've worked with. And it's extremely easy to manage."
"This solution has improved and influenced the communication between different applications, then standardized that communication."
"The reliability of the queuing is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is the stability. It's perfect in this way."
"The MQ protocol is widely used across multiple applications and it's so simple for connectivity."
"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."
"Customer support response times could be improved."
"We have had scalability issues with some projects in the past."
"We need to have a better administration console and better monitoring features. Right now, they are not good and could be a lot better."
"I would like less updates from IBM MQ."
"Everything in the solution could be simplified a little. We have trouble with the configuration and cost which is mostly an internal issue, but nevertheless, the errors do come up when there are configuration changes across a specific version. We have slightly different versions, which may have slightly different configurations which cause issues."
"While there is support for API, it's not like the modern API capabilities."
"They need to add the ability to send full messages (header + payload) from the MQ Explorer program, not just the payload."
"IBM MQ could improve by adding more protocols or APIs for a standard application, such as MuleSoft."
