We performed a comparison between BizTalk Server and IBM BPM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Process Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The tool's most valuable feature is its integration with the banks. Its messaging and routing capabilities are good."
"I rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten."
"Essentially, you can do whatever you like with these systems, and you do not have to take care about the scaling because if one server is overloaded, it just forwards the message to the next server, even if it were designated to a specific server. It weeds out the messages according to the load. If you want to scale it, you just add new servers."
"The most valuable feature of BizTalk Server is that it will turn XML into flexible transactions."
"BIzTalk's integration with Visual Studio is the most valuable feature of this product."
"We made the transformation to agile. Altogether with BPM, it is the total package."
"The most valuable features are the integration capabilities - BPM can connect with almost any legacy or advanced system."
"This solution has always been lacking in the user interface (UI), it needed to be improved a lot. However, from the acquisition of Spark UI, the UI is much better. Overall the solution is robust and has the ability to integrate with any product for complex workflows."
"It is a stale solution."
"We can scale by increasing the infrastructure which is currently running."
"The installation was straightforward."
"Responsive Portal + Process Federation Server. This set of solutions offers a unified worklist to our customers."
"The initial setup is straightforward and easy. I would give it a nine out of ten."
"BizTalk Server is an outdated legacy system that does not support messaging."
"The deployment could be simplified."
"BizTalk is in the past, Microsoft is not going to evolve it any further or add any new features."
"The product's deployment can be quicker"
"It's a complex product because you have many degrees of freedom to connect different parts together. Whether it's sensible or not, is up to you, but the machine does allow it. But because of the vast degrees of freedom, it's complex."
"The pricing is a little bit high. It's gone up in cost."
"The integration could be improved."
"I would like to see more inclusion of RPA technologies. If we have more manual processes, we can use robotic process automation and integrate that in with the solution."
"Better integration with other products in the automation suite."
"If the processing gets better, it would be more efficient."
"We thought there might have been a little more discussion early on about, "Hey, if you're doing this, set it up this way," or some best practices or some guidance that we didn't get."
"Performance in the development environment space. I know that they have been taking it off the desktop version and putting on the web, and it is not 100% yet."
"From the testing perspective and minor enhancements perspective, customization is something that is a little tedious as compared to new tools. In addition, various open-source tools that are available are not working with IBM BPM."
