Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The tool's most valuable feature is its integration with the banks. Its messaging and routing capabilities are good.""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.""We can handle a large number of messages without any issues, ensuring that everything runs smoothly.""BIzTalk's integration with Visual Studio is the most valuable feature of this product.""I rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten.""The most valuable feature of BizTalk Server is that it will turn XML into flexible transactions."

"We used it pretty heavily in gathering data, which goes to our VPs. They are able to base their next revenue planning based on this metric. So, it has been invaluable.""From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic.""It's scalable.""The most valuable feature is the map visuals that help us connect to the geo-specialized data which is more advanced than other solutions.""The solution is an affordable one.""I appreciate Spotfire's range of visualization options, advanced analytics features, and seamless integration with other TIBCO products.""The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product.""We particularly like the data angling feature of this solution. This gives us the ability to work on data transformations, join files, and carry out other data preparation tasks all in a single tool."

Cons
"BizTalk Server is an outdated legacy system that does not support messaging.""BizTalk is in the past, Microsoft is not going to evolve it any further or add any new features.""The product's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""The deployment could be simplified.""The product could be improved in monitoring, managing, and support functionalities.""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."

More BizTalk Server Cons →

"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.""One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support.""When you do the data loading, it is slow.""The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier.""The Text Area feature needs to be more user-friendly. It is a little clunky to use, and it is difficult to consistently format text.""Print capability and trigger-based events.""The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved.""We encountered difficulties connecting the special data sets, as the post data set did not contain any shared columns, making it difficult to establish a connection between the data sets."
