"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value.""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.""The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you.""It integrates well with various servers.""One [of the most valuable features] is the webMethods Designer. That helps our developers develop on their own. It's very intuitive for design. It helps our developers to speed the development of services for the integrations.""What I like best about webMethods Integration Server is its portfolio of connectors.""Best feature is Insight for monitoring, and as a debugging tool. It has saved us a lot of time during crisis situations.""The Software AG Designer has been great. It's very intuitive."

Cons
"I am expecting new updates to improve the software.""I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose.""The initial setup can be quite slow and finicky.""The OpenAPI is good, but it is not enough. It lacks out-of-box integrations with popular web services.""It would be wonderful to have newer version releases more frequently, but it is quite a minor con.""The initial setup seemed a bit complex, and there is no great documentation.""This solution lacks API integration with some popular websites.""We are using the backdated version of this software. That is why we lack of some features. I hope when we update the version, then all the problems will be solved."

"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support.""We got the product via a reseller, and the support from the reseller has been less than desirable.""Business monitoring (BAM) needs improvement because the analytics and prediction module very often has performance problems.""Other products have been using AI and cloud enhancements, but webMethods Integration Server is still lagging in that key area.""On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with.""There should be better logging, or a better dashboard, to allow you to see see the logs of the services.""The product must add more compatible connectors.""​Large file handling is pretty hard comparatively to other middleware tools."

    webMethods Integration Server is widely considered to be the best integration server available in the marketplace today. The solution can help users integrate everything and anything.

    webMethods Integration Server allows organizations to display and integrate existing and new business activities. The solution offers components that help users create, test, and install new services. webMethods Integration Server can automate, organize, and construct various gathered services and traditional legacy systems into productive value-added processes. webMethods Integration Server works as a secure platform for distributing and running services. The solution obtains and translates user requests, recognizes and records the requested service, translates and moves the data in the necessary format, receives the information back, and returns the information to the user in the appropriate original format. webMethods is the primary solution used by enterprise organizations for integrating functional coordination with application servers, custom applications, and databases. webMethods makes it easy for enterprise organizations to share electronic documents seamlessly.

    Users have several options to audit webMethods Integration Server processes using some of the component metrics below:

    • Adapters: Using the SOA extension for webMethods, users can easily monitor the performance of every adapter users have deployed. Available metrics include Adapter Services, Adapter Connection Pools, and Adapter Notifications nodes.

    • Business Processes: A business process is a process that uses a specific set of rules to perform tasks in a prescribed order. Many business processes depend on the successful integration of numerous systems, involving many people in varying roles. With the SOA extension for webMethods, users can easily monitor that workflow, ensuring that processes are being performed as defined.

    • Java Services: This includes services created in Java or in languages coordinated with Java.

    • WebServices: This includes services regarding webserver endpoints and performance.

Documents can be published locally on the server or to the broker that will send the document out. A JMS trigger receives inbound messages and then processes those messages accordingly.
