Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
We only use the basic features, but the most valuable one for us is the Publish-subscribe pattern. Performance-wise, this solution is really good. It has many interfaces and you can connect to any backend source that has another format, and convert it to the desired format. | The solution is stable. We have gone for months or years without any issue. There are no memory restarts, so from my point of view, it's very stable. I found it was quite easy to set up and implement. |
Cons | |
Technical support is very slow and needs to be improved. The images and size of the containers are too big and I think that they should be more lightweight. The user interface is designed mainly for experts, much in the way a BPM or another integration tool is. | The pricing model could be adjusted. The price should be lower. The web tools need to be updated. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
The price is very high and it's the main reason that we are searching for alternatives. This product is more expensive than competing products. IBM products are generally more stable and have more features, but also come at a greater cost. | We found other solutions were more costly. |
