We performed a comparison between IBM WebSphere Message Broker and Workday Business Process Framework based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It has many interfaces and you can connect to any backend source that has another format, and convert it to the desired format."
"We only use the basic features, but the most valuable one for us is the Publish-subscribe pattern."
"Message Broker is valuable because most of the applications are using MQ. Even in my current engagement, the few applications which I audit to onboard the bank are using MQ."
"The most valuable feature of IBM WebSphere Message Broker is the ability to facilitate communication with legacy systems, offering a multitude of great capabilities. For example, if there is a mainframe system in place with a web service serving as the front end. In that case, the solution enables efficient protocol transformations to convert all request payloads into a format that the legacy systems can accept, rendering the integration and transformation processes seamless and highly effective."
"The transactions and message queuing are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The solution has good integration."
"Integration and mapping are easy, which is a major advantage."
"Performance-wise, this solution is really good."
"The tool helps to do multiple things like assigning tasks, approvals, report creation, and communications."
"I find it easy to navigate, especially when it comes to tasks like extending offer letters. Everything is configured into a single template, eliminating the need to create multiple offer letters for different positions. The effectiveness, user-friendliness, and adaptability to new features are key strengths of Workday. It's also convenient for sourcing, allowing us to revisit candidates who performed well but didn't pass the interview. Workday's harmonized platform brings everything together in one place, making it efficient and streamlined."
"It is efficient to fine-tune some of our organizational processes and policies."
"I know that Message Broker was a very tightly copied product with another IBM product, that is, IBM MQ. I would like to have a little bit more decoupling from the IBM MQ because it should not be a prerequisite for IBM WebSphere Message Broker usage."
"The user interface is designed mainly for experts, much in the way a BPM or another integration tool is."
"Technical support is good but they could have a better response time."
"Stability and pricing are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"The images and size of the containers are too big and I think that they should be more lightweight."
"It is currently a weighty product."
"Today I probably wouldn't go for Message Broker because of the cost structure, support, and the whole ecosystem around IBM."
"Technical support is very slow and needs to be improved."
"At times, I've heard from our technical team that configuring or implementing certain requests from senior leadership can be challenging. There seem to be constraints in fulfilling specific requirements. Unfortunately, I don't have detailed information as it's what I've gathered from discussions with the technical team. There might be limitations in what can be achieved, but I can't provide specific examples without more context. Certainly, there's room for enhancement, especially in terms of regular upgrades. I've noticed that there aren't many updates, and it would be beneficial to have improvements. Regular upgrades and the introduction of new, innovative solutions could make our work more efficient and easier to manage."
"We encountered delays with the tool."
"There could be more automation included."
