"The interface has a great look and feel, and the functionality is so easy."
"The interface is really good."
"The OAuth feature is the most valuable feature for authentication."
"It integrates well with various servers."
"The main assets are its flow language, debugging, and Broker. Flow language is far better and more flexible for debugging."
"I like the stability of the webMethods Integration Server."
"It frankly fills the gap between IT and business by having approval and policy enforcement on each state and cycle of the asset from the moment it gets created until it is retired."
"Application integrations are offered out-of-the-box, and that is extremely important to us. This is one of the main use cases that we have for it. It is about 60 to 70 percent of the workload in our application today."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The solution has a very comprehensive and versatile set of connectors. I've been able to utilize it for multiple, different mechanisms. We do a lot of SaaS and we do have IoT devices and the solution is comprehensive in those areas."
"The most valuable feature of webMethods Integration Server is all the capabilities it provides. We leverage most of the features, that they have offered to us. Our vendor has made some additional features on top of the webMethods Integration Server and we use all the features together."
"The pricing model is problematic."
"There's no direct way to connect to Amazon APIs from Informatica Cloud."
"The setup is complex."
"There could be a lot more application integration."
"The interface needs some work. It is not very user-friendly."
"Upgrades are complex. They typically take about five months from start to finish. There are many packages that plug into webMethods Integration Server, which is the central point for a vast majority of the transactions at my organization. Anytime we are upgrading that, there are complexities within each component that we must understand. That makes any upgrade very cumbersome and complicated. That has been my experience at this company. Because there are many different business units that we are touching, there are so many different components that we are touching. The amount of READMEs that you have to go through takes some time."
"The certifications and learning resources are not exposed openly enough. For instance, they have a trial version which comes with only a few basic features, and I think that community-wise they need to offer more free or open spaces where developers can feel encouraged to experiment."
"Business monitoring (BAM) needs improvement because the analytics and prediction module very often has performance problems."
"It could be more user-friendly."
"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."
"We need more dashboards and reporting engines that can provide detailed information for management. In short, we need better analytics."
"The logging capability has room for improvement. That way, we could keep a history of all the transactions. It would be helpful to be able to get to that without having to build a standalone solution to do so."
