We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried.""We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate.""The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors).""Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features.""It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput.""The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations.""It is a scalable solution.""Easy integration with Salesforce"

"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API.""It has a good integration server, designer, and a very good API portal.""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.""Segregation of deployment for the environments is the most valuable feature of the solution.""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 solution's ease-of-use is its most valuable feature, in which complex issues may be resolved.""Operationally, I consider the solution to be quite good.""When it comes to the user interface, I'm already really used to it. I cannot say anything against it. For me, it's easy to use."

Cons
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security.""The initial setup can be a little bit difficult.""Looping through complex data structures can be difficult.""Its API management capabilities need improvement.""In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations.""Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs.""I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot.""There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."

More Jitterbit Harmony Cons →

"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData.""As webMethods Integration Server is expensive, that's its area for improvement.""One area that needs improvement is the version upgrade process. Many customers I've worked with encounter challenges when transitioning from their current version, such as x or 9, to a newer version. The process is not smooth, and they must shift their entire website.""We need more dashboards and reporting engines that can provide detailed information for management. In short, we need better analytics.""The orchestration is not as good as it should be.""We got the product via a reseller, and the support from the reseller has been less than desirable.""webMethods Integration Server needs to add more adapters.""The stability of the various modules of the product suite have been a bit of a concern lately. Though their support team is always easy to reach out to, I would prefer it not come to that."

    Overview

    Open source integration platform designed to handle the most complex integration challenges between legacy, enterprise and On-Demand applications. 

    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.

    • XSLT Services: This service will allow users to transform XML data into other formats and includes the transformation to other services.

    • Thread Pools: This metric uses threads to conduct services, gather documents from the webMethods Broker, and initiate triggers. 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.

    Reviews from Real Users:

    “There are a few things about this product that we definitely like. It is very robust. If you build it nicely, you can't go wrong with it. It's rock solid. The development is very fast. If you know what you're doing, you can develop something very easy and very fast.” - Rohit S., Integration Lead at a wellness & fitness company

    “One of the most important features is that it gives you the possibility to do low-level integration. We can meet any requirements through customizations, transformations, or the logic that needs to be put in. When clients come to me with any problem, in about 99% of cases, I say, "Yes, it is feasible to do through webMethods." It has reached such a level of flexibility and maturity. Most of the things are available out of the box, and even if something is not available out of the box, we can customize it and deliver it for a client's requirements.” - Sushant D., IT specialist at Accenture
