We performed a comparison between PubSub+ Event Broker and VMware RabbitMQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Queue (MQ) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One of the main reasons for using PubSub+ is that it is a proper event manager that can handle events in a reactive way."
"We've built a lot of products into it and it's been quite easy to feed market data onto the systems and put entitlements and controls around that. That was a big win for us when we were consolidating our platforms down. Trying to have one event bus, one messaging bus, for the whole globe, and consolidate everything over time, has been key for us. We've been able to do that through one API, even if it's across the different languages."
"The event portal and the diversity of deployment options in a hybrid landscape are the most valuable features."
"Going from something where we had outages and capacity issues constantly to a system that was able to scale with the massive market data and messaging spikes that happened during the initial stages of the COVID crisis in March, we were able to scale with 40 plus percent growth in our platform over the course of days."
"Guaranteed Messaging allows for us to transport messages between on-prem and the cloud without any loss of data."
"When we went to add another installation in our private cloud, it was easy. We received support from Solace and the install was seamless with no issues."
"We like the seamless flexibility in protocol exchange offering without writing a code."
"The valuable feature of PubSub+ Event Broker is the speed of processing, publishing, and consumption."
"The most valuable feature is asynchronous calls, which are easy to configure."
"I like the high throughput of 20K messages/sec, and that it supports multiple protocols."
"We use VMware RabbitMQ to transfer information from one point to another."
"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable."
"Companies can scale the solution, so long as they have server room."
"It is easy to use. The addition of more queues and more services can be managed very easily."
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
"The security is great."
"The ease of management could be approved. The GUI is very good, but to configure and manage these devices programmatically in the software version is not easy. For example, if I would like to spin up a new software broker, then I could in theory use the API, but it would require a considerable amount of development effort to do so. There should be a tool, or something that Solace supports, that we could use for this, e.g., a platform like Terraform where we could use infrastructure as code to configure our source appliances."
"The licensing and the cost are the major pitfalls."
"We have requested to be able to get into the payload to do dynamic topic hierarchy building. A current workaround is using the message's header, where the business data can be put into this header and be used for a dynamic topic lookup. I want to see this in action when there are a couple of hundred cases live. E.g., how does it perform? From an administration perspective, is the ease of use there?"
"We've pointed out some things with the DMR piece, the event mesh, in edge cases where we could see a problem. Something like 99 percent of users wouldn't ever see this problem, but it has to do with if you get multiple bad clients sending data over a WAN, for example. That could then impact other clients."
"If you create one event in the past, you cannot resend it."
"It could be cheaper. It could also have easier usage. It is a brilliant product, but it is quite complex to use."
"Some of the feature's gaps with some of the open-source vendors have been closed in a lot of ways. Being more agile and addressing those earlier could be an area for improvement."
"The integrations could improve in PubSub+ Event Broker."
"The solution needs improvement on performance."
"VMware RabbitMQ's configuration process could be easier to understand."
"They should improve on the ability to scale your queues in a very simple and elegant way with the same power that they have would be great."
"The debugging capabilities and testing flexibilities need to be improved."
"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting."
"The product is pretty hard to configure."
"The user interface could be improved."
"I’d like this dashboard to use web sockets, so it would actually be in real time. It would slightly increase debugging, etc."
