"webMethods Integration Server is an easy-to-use solution and does not require a lot of coding."

"Issues with the support, the fees, and the termination of the professional services are reasons we are looking for other solutions."

"The intermediate version that we are using has stability issues. These stability issues should be resolved, but it seems like TIBCO is not focusing on resolving these issues. The resolution timelines are quite high even for high-priority incidents. Its price should be lower. Its licensing cost is considerably high as compared to other ESBs."
"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."
"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."
"The product needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."
"This solution could be improved by offering subscription based licensing."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
"It is quite expensive."
"When migration happens from the one release to an upgraded release from Software AG, many of the existing services are deprecated and developers have to put in effort testing and redeveloping some of the services. It would be better that upgrade releases took care to support the lower-level versions of webMethods."
"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."
