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."webMethods Integration Server is an easy-to-use solution and does not require a lot of coding."
"Operationally, I consider the solution to be quite good."
"The synchronous and asynchronous messaging system the solution provides is very good."
"It’s fairly easy to view, move, and mange access across different components. Different component types are categorized and can be viewed in a web based administration console."
"The tool supports gRPC."
"It's a visual tool, so our transformations can be quickly implemented without a lot of fuss. The fact that we have an easy way to expose REST services is also very interesting. It offers the possibility to connect over GMS to synchronize message brokers."
"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."
"I feel comfortable using this product with its ease of building interfaces for developers. This is a better integration tool for integrating with various applications like Oracle, Salesforce, mainframes, etc. It works fine in the integration of legacy software as well."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"It was mostly easy to set up the product."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"The installation process is easy."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
"I would like to have a dashboard where I can see all of the communication between components and the configuration."
"The UI for the admin console is very old. It hasn't been updated for years and is pretty much the same one that we started with. This is something that could be refreshed and made more modern."
"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."
"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."
"The learning curve is a little steep at first."
"Support is expensive."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"The customization can be a bit difficult."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
"You cannot include the validation of XPath."
