TIBCO licensing is yearly and very costly for a company like ours. There are no extra costs involved.

We have an issue at the moment with upgrading. We wanted an upgrade and to do a clean install on another environment and get rid of the old environment afterward. But to do that, there's an overlap between the two systems, so TIBCO wants us to buy extra licensing to change environments, which is unfair to me.

The solution is too expensive. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there, particularly because there are so many open-source competitors on the market. I don't know the exact numbers, however. 

I don't have the prices of the products, but I know that TIBCO is not a cheap solution. I think that this solution is more suitable for large companies because I don't think that small- or medium-sized companies would have the money for this solution. WSO2 has the community version for free, so many of the smaller companies can use it. I'm not sure what the prices are for support, though, so I suppose the support for WSO2 is not cheap either. 

The payments made for service are the only addition to the standard licensing fees that we pay for the solution.

It is a bit expensive for medium-sized companies. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The existing licensing will not work because the product platform itself is different.

BusinessWorks is competitively priced. It's a good deal.

The product is not cheap. However, the pricing is reasonable.

I think BusinessWorks is more expensive compared to other products. We have the ELA, so at least we have some sort of bargain or discount with that. But for a start-up, it's very expensive compared to other ESBs. 

This solution is more suited for large enterprises. For someone who's just starting up without enough CapEx or OpEx, it's going to be a bit expensive. 

Its price policy has changed quite a lot in the last two years. It was extremely expensive previously. Nowadays, you can buy a license for BusinessWorks for €2000. Looking at what you get in return in terms of support, TIBCO community, and stability, it is fairly reasonable. It is not too expensive. 

So far there have not been any other costs besides the standard licensing fees.

Our license is paid annually. 

Our organization has a three-year enterprise license agreement with TIBCO. The license is really costly.

I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten.

The licensing is very rigid - it's perpetual licensing, which doesn't really support good scalability.

There are no additional costs to the standard licensing. 

The license is based on the subscription model. The cost depends on the components required.

I would rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten. 

Not my area of expertise.

Users are only charged a yearly maintenance cost. I'm not sure of the exact amount, but I know it's quite expensive as a solution.

My understanding is that the licensing is very costly.
