Seeburger Lead EDI Developer/Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Effective business process handling with some room for improvement in mapping ease and user interactions
IBM Sterling B2B Integration Services does not have specific issues that need improvement. While each product, like SeeBurger and IBM Sterling B2B Integration Services, has its own advantages and disadvantages, I do not see any challenges or improvements needed. Although, mapping might be a bit easier in SeeBurger compared to IBM Sterling B2B Integration Services.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features are XFB for its FTPS and SFTP."
"It provides centralized monitoring and managing of organization application file transfers, which helps to reduce the time of monitoring of individual applications and helps us understand the file flow between applications and helps with troubleshooting issues."
"It is easy to use and is a feature-rich application in the EDI space."
"The B2B Sterling platform is basically managed services, so we outsource our services to IBM and it relieves us of having resources in-house and 24/7 support."
"The solution is extremely scalable."
"IBM Sterling B2B Integration Services is a stable and scalable product."
"They have multiple features for each kind of task and issue. The company has different channels to give information to the administration. Security and integration capabilities are also important. This product has helped to replace a lot of other solutions, saving time and cost."
"This product is fairly out there in terms of usability and easy to use, such as you can implement and deploy."
"The product's most valuable feature is the real-time integration suite."
"For us, we've basically outsourced the onboarding and translation of all of our electronic data interchange (EDI) with our customers."
"Being a manufacturing company, we are dealing with different customers and catering to different orders, and EDI is very helpful for us because the ordering can be done via EDI and the orders can be processed outright, which is a big advantage."
 

Cons

"The logging could be better in XFB."
"Axway Synchrony Gateway 6.11.4 is no longer supported by the vendor."
"There are cheaper alternatives available in the market."
"It's probably not as much as they sold us in their value proposition, so be cautious about that."
"The setup is not straightforward, but it is fairly well documented."
"Onboarding on the solution is complex. It's hard to onboard partners and customer suppliers. It's one aspect that is not that straightforward."
"It can be now classified as a legacy system because there are no more updates. From what I know, there will be no updates for the current version, which is an issue."
"The only weaknesses they have different governance for each task and different channels for communication which are hard to maintain. The relation of the company with other companies can be improved. We have a lot of customers who this platform for the interchange of information which can also be improved. The compliance information about banks can also be updated."
"The main reason for this rating is that SeeBurger is much easier to handle compared to IBM Sterling B2B Integration Services."
"They can improve APIs because they are still lagging behind in API connectivity. With non-API connectivity, they're market leaders, but API connectivity, they're still in the immature space."
"It can be now classified as a legacy system because there are no more updates. From what I know, there will be no updates for the current version, which is an issue. Therefore, we are looking for a compatible new software that we can use. We're currently researching what is there in the market. We would consider something that would give us better speed on our current processor. There is also room for improvement in terms of its scalability and GUI. It is an old system, and its scalability can be improved. Its GUI can also be more appealing."
