Vijayraj Amin - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly and accessible for anyone with computer knowledge and logical thinking
There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool. Currently, it provides basic reports and the ability to create graphs and dashboards, but I'm looking forward to more robust analytics. The plan is to enhance this feature in 2024, around Q2 or Q3, which would save us from relying on external tools like Power BI for insights.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a reliable solution."
"It is among the best, even if not widely known."
"Back in the day, we could only get reports and analyze what happened after the fact, but today now we can generate real-time insights. Transformation Manager feeds your data science projects. We generate models and then give them to the clients, so they can come up with real-time predictions and recommendations in addition to reporting."
"The most valuable feature of webMethods Integration Server is all the capabilities it provides. We leverage most of the features, that they have offered to us. Our vendor has made some additional features on top of the webMethods Integration Server and we use all the features together."
"The performance is good."
"Currently, we're using this solution for the integration server which helps us to integrate with the mainframe."
"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."
"The product is very stable."
"It is a bundled product stack for A2A and B2B usage. It is one of the best products which I have used during my integration career."
"Operationally, I consider the solution to be quite good."
"It frankly fills the gap between IT and business by having approval and policy enforcement on each state and cycle of the asset from the moment it gets created until it is retired."
 

Cons

"Transformation Manager reporting could be better. There are better options for reporting tools these days. We use Microsoft BI sometimes, but Tableau is becoming too expensive. Microsoft BI's visualization features are maturing."
"They should build a functional architecture based on queuing."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool."
"The initial setup of the webMethods Integration Server is not easy but it gets easier once you know it. It is tiresome but not difficult."
"Perhaps in the area of Microservices, where I think Trading Networks could benefit from some improvements."
"The patching of infrastructure is not very smooth and improved authentication should be added in the next feature."
"The deployment should be simplified."
"webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors."
"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."
"The installation process should be simplified for first time users and be made more user-friendly."
"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive solution."
"I don’t have much idea about prices, but webMethods API Portal is not something cheaper."
"I do see a lack of capabilities inside of the monetization area for them. They have a cloud infrastructure that is pay per use type of a thing. If you already use 1,000 transactions per se, then you can be charged and billed. I see room for improvement there for their side on that particular capability of the monetization."
"I would like to see better pricing for the license."
"It is worth the cost."
"Pricing is the number-one downfall. It's too expensive. They could make more money by dropping the price in half and getting more customers. It's the best product there is, but it's too expensive."
"Most of my clients would like the price of the solution to be reduced."
"Based on our team discussions and feedback, it is pretty costly because they charge us for each transmission."
"webMethods.io Integration's pricing is high and has yearly subscription costs."
