Automation aids installation while management consolidation needs improvement

Pros

"I find JBoss to be lightweight and easier to manage compared to WebSphere."

Cons

"I would like to see improved booting of applications altogether on one page to manage all data instances from one location, similar to an AWS console. "

Helps to bring APIs in-house and reduce the dependency on vendors

Pros

"The tool's most beneficial feature is its scalability. People with limited technical knowledge can quickly grasp its functions with a brief introduction. The tool's ease of use makes it a plug-and-play solution, reducing the effort required to train users on its usage. "

Cons

"The tool's documentation could be improved to explain its usage and functionalities clearly. Having accessible documentation would save time for leaders like me when juniors seek information about it. The documentation should be self-explanatory and guide users on how to utilize the tool. "

Fast, reliable, and well-established

Pros

"The stability is good. I would rate it a nine out of ten. "

Cons

"The price could be improved. Customers don't want to buy the license easily."

A flexible and stable solution that is cost-efficient compared to other products

Pros

"The solution has flexibility and stability."

Cons

"There is not much ability inside of the solution. The world is going beyond different micro and data-type things like Microsoft Office, so we are not seeing much ability within the solution. "

Product version discussed: EAP 7.3
Good documentation, very stable, and scalable

Pros

"There's good documentation and a pretty good community surrounding the product."

Cons

Straightforward deployment, exceptional support, and scalable
