Offers good scalability, strong stability and seamless integration

The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive. It was a major plus. The integration process was smooth. Oracle's security is good and significantly better than that of other solutions I've encountered. Previously, we had separate data interfaces for 15 concrete mixing plants, requiring manual document creation in Oracle. Now, with integrated automation, production has become much easier and more efficient over the past three years.

Can function as an ESB along with the core product, with decent integration of message protocols

I have noticed that webMethods ActiveTransfer has had problems when handling large files. For example, when we receive (and perform operations on) files that are larger than about 16 MB, the software starts losing performance. This is why, for most customers who have to deal with big files, I suggest that they use a product other than ActiveTransfer. I would like to note that this problem mainly concerns large files that undergo extra operations, such assigning, unassigning, or file translation. When these operations take place on large files, ActiveTransfer will use up a lot of resources. Within the product itself, I also believe that there is room for improvement in terms of optimization when it comes to general performance. I suspect that the issues underlying poor optimization are because it is all developed in Java. That is, all the objects and functions that are used need to be better organized, especially when it comes to big files but also overall. webMethods ActiveTransfer was born as an ESB to handle messages, and these messages were typically very short, i.e. small in size. A message is data that you have to send to an application, where it must be received in real-time and possibly processed or acknowledged elsewhere in the system as well. So, because it was initially designed for small messages, it struggles with performance when presented with very large files. All this to say, I suggest that they have an engineer reevaluate the architecture of the product in order to consider cases where large files are sent, and not only small ones. As for new features, compared to other products in the market, I think Software AG should be more up to date when it comes to extra protocol support, especially those protocols that other solutions have included in their products by default. Whenever we need to add an unsupported protocol, we have to go through the effort of custom development in order to work with it. Also, all the banks are obligated to migrate to the new standards, and big companies are all handling translations and operating their libraries with the new protocol formats. But webMethods ActiveTransfer doesn't seem to be keeping up with this evolution. Thus, they should aim to be more compliant in future, along the lines of their competitors such as IBM and Primeur.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive."

"This solution can maintain a large volume of data and is flexible to what data it can handle. The performance is very good."

"webMethods platform is used to build an EAI platform, enabling communication between many internal systems and third-party operators."

"The cloud version of the solution is very easy to set up."

"The most valuable aspect of this solution for me has been the configuration-based UI. Once you get the hang of it, it enables you to easily develop an API. In addition, it has many in-built policies that are quite handy."

"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 most valuable feature of the webMethods Integration Server is its reliability. It has a lot of great documentation from the service providers. Additionally, it is easy to use."

"I like the stability of the webMethods Integration Server."

"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."

"This solution has given us a competitive advantage because we have better automation and insight."

Cons

"The solution could improve by adding more advanced features."

"There is room for improvement in the pricing."

"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."

"The market webMethods Integration Server falls under is a very crowded market, so for the product to stand out, Software AG would need to get traction in the open source community by releasing a new version or a base version and open source it, so people can create new custom components and add it to the portfolio."

"There should be better logging, or a better dashboard, to allow you to see see the logs of the services."

"Forced migration from MessageBroker to Universal Messaging requires large scale reimplementation for JMS."

"Other products have been using AI and cloud enhancements, but webMethods Integration Server is still lagging in that key area."

"The product must add more compatible connectors."

"It would be nice if they had a change management system offering. We built our own deployer application because the one built into webMethods couldn't enforce change management rules. Integration into a change management system, along with the version control system, would be a good offering; it's something that they're lacking."

"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"webMethods Trading Networks is a bit costly compared to others solutions."

"The product is very expensive."

"It is an expensive tool. I rate the product price a nine out of ten, where ten means it is very expensive."

"Always plan five years ahead and don’t jeopardize the quality of your project by dropping items from the bill of materials."

"The price of webMethods Integration Server isn't that high from an enterprise context, but open-source ESB solutions will always be the cheapest."

"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."

"The solution's development license is free for three to six months. We have to pay for other things."

"Some of the licensing is "component-ized," which is confusing to new users/customers."
