Enhances operational efficiency with valuable prepackaged content and cost-effective pricing

For organizations that operate within an SAP ecosystem, SAP Process Orchestration is recommended due to its cost-effectiveness and the availability of valuable prepackaged content. It is important to consider the needs of your industry, as SAP Process Orchestration may not meet all requirements in consumer-oriented sectors. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

A java based platform, which is used for application integration and has a user-friendly GUI

I haven't encountered any drawbacks with TIBCO BusinessWorks so far. Despite being a new user for the past year, everything has been smooth, including development and deployment. Challenges with TIBCO BusinessWorks were mainly due to unclear documentation, but these were overcome by referring to comprehensive documents and raising tickets with TIBCO support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."

"It is a scalable solution."

"I rate the product's setup phase a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy since it is a very easy process."

"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."

"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."

"The initial setup is easy."

"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."

"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."

More SAP Process Orchestration pros

"The most valuable part of the solution is the ease-of-use and ease of deployment."

"One of the most valuable features is data transformation. We have some legacy systems which are in old technology, like SOAP, whereas the new ones are in REST. So we use BusinessWorks to transform data from one format to another, from SOAP to REST."

"I work in operations, so I value BusinessWorks' performance the most."

"BusinessWorks reduces development time, helping developers to focus on business logic."

"Good performance and reliability."

"It is a very robust system."

"I like TIBCO BusinessWorks because it has a user-friendly GUI for developing solutions."

"One of the most valuable features is that it's a simple development. It takes a short time to get services to work."

More TIBCO BusinessWorks pros

Cons

"SAP needs to improve a lot in terms of the orchestration part so that more adapters can be provided to users, which are areas where the solution has downsides."

"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."

"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."

"I think the main area that SAP PO should improve on is offering pre-delivered content like they do when you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."

"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."

"The solution could be more scalable."

"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."

More SAP Process Orchestration cons

"Though it is a stable product, if we have an issue with the product, it gets difficult, and it gets really difficult to explain the issue to the support team. Also, it takes a long time to get resolved."

"A possible improvement could be to give the capability to use different profiles for each AppNode when an application is deployed on an AppSpace."

"The cost of the solution has room for improvement."

"There are multiple plugins which increase the number of product installations."

"There is room for improvement on the learning side."

"TIBCO BusinessWorks needs to improve its digital IDs and data processing capabilities. It will benefit small and medium businesses."

"The solution’s customer support should be improved."

"The communication protocols could be improved."

More TIBCO BusinessWorks cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."

"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."

"There are fees in addition to the licensing."

"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."

"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."

"It's not an expensive solution."

More SAP Process Orchestration pricing and cost advice

"The cost depends on the components required."

"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."

"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."

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

"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."

"The license is expensive, and I would rate it one out of ten."

"TIBCO licensing is yearly and very costly for a company like ours."

"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."

Overview

SAP NetWeaver Process Integration facilitates the integration of business processes that span different departments, organizations, or companies. SAP PI is based on general standards so as to enable 3rd-party systems to be integrated. At the center of SAP PI is an XML-based communication that uses HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol). Irrespective of the scenario used, the application-specific contents are transferred in messages in user-defined XML eXtensible Markup Language) from the sender to the receiver either via the Integration Server, or directly between the systems involved. SAP PI can be installed in different ways: Dual usage type installation: Based on both AS ABAP and AS Java. and Advanced Adapter Engine Extended (AEX): Based on AS Java only.

TIBCO BusinessWorks allows to connect applications, whether on-premises or in the cloud, providing proven reliability and scalability, out-of-the-box. With a drag-and-drop graphical development environment, TIBCO BusinessWorks eliminates the pain and cost of point-to-point application integration, connecting and unifying business processes across applications, data sources, and APIs, with access to real-time data across all your platforms.
