Improved data management has reduced errors while consistent loads have saved weekly effort
I think the best feature Stitch offers is that it handles deleted records. Stitch's ability to handle deleted records is a standout feature for me because if a record is deleted at the source, I can easily track it with soft delete and all that functionality. Stitch has impacted my organization positively, as I have both positive and negative aspects with it. One positive aspect is that full loads are free, so whenever I see data issues, I can go for full loads. At the same time, I need to look at the limitations, such as API limits. Stitch has helped my organization achieve better data management, making it easier. Better data management means that Stitch helps my team access data faster and reduces errors.

Drag and drop capabilities simplify service development for easy building
It is drag and drop. Drag and drop make it easier to build the service end to end. It is easier to build services with BusinessWorks. When I have an architecture designed to plug in the service itself with BW, it makes things much easier. It is easy to integrate, especially when the architecture is well-designed.

Pros

"Stitch has helped my organization achieve better data management, making it easier, as it helps my team access data faster and reduces errors."
"Stitch helps immensely because in just a day, we are able to cover the work that would normally take two to three weeks worth of design work nonstop."
"The most valuable feature of Stitch for us is ease of use. This solution is fire-and-forget. All an organization has to do is set up the connection or integration and move on."
"The setup process for Stitch was pretty easy, with a plug and play approach where the data is immediately available."
"Stitch has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to create MVPs quickly."
"The OSGI console is available to debug different issues and get low level informations on the applications development, like bundle, dependencies, etc."
"I work in operations, so I value BusinessWorks' performance the most."
"The tool's most valuable feature is BusinessConnect. It's an older product but still quite useful, especially for transferring files from one location to another."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten…On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy, I rate the initial setup a nine."
"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with."
"The most valuable feature is the low-code platform."
"The most valuable features are the stability and the time to market."
"The high availability, tolerance, and load balancing features are top-notch. Its scalability features are also pretty cool."
 

Cons

"The designs that Stitch produces sometimes cannot really be used for final launch, but I understand Stitch was designed just for rapid prototyping and for teams to get from the point where they just have an idea to having an actual product."
"My experience with customer support for Stitch has been very bad."
"The conversion to Figma is not effective."
"The customer support of Stitch is horrible."
"Generally speaking, support is a pain point. In the next release, I would love to see a change in support from the current chat to a more comprehensive portal."
"Improve Business Studio's stability to further minimize development time."
"The learning curve takes time compared to webMethods."
"This solution's cloud could be improved. I don't know whether it was because we didn't have the internal expertise or if it was the product itself, but since they came later—I think only two or three years into the cloud—after many other iPaaS that had been in the cloud for longer, I feel that maybe they haven't matured in terms of the cloud."
"I would like the solution to be integrated into the cloud."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks could be improved with cloud support."
"The creation of XSDs should be much simpler."
"The challenges I have faced with TIBCO BusinessWorks mostly relate to financial applications that do not come with those adapters, so that requires custom coding."
"I'd like to see a new cloud approach in the next release. They need to work on integrations, stability and management issues on their cloud platform."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"TIBCO licensing is yearly and very costly for a company like ours."
"The cost depends on the components required."
"The license is expensive, and I would rate it one out of ten."
"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."
"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."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks is a very expensive solution."
"The solution is too expensive. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there, particularly because there are so many open-source competitors on the market. I don't know the exact numbers, however."
"My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."
