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

TIBCO BusinessWorks is used as middleware for us I like TIBCO BusinessWorks because it has a user-friendly GUI for developing solutions. The palette offers a wide range of activities, making it easy to configure and drop activities into the solution. I haven't encountered any drawbacks with…

A product that is easy to install and offers good stability to users

The API part of the solution is an area in the solution where improvements are made since I see that TIBCO is currently trying to revamp its tool by focusing more on redesigning it. There was a tool called Mashery, which is an API management tool that was acquired by TIBCO. TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex. I think in the UK, one of the major telecom providers for whom I had done the infrastructure setup uses TIBCO Cloud Integration. Basically, TIBCO Cloud Integration is a bit difficult to install and manage the platform, but I feel there are improvements in the tool's latest version, especially on the API management side. Instead of moving to the higher version and converting the older version of TIBCO Cloud Integration or the legacy platform covered under TIBCO, they still use it because the architecture is completely different, and the components that the product has are completely different from what the new version of the product offers, making it one of the major reasons why TIBCO is coming up with a new version of the product that will be released in the upcoming year. The legacy platform of TIBCO will run on the cloud directly. TIBCO plans to develop a unified tool that is supported on the cloud and in an on-premises environment.

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 seamless and sophisticated tool."

"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."

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

"The ability to link to different technologies is valuable to us."

"We use the solution to develop applications."

"The OSGI console is available to debug different issues and get low level informations on the applications development, like bundle, dependencies, etc."

"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."

"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."

More TIBCO BusinessWorks pros

"The product's initial setup phase was easy."

"I am really impressed by TIBCO's integration of any level of complexity."

"I like that it is a very good integration tool with many other things. TIBCO is very good for cloud integration"

Cons

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

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

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

"Technical support is average. It's not the best."

"There are not many plugins available to integrate the databases. We have to write it in Java and integrate it. The developers should have more knowledge. These are the three main aspects that they could improve."

"Could be more user friendly in the development area."

"The cost has room for improvement."

"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."

More TIBCO BusinessWorks cons

"The deployment was rather complicated."

"Integrations could be better. Although integration is good, we have faced some block issues."

"TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"TIBCO BusinessWorks is a very expensive solution."

"My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."

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

"TIBCO BusinessWorks is expensive."

"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."

"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."

"We don't pay for a license."
