Workday Business Process Framework vs webMethods.io comparison

"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."

"webMethods Trading Networks is a stable solution."

"It's a visual tool, so our transformations can be quickly implemented without a lot of fuss. The fact that we have an easy way to expose REST services is also very interesting. It offers the possibility to connect over GMS to synchronize message brokers."

"The performance is good."

"The most valuable feature is stability."

"Within the new version, webMethods API Gateway gives us an end-to-end lifecycle from the creation of the API up into the development, deployment, and promotion into production/live. The current end-to-end lifecycle of the API gives us enough authority and governance of the API. We know what are currently live services, what is in the testing stage of development, and what version that has been commissioned. So, the full life cycle itself gives us full authority and governance of the API."

"From a user perspective, the feature which I like the most about Integration Server is its designer."

"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API."

"The tool helps to do multiple things like assigning tasks, approvals, report creation, and communications."

"I find it easy to navigate, especially when it comes to tasks like extending offer letters. Everything is configured into a single template, eliminating the need to create multiple offer letters for different positions. The effectiveness, user-friendliness, and adaptability to new features are key strengths of Workday. It's also convenient for sourcing, allowing us to revisit candidates who performed well but didn't pass the interview. Workday's harmonized platform brings everything together in one place, making it efficient and streamlined."

"It is efficient to fine-tune some of our organizational processes and policies."

"Scalability and connectors to different cloud applications is lacking."

"It is difficult to maintain."

"webMethods Integration Server needs to add more adapters."

"The product must add more compatible connectors."

"In terms of improvement, it would be better if it adapted quicker to open standards. It took a while for API specification before the last version was available. The spec of version two was rather quick."

"The price should be reduced to make it more affordable."

"I would like to have a dashboard where I can see all of the communication between components and the configuration."

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

"There could be more automation included."

"At times, I've heard from our technical team that configuring or implementing certain requests from senior leadership can be challenging. There seem to be constraints in fulfilling specific requirements. Unfortunately, I don't have detailed information as it's what I've gathered from discussions with the technical team. There might be limitations in what can be achieved, but I can't provide specific examples without more context. Certainly, there's room for enhancement, especially in terms of regular upgrades. I've noticed that there aren't many updates, and it would be beneficial to have improvements. Regular upgrades and the introduction of new, innovative solutions could make our work more efficient and easier to manage."

"We encountered delays with the tool."

"The pricing and licensing costs for webMethods are very high, which is the only reason that we might switch to another product."

"Sometimes we don't have a very clear idea what the licensing will entail at first, because it can be very customizable. On one hand, this can be a good thing, because it can be tailored to a specific customer's needs. But on the other hand it can also be an issue when some customer asks, "What's the cost?" and we can't yet give them an accurate answer."

"The vendor is flexible with respect to pricing."

"I don’t have much idea about prices, but webMethods API Portal is not something cheaper."

"With our current licensing, it's very easy for us to scale. With our older licensing model, it was very hard. This is definitely something that I would highlight."

"The solution’s pricing is too high."

"This is not a cheap solution but, compared to other products such as those offered by IBM, the pricing is similar."

"The product is expensive."

"I find it reasonably priced, even for startups. The cost is minimal and depends on what features you want to add. Workday allows customization and personalization, and it operates like a cloud solution, making it affordable as long as you know what you need."
