CEO Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 2/3/2019 "Good product" 3/5 What do you like best about Apache CXF? It was really easy to publish XML and XSLT. It was also fairly easy to build various web applications. Also easy to build XML based files. Apache has other programs that are great to use so definitely can switch over and fulfill all your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Apache CXF? Although I found it easy to use, others did not. I found myself doing a lot of teaching and training which costs a lot of time. We all know time translates in to money. Also some were worried about security since everything is connected to the internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Apache CXF solving and how is that benefiting you? The tests that we build are XML based fikes. In the past that took a great deal of time that we usually didn't have to waste. This program simplifies that and decreased time. Were building tests woth XML based files. We were able to publish easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
