MS Muhammad Jahanzeb S. Data Analyst Computer Software Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/9/2021 "Apache for web development" 4/5 What do you like best about Apache ServiceMix? I enjoy the fact that the apache server, once downloaded, makes it easy to connect to a localhost and test out my website designs when programming or running tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Apache ServiceMix? I find that setting ports for my servers can be very difficult and at times I cannot even change them from the default value. This makes it difficult when, I use MySQL for example and the apache service is also running its sql service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Apache ServiceMix: I'd suggest first get used to running the Apache servers through apps like XAMPP like I did, once you get the hang of that then go the service mix download to launch it through your command prompt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Apache ServiceMix solving and how is that benefiting you? The apache service mix allows me to use their runtime service to enable a virtual server environment for web development projects. It's much easier to do so on a localhost than to externally set it up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
