BAD Experience with app connect **Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kruti V. | Cloud Programmer, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 29, 2018 **What do you like best about IBM App Connect?** IBM app connect is a service which helps us to integrate data from various cloud and off cloud servers and creates an api so that we can utilize it to get the whole data in virtually single source database but as promised app connect doesn't stand up to its terms.I like only one thing and that is the overall idea of the application and also the idea of implementing AI without any requirement to code and that too directly on the data. **What do you dislike about IBM App Connect?** I have many things to dislike about app connect.It doesn't stand up to the mark of other ibm services like ibm MQ.It doesn't offer any cummulative solution for any of its own services other than app connect.The api developed using the app connect is not easy to setup and it takes much time.I wanted to convert the data from multiple sources but i found that also difficult.I tried contacting the customer care but didn't get favorable response so I hate app connect. **Recommendations to others considering IBM App Connect:** I donot recommend using ibm app connect to any user unless and untill you donot have any other option.It costs very large amount of money for a month which takes over a large percentage of the project fund instead if you use any other service you can do it for comparatively very less amount and use the remaining fund for main application.Just one thing I like is the augmented services and if you want to use that I recommend using app connect else its just a wastage of money. **What problems is IBM App Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** I used ibm app connect only once or twice for handling the data resources and develop api out of that because my client forced me to do so.I already had bad experience in using it so I donot prefer using it.Instead I use other similar service for integrating data like centralization of database and other similar services. ### 2.

Best Data Manager **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ritu V. | Software Development Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 23, 2018 **What do you like best about IBM App Connect?** It's simple to use, enables users to focus on building business logic without dealing with the infrastructure. Users can create faster flows without a deep application platform or domain knowledge It supports multiple integration styles, across batch and real-time patterns. Also allows users to mix and match capabilities to solve the complex problem. Compared to Apigee the pn-premise setup of API is easy to connect. IBM has some of the best customer support 24x7. Other features include ease of API proxy development. Good for SaaS applications development and other complex applications.Many more.... **What do you dislike about IBM App Connect?** The UI is not nearly as intuitive as many of its competitors in the iPaaS space, which lead to larger learning curve. The GUI should be improved. The development and transformation capability is not so great. I believe IBM is looking to incorporate some of the features of IBM App Connect into API connect. The authentication features are no way close to CA API Management. The cost is high which is not feasible for small projects but the cost paid would be worth every penny. **Recommendations to others considering IBM App Connect:** I would recommend IBM App Connect for organizations that share data from various systems within an organization or to the clients or child companies. It's easy, fast and secure. The cost is high but its worth the price for the features and support it provides. **What problems is IBM App Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use IBM App Connect for large projects or when the projects require data to be combined into single format and source.IBM App Connect enables us to perform the integrations with ease thereby increasing the overall productivity. Since we share business APIs with other clients and merged companies it provides an easy integration platform for running and managing APIs in a secure manner. In all the IBM App Connect aids us with both in handling the large data and track data all while maintaining security ### 15.

It should be described here that all of the team support have a lot of knowledge, you will learn a lot. **What do you dislike about IBM App Connect?** When creating, implementing or modifying a developer, too much time is lost because it turns out that almost everything has to be done manually and I should always be aware of that, all this is very frustrating. I am aware that the support team is TOO GOOD but they respond very late to any doubt and mostly I need an immediate response because otherwise the project falls out. **Recommendations to others considering IBM App Connect:** I think here what is worth highlighting is that if you really want all your business projects (which are very important for you and the company) are very safe somewhere, do not hesitate to use IBM App Connect for this, definitely that will not fail you, this software has not failed me. **What problems is IBM App Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have obtained many benefits thanks to IBM App Connect because as I can integrate our business projects together with other applications we can see many designs as well as share them and other people can see our designs and likewise share them if they want. Through this software we can connect with other stakeholders in the business and customers as well as suppliers. In the past (when we did not use this software) we had many problems with the integration of other software, but it should be noted that this was solved when we started using IBM App Connect as well as we can use other projects (recycling) and save more time. To the project exhibitor it is much easier for her to work in public since I make the slides in IBM App Connect, everything is spectacular from the presentation to the projects, and everything really is very beautiful. And the security that our projects are in is noticeable. ### 38. best way to automate your work flow !! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jinesh S. | Cloud Engineer and Application Developer , Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2018 **What do you like best about IBM App Connect?** i have been working with ibm app connect for 1-2 years and it's one kind of boon for a software developer who needs to take care and write a piece of code for every small things , but with the use of ibm app connect we can automate this work very easily and reliably ,ibm app connect provvides very simple and easy to use GUI in which we can easily integrate our application with other business applications by developing API by using ibm ap connect's API event triggered workflow , this web based triggers can easily automate your work flow very rapidly and efficiently!! **What do you dislike about IBM App Connect?** sometimes response time is little bit more for event driven approach , it's very costly service relatively !! **Recommendations to others considering IBM App Connect:** one of the widely used tool for building API and micro services as well as it becomes so easy to transfer different type of data between your application and cloud rapidly , securely and easily !! **What problems is IBM App Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** we use ibm app connect for developing event driven API and micro services!! ### 39.

Excellent platform to connect and manage APIs from various sources **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Akshay S. | Technology Analyst, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 06, 2018 **What do you like best about IBM App Connect?** I like IBM App Cloud as I have been using it from the last 2 years to integrate the business data in my organization from various apps like SAP and Salesforce without writing a single line of code. It is possible because of the Standalone feature of IBM Bluemix. It is a platform to integrate the entire business data using a single application and supports lots of integration styles like SOA, Micro services, APIs and more. It makes my daily work very simple by organizing all the required data in a safe and secured place. The deployment is done at a rapid pace and it offers various cloud options as per the business requirements. **What do you dislike about IBM App Connect?** The only difficult I find in using IBM App Connect is that it doesn’t offer any detailed log reports about the data shared between the apps and how much data is getting lost in between. Apart from that it also doesn’t provide unlimited licensed and you need to have individual licenses for every endpoint. This increases the overall project budget. **Recommendations to others considering IBM App Connect:** It is highly recommended for large projects where data is distributed among various apps. **What problems is IBM App Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have been using IBM App Connect to deal with the client’ data and since all the data is distributed across different clouds & formats, IBM App Connect helps us in getting all the data together at a single place. This makes our work even more faster. The most beneficial part is that whenever any changes will occur in an individual application, all the inter connected applications will get automatically updated as soon as the API request is made. This makes it a powerful tool for working with integrated solutions where lots of apps are dependent on each other for data sharing. ### 46.
