IBM MQ Pricing

This robust messaging software gives 100 percent high availability and dependability on it. I completely trust this IBM MQ and we never have to bounce the queue managers. I work as admin for this software and installation and maintenance is very easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost associated with IBM products is always a concern. IBM has to revise the cost in this competitive world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MQ and message queuing is not the most sexy of applications. Few will have a need for it, but when you do, you'll realise how critical this can be. If you build a system that needs to support hundreds/thousands of transactions per hour, the biggest worry is to lose one. If your servers can't process these transactions fast enough, this is bound to happen. This is where MQ fits in. Instead of directly processing your transactions, you store it in MQ instead, and have your processing engine read from the queue instead. This not only prevents losing transactions, it also removes the need to always throw more cpu to handle extra transaction loads, by being able to process them asynchronously, you can continue to process transactions at a constant rate. Also, if any piece of software crashes/fails, you can feel secure in knowing you arenot losing anything while you remedy the problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MQ is not a simple system to figure out, proper installation and configuration can take some time, especially if you don't have any experience. But I wouldn't let that scare you away, the benefits far outweigh the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
