What do you like best?
Its relatively new and well maintained with active support .
Based on Java
Ability to load balance , replication and failover features.
Flexibility and Stability
Support for automated Testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike?
My observation on Gigaspaces is more focused on cloud based / web based solutions - auto installation and auto deployments which are all good features for web based or browser based applications
but for our use we would prefer to have a simpler or lighter version focused on for standalone installations and usages with high focus on performance and stability
(Clear ability to cut down unwanted features and get a lighter model with much higher performance )
Please feel free to correct me - i may be wrong though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
"Scalability and Performance"
What do you like best?
In its core InsightEdge have the foundation that you need for an application - execution, messaging and storage. By design you also have partitioning/sharding of these three concepts. This together with its in-mem computing and fault tolerance gives us a platform with so much flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike?
In-mem computing is complicated in terms of deployment since you have code and data in the same process. You need to have good tools to manage this in your environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
"Marrying transactional data with anlytic data in a single platform"
What do you like best?
As a long time user of Gigaspaces XAP (predecessor to InsightEdge) it seemed a natural step for Gigaspaces to step into analytics. InsightEdge has provided us with a single platform for both our transactional and analytic applications. We now have "realtime all the time" and the TCO is low. It's without any doubt one of, if not the, leading Enterprise platform that I would use for almost anything I do. As a professional service provider, we have tried many different solutions but the only one still making the cut is Gigaspaces InsightEdge and all the extra goodies that come with it. NO doubt "best of the best" Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike?
I dislike the fact that GIgaspaces is not a more official product. It is quite unknown which makes it harder to get new people on-board. I have also discovered that it's hard for some developers to grasp partitioning and routing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best?
Performance and scalability that enters smoothly into our ecosystem. Very straight forward process to merge actual systems with InsightEdge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Difficult to say. I think a specific training for install and configure it's important to maximize the results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Issues with notification delivery in the beginning of the project eventually resolved

3. Time zone difference does not help with support issues.
once stable, no issues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
