"Serial processing to parallel processing to 10x my throughput"

5/5

What do you like best about IronWorker?

- I improved my CSV breakdown work drastically by putting 10 Iron Workers on the job. Up to that point, I was just using larger AWS instances... But the concept of actually running 'concurrent' jobs at the same time (through using workers that spin up on elastic cloud computing) was lost on me.

- The UI is very intuitive and gives really good detail about the time each job takes.

- I can run my Workers and then have them put the finished product on a message queue - which means my whole ETL process is done without any hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IronWorker?

Iron's message queue did used to have downtime - but they have released a new MQ v 4 built on RUST that has been really great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IronWorker:

The utility is great once you have moved past the configuration stage. If you have a bottleneck in your workflows, Iron's worker could be a great fit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable web queue"

3.5/5

What do you like best about IronWorker?

My experience with the message queues was a good one. I had no issues and found the message queues to be very reliable. The website has good monitoring showing exactly what is happening in real time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IronWorker?

The initial set up and configuration is a bit more involved that I would like. The documentation could have been a little easier to follow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
