"Payara: Developer Friendly Platform."
What do you like best about Payara Server?

I've been working with the Java framework, and the Payara server has made it simple for me to deploy modifications over time and successfully support the framework while also assisting with analysis and deployment. I've been using this platform for three years and have used it to learn in the beginning. It's a terrific platform for various types of technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Payara Server?

I want Payara Server to leverage other tech stacks, cooperate with various organisations to achieve on high level, and provide Jakarta and Java a new name in the industry. Payara Server is still not very well-known among developers and it has to reach high number of users over a period of time.

To give students and professionals the opportunity to learn more about deployments and Payara while also getting a feel for how to use it, specific courses should be offered as a learning platform in Payara. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jadon Ortlepp of Payara Server

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Payara Server! We're glad to hear that it has been a valuable tool for deploying modifications and supporting the Java framework. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work on expanding our reach and offering more learning opportunities for students and professionals.

"Robust Java EE Solution"

This level of support can be invaluable for businesses running mission-critical applications and ensures that help is readily available when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Payara Server?

Payara Server is its resource requirements. Running a Payara Server instance may require significant memory and CPU resources, particularly for larger applications or deployments with high traffic. This could lead to higher infrastructure costs or performance issues if not properly managed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable and easy to use"
What do you like best about Payara Server?

I work for a state agency with 35k+ users. We use Payara for both internal and external web apps. Payara makes deploying our dozens of Jakarta apps easy and provides features and options that make any implementation possible. Some of these can have a million or more transactions per day, and Payara never has even a hiccup. Honestly, I don't think a single bug or issue has been tracked back to Pyara, always programming/networking/etc. other errors. It's nice to have one piece of infrastructure that's reliable. The integration with Maven also makes development much easier for our programmers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Payara Server?

Would be nice to be able to make war file updates without taking the service down. Maybe possible in Enterprise edition? We're switching to that this year, so we'll see! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jadon Ortlepp of Payara Server

We're delighted to hear that Payara Server has been a reliable infrastructure for your state agency, running numerous web apps seamlessly and handling updates effectively. We appreciate your feedback about the ability to make war file updates without service downtime, and we look forward to your transition to the Enterprise edition, which offers enhanced features and capabilities.
