"A reliable application server"
4/5
What do you like best about Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform?

There is a lot of documentation all over the internet talking about almost any topic of this server: How can you configure a database pool? How can you activate security? etc... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform?

It's not the fastest server in the world. Specially during the startup, if you need to use a lot of modules (datasources, EJBs, queue managers, and so on) don't expect it to start in less than 3-5 minutes.

Of course it might mean that your application is too big to be deployed fast enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike but there is a suggestion to improve UI based installation which can take custom configuration changes like support for HTTPS certificate or SSL certificate. Also, create standalone.xml file with all valid attributes leaving end user to update as per business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5
What do you like best about Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform?

RedHat Jboss Enterprise is a fully fledged Java application platform that is very dynamic. It can be extremely robust and versatile at the same time. The entire documentation from RedHat is very thorough and detailed and covers every aspect you can possibly imagine. The updates for Jboss Enterprise has also been very steady and new features are being pushed out with every minor/major versions with constant performance improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform?

Jboss server logging could use a bit more work. When multiple applications are deployed on the same platform, server logs usually get overcrowded and its very hard to debug application or platform level issues under such circumstances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Product works as advertised"
4/5
What do you like best about Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform?

JBoss is fairly easy to set up compared to other application servers. It has a short start up time and has less configuration issues compared to WebSphere or WebLogic. There are some oddities when dealing with REST libraries, but you have all expected features working properly on the platform. Our applications were easy to deploy and debug when things went wrong most of the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform?

The technical support often felt underwhelming. When dealing with support staff, we would often be asked to write a sample application displaying the issue, however it seems that the support personal often could not deploy our application. The administration of the platform also felt incomplete, as the UI did not meet up with the CLI interface in all instances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
