Software AG webMethods Reviews & Product Details

Complex SOA are simplified using IS, TN, BPM, UM, BPM, CAF and MWS. Using wM on Azure cloud in Docker Microservice - Linux platform. We heavily depend on webMethods for all the integration activities.

Most helpful is the flow we can define in IS. Also with MWS we can monitor all the transactions, user access, TN assets etc. The internal clustering option for each components are also very useful.

Error capturing is also easy.

They also have a strong KEDB for known errors and product usage documentation.

BPM is very good for monitoring the business process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Broker replacement UM is very complicated to understand. Monitoring is not easy for documents flowing in UM. Also setting up the UM Docker container was a challenge.

Another part that needs some improvement is CAF. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Flexibility of Cloud version has been a key factor for our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

User interface for Cloud version should be more customizable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The solution is high-speed and efficient. I appreciate the partnership approach to cooperation, also after software implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's the disadvantage of every solution of this type - access to developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is easy to use and makes it easy to create integrations. There are many connectors, enabling users to quickly and easily incorporate other solutions. Another great thing is Software AG's support team, they are always available to help and provide valuable insights as to what might be causing problems, even if it is not some technical problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the interface provides a nice experience, the learning curve to master the tool is quite steep. There also may be some difficulty finding learning material in Portuguese language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the flexibility of the platform, the open API, the continuous improvements and the high availability of the support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes minor regressions come with the platform update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once we get the image file it is easy to install Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For downloading image file it is really tough and time taking process.We need to make selection if we need to download the older version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The consultation and services from SAG is incomaparable. I have never seen any product company providing so much content online for the common issues ,the vendors encounters. Also, the consultants from SAG are very prompt , whenever a ticket is raised to provide solutions quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Certifications-I recently enquired about taking up the certification from Sydney location .As I am working in webMethods for more than 8+ years , I thought to get myself certified. However, I was being informed that I can give certification only from Bangalore,India or otherwise I would have to wait for atleast 5-10 peope who are interested in giving the certification exam from the location.

I strongly feel that SAG should remove such restrictions and should ease the certification like their competitors(Dell Boomi, Mulesoft etc). Being in the market from so long, they should provide online courses and should even allow people taking up certifications remotely. Also, they should keep the certifications prices very reasonable( I enquired certification, which was 30000 INR .It is very costly for everyone.Not all the companies will reimburse certification charges) .I believe for anyone, learning would be the first step to think if they really want to use webMethods for their integration solutions . If we restrict it ,then we might end up loosing customers,as Mulesoft and Dell Boomi have kept their learning as an open source and much more convinient than SAG.

Given that the product is known to be a very great product what sets them apart is their customer support. Very knowledgeable and responsive.

This what makes it best and recommendable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the production is very robust and can handle a complex situations. However, at times even learning can be complex as well. I have review /POC competitor product and iI feel they are much easier to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The installation and update process might be easier. Especially the update to a higher version takes a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

what i am more conviced is the interface (Integration Server) in order to set the acls and control who is going to access and where, and test the services you are publishing/serving.

no matter if you are planning to deploy one or a bunch of projects, you are able to isolate them each of another using this tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the installation and integration of their different products is not very natural and familiar, and you will need skills and some previous experience.

In the other hand, is very robust and when you become certain know-how, is a very robust setup Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its high cost and not offered in cloud domain until recently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

webMethods Integration Server provides a host of built in features for mappings, transformations and relliable messaging. The resilience features of message triggers, the new REST tools that allow you to expose services as REST endpoints within minutes.

The fact that ready made docker containers exist, and that especially Integration Server supports everything needed for scalable cloud microservices (like prometheus support, externalized configuration, etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software AG webMethods is not born in the cloud era. It did catching up in terms on iPaaS adoption. Monitoring, Testing framework, and various utility frameworks is not available out of the box in the earlier versions. For some they maybe steep learning curve for those new to webMethods. Short product version lifecycle. Upgrading sometimes is a bit complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software AG respond immediately to Customer's request. SAG engineer understands the problem very quickly and may provide first hand information that will fix the issue in most cases. If not, the SAG revert customer in a couple of days with exact solution that works 99%. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Due to geographic differences, Software AG may finding difficult in assigning same engineer who worked first on this issue. Due to assigning new engineer for the same issue, customer endup in explaining the issue again and again. This is bit additional effort spent by customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software AG IoT Microservices and DevOps, IoT PaaS, New Distributed architecture, solutions that ARIS provides and API management provides end to end solution that a customer requires in these days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The functionalities that Agile Apps and its QA. I have seen so many gaps and defects in this area. Cloud is one of the emerging technology in these days but Software AG did not focus much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Desginer offers many facilities for multilayer development, its lapse of learning and understanding is shorter compared to other 2 BPM tools that I have used previously. In just minutes you can create and deploy a BPMN in the IS without so many complications and the best of all is the broad and easy integration of services through adapters that adapt to almost any back-end. As for the utilitarian libraries, the software includes a very complete public library that facilitates and complements the developments, besides allowing the facility to develop and expose services in java to preference. In my experience I have worked in 2 different banking entities with this tool with successful results. They only have to improve the support and without a doubt the Software AG Designer would become one of the top tools of the BPM market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The direct support with the company is not so good and the community is very scarce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy Development with Flowservices. But also the possibility to create complex Javaservices. Easy Way to Create Webservices and SQL Adapter. I also like the easy Deployment Solution with Jenkins. Easy Creating Web Graphical User Interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes if you work with Big Data from the Database and Hashtables/Lists you will face the maximum exceeded JVM Memory. The IS is slowing down. What i not so really like is the Design Quality of the CAF Framework for Web Graphical User Interfaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

webMethods Integration Server is easy to use and the availability of adapters and connectors makes it easy to integrate multiple systems both on prem and cloud infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there's room for improvement in terms of the user experience for lower version of API Portal. That's why we're planning of migrating to a newer version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

webMethods comes with a capability to provide vast array of solutions. Be it cloud or on premises, it has got all the flavours of Enterprise Applications Integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Upgrade process is bit tedious. Hopefully, with current dev ops initiatives, we will arrive at one click upgrade soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

webMethods is a very powerful integration tool wich provides high flexibility when the interface design is complex and highly customised. The good variety of adapters has made integrations to other packaged application very easy. The great availaibity of product/support documentations make self-learning easy and effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The application patching/fixes experience is painful. SAG has changed the approach which now release product patches/fixes more often. Due to the short release cycle, some patches/fixes are not thoroughly tested. We had experienced twice that IS core fix has broken a core function in webMethods which gives system administrators very high pressure on regression testing and huge risks for implementtion.
