What do you like best about IBM webMethods Integration?

The ease that it comes with when configuring new c2c integrations. There are also tonnes of prehand connectors available to meet most frequent enterprise problems. The list of connectors gets updated time to time as advancements in the industry. It's really helpful when migrating from legacy systems as the modules are already ready to just plug and continue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM webMethods Integration?

I think there can be some more initial training or specific modules to help with. The documentation is very wide and its easy to get lost while going through it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about webMethods?

As per my understanding the GUI tools that have been designed it is quite easy for even beginners as compared to other such tools. Most of the services are built-in which can be leveraged in the programing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about webMethods?

The licensing cost of the enterprise version and the over-all support (time consuming). Documentations available over the web are of limited access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IBM webMethods Integration?

The platform is perfect in what it has been designed for. It gives room both for workflows and flowservices that gives the right tools to build the required integrations. wM.io comes with a bunch of predefined connectors which are usefull when using SaaS applications. On top of that it is possible to define REST connectors to any other application. If not enough it connects really easy to the on-prem wM. By this hybride integrations are easy achievable.

Allthough it is not that intuitive as I would like to see the learning curve is not that high. We could write integrations within a few weeks with less training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM webMethods Integration?

Right now the two greatest issues are the release feature and lack of shared components. There are options to push projects to other environments but this is not ideal and requires still manual interventions causing differences between dev/test and production. I must say that there are promising improvements ahead in 2023 to have it git connected. SAG is really listening to their users and acting on this.

It would also be great if the logging features could be expanded. This would help developers to understand issues/shortcomings faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IBM webMethods Integration?

More often is a freeware application to use and it not based on software requirements. We can use it in web browser any where, any time and any operating system's laptop, desktop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM webMethods Integration?

Since it is web based application internet is required all time, expecting offline applications as well. I'm not saying it as disadvantage, just saying my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Fatima El Megrabi of IBM webMethods Integration

Hello,

Thank you for reviewing webMethods.io iPaaS. I'm very glad to share that you can now build your integrations offline and deploy them once you're back online using the latest webMethods.io Integration 11 release.

You now have the freedom to choose. Once you build integrations in a cloud editor or build it inside Service Designer offline, you can then publish them into source code control and pull it into the cloud or run them in your self-hosted runtimes.

What do you like best about IBM webMethods Integration?

To be honest, before implementing the Integration part, it was an usual boring process of getting out things done manually, where things were easy now just scheduling it with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Have started to work on the webMethods.io Integration part for the past few months.
