AG webmethods.io integrations it provides various capablities from integration systems to API management tools and Business gateways.The cloud applications and ERP applications integrations are made very easy to use.The Ease of implementation and integration is unmatchable. The Customer support provided to help resolve issues is impeccable. The frequesncy of use has increased as it supports almost all the applications and it is a one stop solution. Instead of using multiple services this is a very strong one stop solution tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The loading of all the services is alot . This can be improved over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the most useful feature of webMethods.io Integration is drag and drop options. My personaly most liked part is to creating wrokflows, as it providing list of applications, tools and services to integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the pricing is quite difficult to understand as it is not easily available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.

1. The UI provided by webMethods.io very attractive and easy to use.

2. It has got many in-built features with which a developer can start directly using it, it helps developer to spend less time/effort on those.

3. Drag and Drop features available in it has made our life easier to develop complex modules easily at the earliest.

4. More plugins to intergrate with different applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Licensed version of webMethods is bit of costly

2. Runtime observability could be improved

3. Improvement on product documentation could be revisted such that a beginner should able to understand and develop on own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Automation capabilities streamline workflows and reduce manual intervention, improving efficiency and reducing the risk of errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Security features such as data encryption, access controls, and compliance certifications help ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data being transferred between systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and very simple and minimalistic we can implement it for integrating for cloud apps.It provides data mapping capabilities also we can create custom API and expose through it securely to the users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bit expensive and need knowledge to implement it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.

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. Will get to know much more regarding the same and will try to figure out more and more information regarding the same. As of now, I don't have anything mentioned to be a dislike.
