Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of use it provides. Cleo Integration Cloud Platform is a straightforward and simple product."

More Cleo Integration Cloud Platform Pros →

"This solution allows for easy integration with heterogeneous applications.""B2B Integrator is multi-platform, so it can be integrated with Windows, Unix, or whatever, and it can work with almost all programming languages. It can also transfer a lot of data in a short time. For instance, a system I recently implemented exchanges about 20 million files a day.""The most valuable feature of IBM B2B Integrator is its security and flexibility.""Everything from the order to fulfillment to the payment process, except for physical packing and shipping, is fully automated for some customer orders.""It's highly stable, and the redundancy is amazing. B2B Integrator also has a high availability option to work in a cluster environment. You rarely have issues operating it because of the HA.""Very flexible product; it allows implementing different flows on the same infrastructure.""The most valuable features are the flexibility and the range of EDI standards that IBM Sterling can handle.""It can scale horizontally as well as vertically as a cluster."

Cons
"Currently, the solution fails to provide users with additional protocol assistance and API integrations, so the aforementioned areas need to be considered for improvement."

More Cleo Integration Cloud Platform Cons →

"IBM B2B Integrator could improve the business process itself, there is no resignation of duties and in terms of the console should be changed in a way that is more user-friendly.""There should be a single place to do things, rather than making it complicated, not moving away and truncating the old features but instead coming up with the new and still keeping the old stuff confuses people sometimes.""The tool requires you to write a lot of code in Java and XSLT, which makes development tough.""The one thing that is lacking is easy visibility. It's hard to provide business users with a view into the statuses of their transactions.""They do not have a solid partner ecosystem, and they do not have a clear roadmap for down the line; they're missing that clear roadmap.""The user interface is outdated. B2B Integrator was developed in the United States in the nineties, and the graphical user interface hasn't improved since. It's tough because you have to program the software in XML. Nowadays, other methods are easier to work with.""The dashboard is not integrated and should be bundled by the product vendor.""API integration could be improved. The legacy system could be on the cloud."
