Pros
"The automation of all the data transfers is great.""Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration has a great user interface that is easy to understand."

More Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration Pros →

"Very flexible product; it allows implementing different flows on the same infrastructure.""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 can scale horizontally as well as vertically as a cluster.""The most valuable features assist with understanding data formats and transforming data.""Out-of-box process orchestration yields quick implementations.""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."

Cons
"The solution's performance could be improved and made similar to that of IBM Sterling B2B Integrator.""The initial setup can be a bit tricky."

More Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration Cons →

"Patching or upgrading the product is a bit of a nightmare. It would be nice if they removed the installation manager port. We find it complicates upgrading and patching a great deal.""When working on an elaborate rule, I end up creating it in notepad and then pasting it into the Extended Rule window, which is not convenient.""There are also some features in the solution that are not user-friendly, like code lists with no search options. So, we must navigate hundreds of pages to check for one entry.""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.""The initial setup is complex.""The mapping, visibility, deployment, and the dashboard could be improved and updated. The communication logs are very poor. They are not easily understood, and we need to navigate to many places for many reasons. You can't just pull the information; it's very tough.""API-Fication required, and there should be more clarity on their cloud migration strategy.""End-to-end visibility and monitoring application required. The control center is available and covers this area, but it still fails in many monitoring scenarios."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Compared to other SaaS platforms, the solution's pricing is less."
  • More Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The solution is priced at $20,000 to $30,000 per year with no extra costs."
  • "The pricing is based on how many cores are used and the type of cores."
  • "Licensing depends upon the package you opt for within the solution. The solution is a bit costly compared to the other integration tools in the market."
  • "The price of IBM B2B Integrator is too high. However, IBM may be willing to give a discount if there are negotiations. If they see that there is a good opportunity for them they can provide a discount."
  • "The product costs more than 40K."
