"IBM B2B Integrator is a great tool, robust, reliable, low-maintenance, and ideal solution."
"The technical support on offer through the portal is very helpful and responsive."
"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 features assist with understanding data formats and transforming data."
"The best feature is that many companies use the solution so there is a lot of peer support."
"It is easy of use and it's easy to maintain. It's also faster to on-board partners."
"Out-of-box process orchestration yields quick implementations."
"webMethods Trading Networks is a stable solution."
"With webMethods, the creation of servers and the utilization of Trading Networks facilitate B2B integration. It resolves any related issues effectively."

"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."
"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."
"The user interface is outdated.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-Fication required, and there should be more clarity on their cloud migration strategy."
"The web interface of B2B is quite outdated and not particularly user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"Perhaps in the area of Microservices, where I think Trading Networks could benefit from some improvements."
"The solution should include REST API calls."
