  • If you don't use all of the product family, it will be expensive. But if you want to plan use all the products and you will position it in the center of your infrastructure ROI will be effective.

ConnectPlaza Screenshots

Screenshot of Constructor is one of a the four products of ConnectPlaza® Studio to create and distribute 'Non standard' Connectivity' with simple mouse-click configuration.

The constructor (development environment) is designed to simplify integration and help you to build all the functionality you need, from a drag-and-drop standpoint. Essentially everyone can use Constructor, since there is no coding required to use our standard building blocks and our Out-of-the-Box components.

The constructor is created in such a way that everyone, even if they have no experience in integration, can connect their data! ConnectPlaza® allows all types of integration combinations: Cloud, SaaS or On-Premise applications. We offer your workforce a complete integration lifecycle from construction to deployment.Screenshot of Deploy is where you perform a one-click-deployment of all your flows to your runtime environment. We employ unique technology that allows our customers to deploy their integration solution anywhere they could ever want and control their deployment directly from the cloud. The ConnectPlaza® agent is flexible and lightweight and can be installed virtually anywhere.

Through a special and secure connection these Agents can be controlled remotely and deployment is managed from the cloud, avoiding the need for direct access to hosting platforms and performing technical operations to make things work correctly. So once you build something, you can deploy it anywhere.Screenshot of Would you like to review and trace all messages and data transactions in one single view?

ConnectPlaza Analyze is a unique and unparalleled analysis tool, which gives you extremely detailed insight in critical business data transactions.

It allows you to deep dive into the individual messages and inspect their contents and properties in a way you’ve never seen before. 

And, perhaps most importantly, none of your data will be stored anywhere in the iPaaS Cloud, making our product and your environment GDPR compliant.Screenshot of With Control we deliver technical monitoring capabilities for your complete ConnectPlaza® run-time environment. Pro-active support is possible by checking metrics and notifications of the Agent. You can set thresholds on queue sizes, number of messages per component, etc. When installed a default configuration based on your environment is created. You can modify these settings, like alerting, message notification, error handling, events, latency, etc. in the Control environment in ConnectPlaza® Studio.Screenshot of A little preview of our Producer componentsScreenshot of A little preview of our Services components
