User Testimonials
	Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform
Likelihood to Recommend	Red Hat JBoss EAP is subscription based/open source platform. It's very reliable and great for deploying high transaction Java based enterprise applications. It integrates well with third party components like mod_cluster and supports popular Java EE web-based frameworks such as Spring, Angular JS, jQuery Mobile, and Google Web Toolkit. Incentivized Amanda Decker Development Coordinator, Advancement Services Read full review
Pros	Red Hat MOD_CLUSTER integration. JBoss EAP integrates pretty well with mod_cluster. This is an intelligent load balancer especially useful in highly clustered environments. Supports enterprise-grade features such as high availability clustering, distributed caching, messaging etc. Supports deployment in on-premise, virtual and hybrid cloud environments. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Red Hat Jboss CLI is a great tool but we had trouble using it to get values that are displayed on Jboss GUI. It also has limitations parsing the applications.xml files and we had to use a mix of jboss-cli and linux bash commands to automate certain application administrative tasks. JBoss doesn't really provides performance tuning recommendations. It would have been nice if it could learn from the current demand vs current settings for things like connection pool, server configurations, garbage collection etc. Incentivized Amanda Decker Development Coordinator, Advancement Services Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Red Hat We are planning to migrate away from Jboss to Tomcat as Jboss has shown not interest in supporting OSGi which is heavily used at our shop Incentivized sameer vaidya Software Developer IV Read full review
Usability	Red Hat JBoss overall is easy to use. The installation and deployment of applications are quick. Documentations and support are also readily available. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Performance	Red Hat Usually, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is good at performance and well suited for high traffic Java EE-based applications, but we have faced hard times performance tuning it for our specific needs. The product would be nicer if they would add a performance diagnostic and recommendations feature to it. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Red Hat Fast response. Incentivized Holman Cárdenas, M.Eng, TOGAF®, ITIL® CIO (Chief Information Officer) Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Red Hat We selected JBoss because of compatibility with EJB's. We currently are trying to reduce our footprint and will highly consider using Tomcat. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Red Hat Improved delivery timelines due to easy out of the box setup. It is a cheap subscription-based/open-source Java EE-based application server. This reduces the overall cost of delivery. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
