    The best way to take advantage of VMware Application Catalog (Bitnami) is as in the case I mentioned, that you constantly implement these free software, where any time saved is important in terms of installation, configuration and testing environment, it really is a very useful solution, also if you need a good community and support; however the cloud and VMs solutions is not designed for huge products, these can be slow or remain insufficient if the use of these grows a lot, even though it is an easy-to-use product, you need to have enough knowledge in terms of installation and management of cloud solutions, a beginner can find himself in trouble

    It fits perfectly for SOA and EAI architecture with large numbers of services that required to be wired to each other, the binding virtualization is quite good to simply this part. For the simple scenario of orchestration and /or ESB architecture could be a better use traditional stack.

    Usability
    Broadcom
    Most of it is intuitive. I think some of the awkwardness is found by new users who are unfamiliar with other software applications.

    VMware Application Catalog (Bitnami) offers better tools to complete the task faster and more efficiently. The customer support and knowledge base is also well presented and trained

    TIBCO service grid has been chosen as a natural selection of the TIBCO product evolution. The high flexibility and the binding virtualization fits very well with client needs for its EAI applications due to the huge number of services and applications, the management of application dependencies during deployment, the advantage of perfect integration with EMS for logging

    Return on Investment
    Broadcom
    • We save a lot of time implementing the apps, less engineers working on this phase
    • The upgrade process of the apps can be a pain and a waste valuable time
    • The mains options of the VMware Application Catalog (Bitnami) are free so is important for save money in our organization

    • The integration of old BW with BWSE and its interface quite similar to design time has reduced the cost of training for developers
    • The TIBCO support for this product is no the best and clients complains too much about this. This required to find a workaround or force the client to move to new/or different product. Huge impact on ROI
