- Used Scribe Online Replication Services Solution to copy the contents of CRM or to a local database for reporting.
- Used TIBCO Business Studio for real-time integration for endpoints such as web services and APIs.
- Improve on TCI UI.
- Improve on providing updates when connectors or services are down instead of opening a support ticket.

TIBCO BusinessWorks Review by Leonardo Cruz Mesa
- It is a product that allows distributed solutions that complies with SOA principles
- With the principle of non-code, it helps companies have more agility and better understand their processes and fulfill the business objectives.
- Manage real-time information for new business decision-making strategies
- There are few customers with the product in my country Colombia. So the potential of the platform is not known.
- Not much documentation for independent developers.

- Excellent customer support from TIBCO.
- The Tibco BusinessWorks cloud offering has to improve.
- Tibco businessWorks in not good at handling large XML

Great experience with Scribe Online integration
- Flexible scheduling of jobs for SQL server.
- Reliability of data copies from cloud to on-premise.
- Custom one-time jobs can also be created (both small and big) as per user requirements.
- On some occasions, the scheduled jobs fail due to technical glitches. This can be improved for better user experience.
- Easy data mapping
- Able to schedule the synch
- Strong debug mode
- Not able to sync all modules
- Limited in the trigger filter

Scribe Replication Service Issues
- Daily Replication succeeds without errors more often than not.
- The Replication Service does not include the ability to "pre-filter" the data in any way, i.e., it gets ALL records from the beginning of time and ALL columns, many of which are not used in CRM.
- Several errors with records that fail to be processed are frequently reported, including "Execution timeout expired", "data would be truncated", and "Cannot insert duplicate key row". I've opened support cases for these, but none seem to have a solution I can use.
- The row counts of all entities replicated should be approximately equal to the row counts in the source database, but several entities' counts are significantly different.
- In the Scribe Online web app pages, the error details panel cannot be resized andruns off the bottom of the screen, making impossible to read the entire error message.

Scribe - Easy to Use, Functional and Fantastic
- The creation of integration maps is straightforward.
- The ability to schedule when solutions are run is of great value because we need to have systems updated in a particular order. Scheduling makes this easy.
- When errors do occur, the error messages give enough information to allow us to diagnose how we need to fix records as necessary.
- The system could be a little faster when navigating within maps. Sometimes there are delays while the page loads.
- There could be more examples of how to use Scribe in the documentation.
- I would suggest that Scribe provide suggestions when sending error messages eg Have you tried to refresh the metadata? This would save contacting support for some people.
- The setup of both the sending as the receiving side is easy, you don't really need expert skills to set up the "technical" part.
- We don't need a complicated ETL tool to extract the data from the Cloud environment.
- The overall management of what needs to be synchronized is straight forward.
- Thanks to the specific SCRIBE fields in the receiving database we have a track of deleted records (for which we don't have anything in the CRM database).
- The synchronization is not fast and seems to do some unnecessary work.
- Selecting the entities to synchronize is quite tedious, you need to scroll through quite a big list (especially when you have a lot of custom entities) a filter would be welcome.
- You need to manually update the metadata of the sending connection to see newly created entities, it would be nice if you could schedule those tasks too.
- We already had quite some situations where MS changed things in the data model of CRM that caused issues in the sync tasks.

TIBCO Scribe Is a Powerful, Drag-and-Drop Tool for Data Integration and Transformation
- Near-real time integration of multiple systems along with data validation and translation in the integration maps.
- Integration Events have also been used in the past to display related data from a different system on-load, rather than always copying data and storing it in multiple places.
- Massive data uploads are useful, for example, when adding a new field to records and loading correct data on all the records as a starting place.
- TIBCO Scribe also has so many connectors. We've used D365CE, D365BC, SQL, Excel, HubSpot, and ODBC.
- Logic built into the functions and drag and drop actions make creating maps pretty painless and very powerful.
- Some level of beginner training would be great. There are some commands that aren't immediately clear what the slight difference is between each one and what scenarios make one command better than another.
- Similarly, example Scribe maps could also be useful, if that's possible. Again, it was a little slow for me getting started and seeing examples always makes things easier for me to understand.

Scribe Online: Use it
- Point and click design for integration maps
- Simple scheduling of integrations
- Useful error reporting
- Since moving to Scribe online: no publisher
- Online editor can be sluggish: lagging
- Debug should mimic a commit not actually commit
- Improve having live and testing integrations in one tenancy

TIBCO BW : The rolls royce of integration solutions
- Quick developement
- Quick deployment
- Easy monitoring
- Easy scaling
- API Rest and JSON tools are not natively available in the designer V5
- Sometimes the mapping tab presents some bugs (for example : if statement)
- Maven cannot be used to build TIBCO BusinessWorks projects
- Scribe can dependably map or sync data between systems. When you have different systems being used by many departments, this is the tool to keep the data in-sync!
- API's are widely used by many applications and companies. Tibco Cloud Integration allows companies to integrate data from an older ERP system with a newer system using an API.
- Tibco provides the flexibility for business users, developers and anyone in-between to understand where data is moving within their organization.
- One example of flexibility of the solution is easily manipulating data on the fly.
- Tibco has some older products. Those products have newer alternatives rising to the top.
- BusinessWorks is a little difficult for users with no programming experience.

Connecting the Dots.
- Easy Learning and development capabilities.
- Ease of integration to any kind of applications using connectors/adapters/plugins.
- Usage of custom java functions and sharing resources during design-time to reduce development effort.
- Cost and time to market.
- Pluggable CI-CD pipleline for devops
- Handling HTTP requests in more efficient way. For high HTTP loads, TIBCO Business Works needs improvement to handle heavy loads.
- Hot Deployment features needs improvement where variables/property values can be changed on-demand without need for redeployment.
- Handliing Dynamic JDBC queries needs improvement and traditional JDBC statements may not fit into fast changing world.
- Automated unit testing feature needs more focus

TIBCO Cloud Integration Review
- Easy to use
- Clean interface
- Good customer service
- Lots of errors--having to restart the system and losing work in the process
- Solutions are cumbersome and very difficult to organize.
- System periodically will just not work, specifically when you are trying to fetch records to preview.
- System is VERY slow.

Interconnect everything fast and accurate
- Zero-code development. Model driven which makes it more easy to explain integration solutions to less technical stakeholders.
- A lot of configuration options to make robust solutions. Think of fault-tolerance, loadbalancing, circuit breaking, session pooling etc.
- Openness so it can be integrated in your own CI/CD pipelines and monitoring solutions.
- The (Java fat client) UI of BW5 feels outdated compared to current user interface standards. Successor BW6/BWCE is Eclipse based and allthough it's an improvement you still need to cope with the ux quirks. In the future I would like to see a webbased UI.
- The BW process development tools heavily lean on XML and Xpath. Therefore, processing big documents isn't recommended. You need to consider this upfront.
- Due to the ease of use of the development tools, you can build robust solutions very quickly. It would be nice if the tooling would provide optimization tips (using AI) during development.
- Docker base image of BusinessWorks Container Edition is quite big. Allthough latest version has adressed this.

Live fast with BusinessWorks
- Abstraction of logic
- Robustness (very high)
- Good maintainance
- Versatility
- Usability of GUI (too many settings in too many places)
- Slow management interface
- Difficult to learn

TIBCO BusinessWorks, Integrate the incompatible
- Data conversion
- Data transfer
- Integration
- Can be less heavy on memory use

- Can be expanded for use with more open source products
December 06, 2019
A competitive iPaaS product
- The price of the Scribe Online integration platform is very competitive with the features provided.
- The ease of use for designing solutions is good.
- The web-based interface makes it easy to manage from any location without installing operating system specific client-side software.
- Field mapping is not easy to use and is not clear which fields are mapped where or if they're utilized at all
- There are often delays when opening solutions or mappings and waiting 10-30 seconds for the cache to fully load before being able to click on the next item. This can be quite frustrating to navigate.
- The session timeout of 2 hours is kind of aggressive and the login page doesn't play nice with LastPass extension (often have to refresh for it to behave correctly)
- It doesn't seem to support using multiple tabs in parallel
- It would be nice to be able to copy/clone individual elements of a solution rather than only exporting the entire solution. Even better (though might be impossible/challenging to implement) would be to build an element and have it referencable from other solutions so you can edit one and have the changes present in both (rather than just a copy that is independent).
- There is no centrally managed High Water Mark feature: each operation in a solution uses its own independent High Water Mark so it is possible for them to be out of sync of each other if operations take a while to run

Great tool for real-time data integration projects
- TIBCO BusinessWorks does really well in the DB adapters. We can configure and be set up and running in minutes.
- Design and implementation of business process is pretty simple and intuitive.
- Debugging capabilities other than debugging Java code. It is addressed with the latest version of Business Studio.
- Plugins or adapters for the new technologies. Even SFTP plugins are introduced late in the market and it is not part of the standard bundle. It has to be purchased separately.
- RV is very complex to understand for a newcomer.
- Debugging limitations.
December 06, 2019
Wish I had found Scribe years ago !
- Centralised administration of all integration solutions. The ability to sign-in once and quickly administrate and develop across multiple sites is just great.
- Easy modification when changes are required. Customer requirement change all the time, with Scribe you simple make a small few changes. Integration changes no longer mean a full release, customer code etc.
- Support for many connectors - We haven't yet had a customer where a connector isn't available, the local agents are great where clients are still on premises.
- Easy Debugging - The validation means that most things just work, but when you do hit a problem the step by step debugger is so useful to quickly identify where the problem lies.
- We have one situation where we required to use REST and a bearer token. While Scribe used REST it didn't support bearer token. This needs to be added.
- History logs just disappear after a period. Sometimes you may only run a job every few months, could we just keep all logs. Also sometimes you make a mistake, as administrator could I just be able to clear any log if I need to ?
- Query runner - When we have clients with a local agent we often don't have access to their system (eg; SQL Server). We can build a integration to run a custom query and preview it, but it's clunky to do. Couldn't we have a query window so we could send native queries via the local agent and get test results.
