Overall Satisfaction with RabbitMQ

We used RabbitMQ at a few clients as an efficient messaging and Queuing System. In particular, we were looking for a way to use messaging between disconnected apps on different platforms. The Producer App was in the .Net Web Site and the consumer was a service running on a Linux Server.
  • Queuing
  • Simple SetUp
  • Easy to integrate with
  • A bit complicated to take full advantage of its features.
  • Dashboard could be improved.
  • Ease of Integration
  • Queuing
  • It Accomplished the Goal we intended to use it for.
  • We were able to set it up rather quickly.
I have not used other products other than a roll-your-own solution. The Selection of RabbitMQ was made before I began working on the project but I was able to leverage it well without making major changes to the existing apps. This was particularly helpful in lowering risks. I have done Queueing in a SQL server-based environment when the queue was especially managed in SQL tables. This seemed to be an overly SQL-heavy way to implement Queue and took significantly more time than RabbitMQ.

Do you think RabbitMQ delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with RabbitMQ's feature set?

Yes

Did RabbitMQ live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of RabbitMQ go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy RabbitMQ again?

Yes

RabbitMQ is powerful and useful for those who have some experience. It is easy to set up for simple uses but hard to do advanced things. I found it easy to integrate with. I would recommend it in open source environments.
