We use Tibco business works for managing file transfers within and outside the organization as well as performing business transformation. Business works is being used across the organization as well as connectivity outside the organization. It solves the business data transfer problem by transferring data in a fast and secure manner.

  • Business users can use the process designed by Business works very well.
  • Multiple products which is used with Business works can be either reduced or integrated into a sing product.

Tibco Business Works provides better visual creation while designing integration flows than some of the products in the market. Also Tibco Business works provides an opportunity for integration developers to focus on business flow rather than technical aspects by providing all the required pallets and connections in a ordered manner. This helps us to deliver the product faster and efficiently.
Tibco Business works provides more efficient seamless integration flows and configuration structure as compared to other products in the market. THE FTP, SFTP and Other file transfer interfaces are very easy to configure as per the business requirements. Also the tool provides various customization parameters which vary based on business needs of a company.
This is one area i feel Tibco BW needs to improve upon. Although the TIBCO BW provides testing window in the designer, more features and options might need to be provided for unit testing and integration testing purpose. The present tools are very clumsy to test for a developer unless he is very accustomed to it.
Tibco business works is a easy and relatively cost effective tool compared to products like Oracle and Microsoft. Although these products cost more, they also provide features which might not be suitable for medium to large customers. hence Tibco is selected based on its technical capabilities like MFT CC and BW .

Business works is well suited in environments which require business data to be transferred securely and to be transferred to multiple locations in a parallel manner.

Business works is not suitable for direct data transfers which can be done with easily available tools and data transfer is not secure or the data is not important.
