Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO BusinessWorks
We use BusinessWorks to transform bus transmitter data from buses and analyse metrics like ETA , stop identification, number of passengers boarding and alighting. This is used by one department.
Other problems addressed are off-route identification, passenger count per bus,
Pros
- Good tool with useful built-in logic which saves a lot of time
- It has its own messaging systems such as EMS and AS
- Easy problem management/identification. TIBCO support is very helpful
- Migration/upgrade of software is easy.
Cons
- Big data parsing takes too much time when implemented in JAVA. Example : JsontoXML parsing
- SFTP in TIBCO BusinessWorks has some issues: Delete doesn't work and timeout can not be set as global variable, and sometimes consecutive sftp connections also cause process hanging.
- Active Space connection set as secured channel doesn't allow global variable for some parameters
- This has a good ROI.
TIBCO BusinessWorks is more user friendly compared to other tools
