Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO BusinessWorks
We are using it to send API data to the signs in our MARTA train stations. The data is being sent with the FTL application.
- It does help eliminate the need for writing a lot code.
- It makes it easier to connect to and use data from databases.
- The support is terrible. It would be better if they had a book that describes how the pallets work with detailed examples. This would make the product easier to learn. The harder the product is, the less likely people will fight to learn it, especially for the price.
- Online training
It was ok, but did not teach me things I really wanted to know.
- That's a better question for management.
I think it's faster, once you learn and understand the application. There are some simple solutions that was faster for me to write code, because I understand C# better than I understood TIBCO.
I assume it's better if I can get it to work. I am still trying to learn how many different pieces work.
Since I am only doing simple things in TIBCO like moving files, connecting to databases, my testing is extremely simple. Right now, it's just a major effort to get the process to work.
I haven't tried any other products like this.
