Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO Cloud Integration (including BusinessWorks and Scribe)

We offer Scribe to multiple customers as a Microsoft partner. Our most common uses are one-off migrations from legacy systems to dynamics 365 or ongoing integrations between dynamics 365 and another system.

Pros

  • Point and click design for integration maps
  • Simple scheduling of integrations
  • Useful error reporting

Cons

  • 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
  • Using Scribe for integrations, especially with NAV has helped us win business against competitors as we can build quickly and have full control over integration logic compared to the nav adapter, for example.
  • It is a known system and our customers respect that.
Flow has far more connectors but is more clunky to use. Although I see that this could rival Scribe in the future as people look to stay in the MS stack and avoid additional license fees.
  • Online training
  • In-person training
  • Self-taught
I initially self taught using an earlier iteration of Scribe online. Subsequently i have had in person training.
I think the online materials are sufficient for you to pick up the basics and work from there

Using TIBCO Cloud Integration core features

Using TIBCO Cloud Integration (including BusinessWorks and Scribe)

3 - We have a dedicated Dynamics support team - these guys are capable of supporting TIBCO scribe as well. Most of our customer integrations are from bespoke in-house systems, or Dynamics NAV/Business Central to Dynamics 365
  • Templates for BC to Dynamics 365
  • Dynamics on prem to Dynamics online
  • Bespoke to Dynamics 365
If you need control over your integrations between a finance application and D365 then TIBCO scribe gives you that capability.

We build in specific error handling and write those errors back into the application so that the user can self serve with issues.
