MessageXchange vs. TIBCO BusinessConnect

All B2B messages and transactions can be processed with TIBCO BusinessConnect

• Provides good security for b2b transactions over the internet.
• Provides different sets of business protocols which makes it easy to come in agreement with the customers to use any protocols they want for the data transfer.

Incentivized

• Ease of Installation and configuration.
• More detailed reports.

The main reason TIBCO BusinessConnect was selected is because of the overall solution it provides with the different TIBCO products. Since TIBCO BusinessWorks and TIBCO Enterprise Message Service are already in place and the canonical model is already built and integrated into the Information Bus, TIBCO BusinessConnect is the best tool to work with them.

Incentivized

• TIBCO BusinessConnect allows quick setup for the standard data exchange like EDI X12, which is heavily used in the utility industry.
• TIBCO BusinessConnect is preferred to use with other TIBCO products, like EMS and TIBCO BusinessWorks. It will be more effective, if other TIBCO products are planned to be used as well.
• The overall cost for all the TIBCO products may become high, if it's not heavily used. So TIBCO BusinessConnect may not be a good stand-alone tool to use.
