Likelihood to Recommend
Organization which uses TIBCO Business Works or TIBCO Business Process Management or TIBCO BPM Enterprise can make use of TIBCO Messaging as it works well with other TIBCO tools. Many TIBCO tools have TIBCO Messaging products bundled as a package along with other TIBCO tools. Use of dynamic topics and queues makes run time processing easier.

I would recommend TIBCO Rendezvous to a colleague for several reasons. One of most important could be to use it on different operating systems (i.e. Windows, Linux) and be able to create real-time communications. Another reason could be the easy message addressing: only those who subscribe to specific subject receive the messages.

Pros
  • Tibco EMS performs very well, and it meets our stringent performance requirements for corporate messaging backbone.
  • Tibco EMS scales well, and this is another of our stringent requirements.
  • Tibco provides good support for the EMS product, and continues to improve it. This is important as we don't want to use something that does not keep up with the changes in the technology landscape.

Cons
  • A bit of lag time between data sync and the data reaching the server for some of our field sites.
  • It still seems like a niche product for me with little community support. I didn't know about it before working for a company that deployed it.
  • Certain functionality is too complex to setup as compared to other products on the market.

  • RV doesn't support centralized administration to manage the delivery of synchronous messages in run time without changing its configuration which was done in code base

EMS is a solid system and I see no reason to abandon it, in fact I am eager to see what the next versions will offer and future road maps. Knowing we have support to help us in case of problems is invaluable, both in case of critical issues and to improve overall performance.

Not likely to renew or buy the license as they are using the TIBCO EMS as the primary mode of communication.

Attending an official TIBCO classroom training, where you can have an active participation with an expert teacher, you can find the answers to all yours needs. In any case, if you are not satisfied on your requests, the teacher takes the time to find the best solution.
I had the opportunity to attend one and I could learn all features I needed for my business: now I can say TIBCO Rendezvous is very usable.

I never needed support for TIBCO Rendezvous. I always used it without any issue and until now I don't remember some situations where it interrupted its 24/7 uptime.

Alternatives Considered
We chose TIBCO Messaging not just for its performance but because it looked like the natural way to pave our existing TIBCO Integration architecture. Setting up TIBCO EMS servers and objects seems more straightforward than with most of competitors. It is easy to configure and easy to use and understand.
