IBM MQ Product
What do you like best about the product?
IBM MQ is very easy to use and helps the business to reduce the complexities by connecting applications through channels and retrieving messages through queues. The cluster facility helps in managing the MQ objects anywhere in the cluster. Easy administration and Easy for the business to send the data.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no findings for me to let you know about dislikes but in my experience when I have done the MQ for z/OS migration from V 7.1 to V 9 we faced an issues with the application on the distributed side where they were using the MQ version as V 7.0.1. The SVRCONN channel on the Z/OS side connects to distributed side application and the clients were not compatible. However the application team have written a code to mitigate the issue after a long brainstorming sessions about the issue. IBM can help such customers by providing an alternatives for establishing connections through PTFs on the z/OS side and patches on the distributed client side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The issues solved using the IBM MQ is that applications are able to send data to each other by reducing the complexities of network.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use this product where any one are looking for sending the data from one system to another as MQ would take care of the data conversion. It might help you to reduce the system complexities.
Backbone of middleware
What do you like best about the product?
MQ series has been around for decades and proven to be reliable product
What do you dislike about the product?
UI has not evolved a lot over the years.. not an issue though
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Follow hub and spoke architecture and seamlessly connect various platforms
stable and reliable messaging prouduct
What do you like best about the product?
customers trust it and requires less support
What do you dislike about the product?
developers not having limited access on their MQ objects
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
filtering in pubsub , message transfer to disparate applications
Recommendations to others considering the product:
stable product for messaging and pubsub
Best use for messaging
What do you like best about the product?
I am a java developer and I have got chance to work with IBM MQ which is great as it provides all the facilities to send a message and consume a message and It is very easy to connect and work with it
What do you dislike about the product?
It helps to do my complete my work So I have no issues
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As i have told before I use it for JMS purpose and facilitates my work
MQ at work
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to message secure and confidential information. I t makes sharing data easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is not the most user friendly and at times is hard to navigate
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
`The ability to confidentially share data with colleges is the main purpose for my use of this product.
Websphere MQ is a good Messaging option
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use-Remote Queue and Local Queue concept is very good.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not available as freeware option like ActiveMQ.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It help to integrate most of the system, where real-time response was not required.
Robust messaging software
What do you like best about the product?
This robust messaging software gives 100 percent high availability and dependability on it. I completely trust this IBM MQ and we never have to bounce the queue managers. I work as admin for this software and installation and maintenance is very easy
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost associated with IBM products is always a concern. IBM has to revise the cost in this competitive world.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using the software to transfer messages between different applications that belong to client and us. The client sends messages from all frontend applications and our application from backend take the messages to process them
Recommendations to others considering the product:
get IBm products for stability
IBM MQ good solution for exchanging data
What do you like best about the product?
It is very easy to setup and configure. It has best functionality to transfer large volume of data. exchanging of data between integrated systems using mq is very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
As such no bad impression. I think it is best mq product available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used it in my previous organisation for exchanging customer data between integrated systems. Our product was used to put an order basically, integrated systems send some kind of verification data across the systems. for exchange of this data we used IBM MQ.
Stable message queuing system
What do you like best about the product?
MQ and message queuing is not the most sexy of applications. Few will have a need for it, but when you do, you'll realise how critical this can be. If you build a system that needs to support hundreds/thousands of transactions per hour, the biggest worry is to lose one. If your servers can't process these transactions fast enough, this is bound to happen. This is where MQ fits in. Instead of directly processing your transactions, you store it in MQ instead, and have your processing engine read from the queue instead. This not only prevents losing transactions, it also removes the need to always throw more cpu to handle extra transaction loads, by being able to process them asynchronously, you can continue to process transactions at a constant rate. Also, if any piece of software crashes/fails, you can feel secure in knowing you arenot losing anything while you remedy the problem.
What do you dislike about the product?
MQ is not a simple system to figure out, proper installation and configuration can take some time, especially if you don't have any experience. But I wouldn't let that scare you away, the benefits far outweigh the cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this for all our Sap integration, and is central to running our business. We have multiple ordering platforms (web,EDI, Siebel, fax), that all need to exchange information with Sap.. As an example, a sales order comes in and is saved to a queue. A middleware will pick up the order from the queue, do some data manipulation and send the order to sap. Sap will send an order confirmation to the queue which the middleware will pick up and send to the ordering platform. The order is also sent to the warehouse for processing, and delivery details are sent to the ordering platform via MQ again. This process goes on for all steps of the sales order proces.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to run an integrated transactional system, this tool needs to be part of your solution. Your systems might be working today as is, but the day your systems won't be able to handle the volume, you'll kick your self fonot doing so. Spare yourself the headaches and include MQ in your architecture.
