Does anyone have positive or negative thoughts about this platform? Do GUI tools help to eliminate monotonic/redundant coding…or just ambiguous and make things difficult to maintain? Basically, do these benefits justify complexity?
I found that the IBM extension of Eclipse is more Stable, faster, and provide more features (because its stable version is several versions ahead of WID/RAD).
I suggest not to develop tools in the IBM way. As for the process server, my experience Less, but the people in my team who use it seem to like it, just like I like WID. Not a lot.
My company (a large organization) is developing A “roadmap” to develop their rather old, tangled system alliance into an SOA model. Some people are working hard to use Websphere Integration Developer and Websphere Process Server as the de facto platform for developing future applications…because they think IBM is one Stable suppliers, these tools are made for enterprises, they drink “business agility” BPEL kool-aid etc.

My experience of using the IBM Java toolset is very painful. The days to install many different versions of different components are not compatible with each other, and I found that the error in component A was notified Update to see if it is fixed, update component A interrupts components B and C, tell to update these, etc.
