Product Information on Solace Platform

“We love Solace, the support has to improve”

2.0
Sep 12, 2025
I am not really happy with the support which is provided. I feel that no one personally cares whether we managed to deploy it. Production issues are not prioritized. Response times are too long. Once I was told that .NET 9 is not supported and the support refused to help.

Solace Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

Real time data transfer around the globe that helps us to thing modern IT architectures in a different way - solving business problems instead of technical burden

Like

It just works. It is reliable.

Like

I really appreciated how reliable and fast this service.

Dislike

binding license to the connection count is limiting us to spread it widely. and having design and run seperated from each other does not help us bringing events to be the standard integration solution

Dislike

The logs are not detailed enough. We would appreciate if we could download a terraform project which would deploy solace brokers to our AWS environment. The first setup was extremely time consuming. Now when I have gained the knowledge, it is not that difficult...

Dislike

- it's difficult to view the consumer on queue from Semp API
