Trusted by Global Leaders Across Industries

With a relentless focus on stability, security, and flexibility, Payara enables enterprises in unlocking the full value of their Java investments.

In terms of support costs Payara is 60% cheaper than JBoss. Our engineers are extremely satisfied with Payara Platform’s performance. They started using Payara Platform in a small scale and as things worked well quickly they have increased their Payara usage exponentially.

IT Engineer, Best Western Hotels & Resorts

Knowledgeable support team, the support service meets our expectations and the Payara Platform works well. We are happy to have opted for the Payara Platform.

Project Leader, Arelion

Payara Platform is super stable and patches to issues are delivered faster than we notice them! For me, as developer, it is important to have access to a Nexus server where I can automatically download the latest releases.

Martin Gysel, DevOps Engineer

Payara Server is a solid platform, which is very stable and easy to maintain. There are no typical server-side problems, such as huge log files which saturate the OS or cause hanging issues. The support is great.

Claudio Mapelli, Regional IT Manager

The software has been tremendously easy to work with. Our transition from WebLogic to Payara Enterprise is still in progress and things are progressing nicely. We have found Payara Server Enterprise to be a lot more user friendly and approachable than WebLogic.
