Verdict
For organisations that are looking to streamline integration between systems or automate workflow tasks, it is hard to go past BizTalk Server 2006. Improvements over previous versions see BizTalk rise to the challenge of exchange information between systems, including smart logic and workflow and even mid-size organisations will benefit from automating manual processes. The adaptors that ship with the product make exchanging data between applications a relatively simple process and there is a growing marketplace of vendors offering BizTalk adaptors to integrate with enterprise and mid-range applications. If you are considering application integration or workflow for your organisation, BizTalk is definitely worth a look.
