At my last place of employment, I used BTS quite a bit. However, I've noticed that managers often want to use it for the wrong things, and developers are hesitant to adopt it.
So, I'm just wondering, how's BTS being used? Please post experiences, not theories. Thanks!

Microsoft BizTalk Server allows connecting diverse software, then graphically creating and modifying process logic that uses that software. BizTalk Server also enables information workers to monitor running processes, interact with trading partners, and perform other business-oriented tasks.
Because BizTalk Server must talk to a variety of other software, it relies on adapters to make this possible. An adapter is an implementation of a communication mechanism, such as a particular protocol. A developer determines which adapters to use in a given situation.
Microsoft BizTalk Server is a middleware product from Microsoft that helps to connect various systems together.
I've worked as a consultant for one the largest oil/energy companies in Europe and they basically use BizTalk for all their messaging/integration stuff. Examples are: Invoices (electronic invoices) sent from and to partners in different formats, sync jobs between AD and third party software that maintains it's own username db and integration between support system and external customers via e-mail. So they have a pretty broad adoption of BizTalk and use a cluster of 5 servers.

We have a few dozen applications that need to interact. We have a single web service based application which controls passing messages between systems. Other systems talk to it and receive messages from it via BizTalk orchestrations etc.
