Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, MuleSoft, IBM and others in Business-to-Business Middleware."There were no concerns with the stability. This product is very good from a stability perspective."
"Mule works very well with Salesforce and CRMs."
"The ability to define multi-tiered APIs and reuse them is a fantastic platform feature."
"Whenever we need some support in our local language, we get it easily. They also have an office in Germany and if a person is unable to contact them by phone, they can go to the office in person."
"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"This is a good platform for designing, flowing out APIs, and then doing API-based integrations."
"It is a stable product...The initial setup was simple."
"Mule Anypoint Platform is our preferred platform for integration."
"We can use it to script and monitor processes."
"It is stable and reliable. We have not had any issues."
"Among the most valuable features are the EDI translator and a lot of the components which enable creating compliance sets. Having something standard out-of-the-box and being able to use that has been a huge benefit for us."
"It used to take half an hour to move one file from one location to another. Now, it takes 10 minutes."
"One of the things that SEEBURGER always touts is their ability to do "any to any" formatting... it doesn't matter if you want to take a CSV file or an XML file or a flat file or a PDF file or a structure EDI file; you can transform it from one format to another - any to any or even to the same format - which is a really nice feature."
"With SEEBURGER BIS, you can string as many different activities together in your workflows as you want. You can put them in any order, like a piece of code. One leads into the next, which leads into the next. It is just very flexible from that vantage point. This makes it so easy to use and reduces the number of moving parts that you need to have. It is just a lot less frustrating not having to conform to how some other vendor software works."
"SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite (BIS) has been good at communicating between two applications, changing formats and using the required protocols... We can have one site communicating in an old FTP or SFTP style, or via file transfer. And with other applications, we could have API or a web service call or some other protocol used to send information."
"We rarely get hanged processes."
"I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME)."
"The runtime management and connectors could use some work and are vulnerable to breakage after upgrades."
"It has different types of subscriptions. For platinum or lower subscriptions, there are not too many things that can be done. We don't see many features. They should release a basic version that has logging and monitoring features. These features should come with Mule Anypoint Platform for free instead of making customers pay separately for these features. Its dashboard can be improved to have a lot of charts so that it is easy to visualize information. The utilization part can be improved. The dashboard is good currently, but it can be better. Other solutions like Elastic have a good dashboard, and they allow you to administer the product from the UI. Currently, for RTF, there is a different dashboard or utility. It would be good to include the same utility in the cloud solution. It would be good if there is a centralized repository that includes the links to the information about various troubleshooting issues. The documentation is there currently, and it is good, but the troubleshooting information is too scattered. We have to go to different links to find troubleshooting information. This kind of centralized repository would be helpful for new customers who are implementing this solution. It will be helpful to see different kinds of issues that can occur."
"In order to set up a storefront, we currently rely on a third-party solution. It would greatly enhance our operations if this feature was integrated into their existing solution."
"I would like to see some data integration and automation."
"The initial setup should be made easy and the documentation should have some guidance."
"Code quality, Code Security, SaaS, and DaaS security, can all be improved."
"One area we'd like to see improvement in is the error logging and troubleshooting process."
"Mule Anypoint Platform could improve by having more up-to-date adapters to do work in a digital space."
"The product is not integrated very well with different cloud providers. We did work with the vendor to build a solution for Amazon, but there is no solution for other cloud providers like Google or Azure. The vendor needs to create adapters so that if we have a requirement to transfer data from our data center to another cloud, outside of Amazon, we would be delighted with that."
"A person whom I work with, and is not very technical, found the setup complex, as there are a lot of steps."
"In some of the other tools out there in the market, you can create one service and use that service without creating a copy. That kind of capability currently doesn't exist in this solution."
"SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite does not have an end user or subscriber console which can show the traffic status."
"On the server side, there are a lot of administration and configuration files that you need to go in and do maintenance on. You have to find them in a certain folder so it's very error-prone and it can be a little time consuming unless it's documented. They could pull some of those individual configuration files into the product itself where there's a better user interface for that."
"Their traditional model is a vendor flow. We are looking to do a customer-based flow, which which require significant development from SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite (BIS). We are working with them to do this using their WebEDI. It is a brand new area for them, but it could be an option in the future."
"There might be some improvements they could make to the portal, but they're not anything that stops me from working."
"Difficult in handling large amounts of data, like when the file has more than 100MB in size."
