Cons
"It should include/add more services with the product as per market demand.

That could be something that is included.""The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services.""You should not hurry with upgrades without testing the whole product completely.""Aurea CX Messenger could improve by making better use of the new APIs""The solution needs to improve support for new, more recent protocols on the API."

More Aurea CX Messenger Cons →

"Limitation on external subscribers to listen to the messages on the bus.""There are limitations with the subscription model that comes with the product.""The initial setup could be more straightforward.""Mule ESB could be more user-friendly.

More Mule ESB Cons →

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Much better than Oracle SOA Suite."
  • "You pay nothing for licensing, because the commercial model is a subscription. Other environments, such as QA and Development, are included in the subscription"
  • "The pricing is not so high."
  • More Aurea CX Messenger Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This is expensive. In my next project, we had to go to other vendor."
  • "Plan your licensing model (cloud or on-premises or hybrid) that will allow seamless integration with new partners."
  • "The various features and components for this solution are no longer free."
  • "The licensing is yearly, and there are additional fees for services."
  • "This product is cheaper than some offered by other vendors, although there is a problem because you have to pay for some third-party adapters."
  • "Most of the challenges that I had with this solution were for smaller customers. There is not a good licensing model or pricing model. It is more expensive than other solutions, and that's the downside of MuleSoft. I had to be creative to be able to sell it to the business, but we did. This is something they have to work on because for large companies, it's affordable, but for small and medium businesses, it's very hard to sell."
  • "This product is expensive, but it does offer value for money."
  • "I think the price is very high. If you use TIBCO BW, the license is for the CPU usage, then the IPS, and support. I also think the license for the product is a one-time expense."
  • More Mule ESB Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The price of this solution is better than the subscription-based Mule ESB."
  • "This is a very expensive product and the price varies depending on factors such as the number of processors and the number of users. Our licensing fees are approximately $300,000."
  • "We have an unlimited yearly license."
  • "I'm not aware of how much Oracle Service Bus costs."
  • "The pricing is on the higher side."
