Developer at Selfemployed

Good for large amounts of data and has a variety of use cases but can be complex to use

It's a very complicated tool. Sometimes the customer wants better, faster transaction times. They want the solution to move as fast as possible. We're trying to scale and grow our application with more servers to get the level of speed desired. Everything from small processes to big batch processing needs to be faster.

BTP Architect at a government with 1,001-5,000 employees

Has supported on-premise deployments well but could improve tool consolidation and flow development flexibility

I have analyzed but haven't used MuleSoft Composer extensively. I am not very proficient in the subject of pricing. Both platforms are performing well. If a customer is more SAP-centric, it makes sense to consider integration suite because of the predefined content. A customer will need to have SAP BTP for side-by-side application extensions. MuleSoft Composer is powerful and flexible in terms of installation options, with runtime either on cloud or fully on-premise. It is quite a popular platform. MuleSoft Composer might be less expensive than SAP integration suite, though this is an assumption as I haven't compared prices. I am accustomed to learning and studying with SAP documentation. The organization is more convenient for me, though there are plenty of documentation and resources for MuleSoft Composer as well. The context is the primary consideration. If a customer uses multiple SAP solutions, not just SAP for accounting, it makes sense to consider the integration suite due to better SAP compatibility. When SAP introduces new interface technology, integration suite will be the first to support it, while MuleSoft Composer will need time to develop new connectors. I rate this solution a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Topaz is Xpediter. It's more flexible than Xpediter through MVS."

"It's a modernized development portal and helps reduce the learning curve for younger people coming in to work on the platform,"

"We had parallel development before, but the way ISPW implements it is better. It has more control and oversight of the process, whereas before, it was like the Wild West. Everybody could have their own package with their own version of the component in it... ISPW is constantly aware of it. It notifies when someone else is using or has a different version of that component."

"The debugging is really the most important feature, enabling us to be able to step through."

"It's a modernized development portal and helps reduce the learning curve for younger people coming in to work on the platform."

"Topaz workbench is one of the most integrated into Eclipse that I've seen from the mainframe vendors."

"It does our CICS NEWCOPYs and our Db2 binds for us, whereas before, that was a manual process. It takes a lot of the workload off of the operations folks and off the DBAs."

"The most valuable feature of Topaz is Xpediter, it's more flexible than Xpediter through MVS."

More BMC AMI DevX pros

"If you are a Salesforce customer, it is best for you to use Composer because you're going to remain in the same ecosystem."

"The way Composer organizes and manages integration processes is most beneficial. We can easily monitor what's running and what isn't and troubleshoot any data integration issues."

"MuleSoft Composer is powerful and flexible in terms of installation options, with runtime either on cloud or fully on-premise."

"The functionality of MuleSoft to connect with any database is the most important feature."

"The advantage of using MuleSoft as part as the Salesforce ecosystem is that anything new they build is guaranteed to work with the new features that are coming from the other side."

"The prebuilt connectors have saved our customers a lot of time and money."

"The solution invokes some RPS from Composer and then sends emails and flat notifications. It helps us integrate with any third-party SAPE or integration tools."

"The product is easy to use. You don't need programming skills to use it."

Cons

"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it. It's not easy to see how it works."

"I'm waiting to see what 19.2 for Topaz looks like, but I have a problem with the JES Explorer right now. It limits you to a certain prefix for job names and there are some groups that have multiple prefixes that they'd like to see all at once in their job names, because of how they work in a group. And they can't see that in the JES Explorer."

"It's not as intuitive as it should be. In terms of navigation, there is a large training curve for using it. For a millennial it might be better, if they're used to Eclipse. But coming from a non-Eclipse environment and using Eclipse, though I have experience with Eclipse, it might be cumbersome."

"Technical support has gotten better over the years, though there's always room for improvement."

"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it."

"Technical support has gotten better over the years, though there's always room for improvement."

"Topaz Workbench often doesn't play well with other plugins in the environment."

"Initial setup can be tricky in some cases."

More BMC AMI DevX cons

"This solution could be improved by offering more integrations with other platforms."

"There are some challenges with API sharing in Composer."

"I used Anypoint Studio, which is good though not very flexible."

"The technical support team's response time must be improved."

"MuleSoft Composer needs to improve its interface and scalability."

"There is also one limitation. We cannot see logs, latencies, or request counts."

"This solution could be improved by offering more integrations with other platforms."

"One additional feature they could add might be something like regional prices. Since we're based in Brazil, we pay in dollars but earn in Brazilian Real."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The only thing I would mention related to the licensing and/or the pricing, is that they have some visualization features in there that are licensed by concurrent users. We're starting to trip up on that. We're looking to probably increase the number of concurrent licenses that we have. But those types of licensing strategies, where they license by concurrent users or the number of seats is confusing for some people. They don't understand why it works sometimes and doesn't work other times."

"It has saved our developers time and effort when working on documentation, which is now more readable and fluent."

"I like the seat-based licensing much more than MSU-based licensing, and that the cost has been competitive."

"The price point is great."

"In general, Compuware tools are very competitive."

"In terms of pricing, there isn't an extra charge for the parts of it we use. It comes with the licenses we purchased for other products, so no complaints there. The licensing is built in with the other products that you purchase from Compuware."

"Salesforce is licensed by user and by products and so pricing depending on what your requirements are."

"The tool is a bit expensive."

"MuleSoft Composer is affordable, and I rate its pricing a five to six out of ten."

"It's costly, especially for Indian clients."
