"MuleSoft offers with the Anypoint Platform a unified platform for API management and an integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) as well as an on-premise Enterprise Service Bus pattern."
"The product supports various types of digital documents, including XMLs and EDI."
"The ease of mapping... is the single largest feature. It gives us the ability to craft anything. A lot of single-purpose technologies, like Mirth, are good for healthcare messages, but we use webMethods not only for healthcare messages but for other business-related purposes, like integrations to Salesforce or integrations to Office 365. It's multi-purpose nature is very strong."
"High throughput and excellent scalability."
"The most valuable feature of the webMethods Integration Server is its reliability. It has a lot of great documentation from the service providers. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API."
"It is a very stable product."
"It's a visual tool, so our transformations can be quickly implemented without a lot of fuss. The fact that we have an easy way to expose REST services is also very interesting. It offers the possibility to connect over GMS to synchronize message brokers."
"Broker and UM are the best features."
"What I hear from my customers is that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites. The cost keeps increasing. MuleSoft should come up with customization factors by using a different way of getting the cost-related stuff to attract customers. That is, they should come up with some cost optimizations."
"It would be better if we had a clearer view of the solution's future releases."
"Pricing is one aspect of the solution that is troublesome. It's too expensive for smaller organizations."
"There is not much information on the internet...The transforming message is an area in the solution that needs to be improved."
"The solution's licensing methodologies could be improved."
"The price could be improved."
"The platform's data integration tools need improvement on the processing side."
"The pricing can be a little bit less."
"The deployment should be simplified."
"I'd like to see the admin portal for managing the integration server go up a level, to have more capabilities and to be given a more modern web interface."
"It is quite expensive."
"The stability of the various modules of the product suite have been a bit of a concern lately. Though their support team is always easy to reach out to, I would prefer it not come to that."
"In terms of improvement, it would be better if it adapted quicker to open standards. It took a while for API specification before the last version was available. The spec of version two was rather quick."
"This is a great solution and the vendor could improve the marketing of the solution to be able to reach more clients."
"It could be more user-friendly."
"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."
