Integration workflows have become transparent and secure while error tracking is streamlined
The best features in MuleSoft Anypoint Platform for me are transparency between logging in or deploying and using different environments. Managing different environments for the transparency of error logins or how to trace traceability is very important. It's very easy to use and sort, so you can see where everything has gone right and everything has gone wrong. I'm aware of the drag-and-drop interface in MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, and it's very, very quick. It's very time-saving and very efficient. The security features on MuleSoft Anypoint Platform help maintain data integrity in my organization; I would say it's second to none. It's one of the best out there that I have worked with because of the encryption and decryption, and there are a lot of security aspects. I would assess the platform's data mapping and transformation capabilities as amazing. Automation has been straightforward; the transformation and mapping have been easy to use, easy to source, and from the source to the target. I would say it has been very good.

Data pipelines have become streamlined and now connect diverse sources with strong support
How Rivery can be improved is a challenging question, but I think something with the graphics could be better because when there is a lot of code inside, it needs to be more user-friendly. I am not talking about the source-to-target, but when we implement a lot of code, you need a different visual of how you use it, such as what you see in DBT. There is a problem where sometimes I run a river and something in the UI does not get refreshed because I think of browser cache limits, which is annoying. I always need to refresh, and then I am not sure, so I have to go inside the river and look in the log to see if it has finished or not, which takes my time. At the end of the day, when I am running the river, I need it to be done before I go to the next step. Something in the UI could work more smoothly to show it easily. I am not sure why it happens, and I am not sure if there is a solution for it, but if it could be more clear, that would be very nice, such as sending an email once the river is really done.

Pros

"We are very satisfied with the DevOps support."
"The security features on MuleSoft Anypoint Platform help maintain data integrity in my organization; I would say it's second to none."
"The solution's market place for different kinds of integration platforms is the most valuable 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 most valuable features of the Mule Anypoint Platform are the Flex Gateway, API management, easy-to-use, and connectors. Additionally, they are coming out with improvements to the solution when required."
"This is a good platform for designing, flowing out APIs, and then doing API-based integrations."
"Initial setup was very straightforward. Deployment is a cakewalk."
"We use simple queues and exchanges to route messages to multiple queues. The publish/subscribe model is also helpful."
"Connects to many APIs in the market and new ones are being added all the time."
"Rivery has positively impacted my organization by enabling us to create a stable pipeline, and we can expand the variety of the data sources as we go very easily, with no worries, and with a lot of confidence in the fact that it can be done."
"Rivery has positively impacted my organization by helping me streamline my data ingestion and transformation processes, especially in combination with Snowflake."
"The solution's most valuable features are that it is quick to connect and simple to use."
 

Cons

"The pricing can be a little bit less."
"The initial setup should be made easy and the documentation should have some guidance."
"In MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, there is a disadvantage because users need substantial technical understanding, which creates a barrier for citizen developers."
"Lacks intelligent management data and intelligent mappings."
"The price could be improved."
"Adding connectors for new upcoming applications would add extra value to this product."
"There are so many solutions like this, but this is not as mature as those products. The other MQ products have the capability of reprocessing and maintaining the persistence of the data. They can handle large volumes and large messages, but Anypoint MQ doesn't have those capabilities."
"Mule Anypoint Platform could improve by having better integration with MDM. There are challenges when doing the interaction at this time."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was unfortunately not so good in my recent data project."
"Lineage and an impact analysis or logic dependency are lacking."
"Pricing is a little steep for smaller organizations, I would say. The product's pricing model could be a little bit better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Mule Anypoint Platform is affordable."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing as four or five out of ten."

"The pricing of our solution is highly competitive. While it may not be categorized as exceptionally low, it is certainly more affordable compared to IBM."
"I rate the product price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"I rate the tool's price as six out of ten if I consider the lowest price to be one and the highest price to be ten."
