Provides application integration and reduces time and effort during upgrades
One of the most valuable aspects was its impact on reducing time and effort during upgrades. Previously, SAP upgrades required significant coordination with multiple teams. Now, thanks to our streamlined integration approach, the SAP team interacts primarily with the integration team. When changes are needed, we simply create a new version. This allows application teams to migrate gradually from the old version to the new one, without extensive involvement from the SAP team. Moreover, our approach has improved reliability by eliminating duplicated efforts. Previously, different teams would often duplicate data sets due to inefficiencies in data naming conventions. We centralized data integration, ensuring that all applications use the same data set.

A cloud solution that has a lot of connectors, but it should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples
Smaller customers who want to integrate with other systems don't need too much in-house expertise in terms of technology. They can hire consultants who can implement this solution for them, and they don't have to maintain any infrastructure. For a smaller setup, it is a go-to integration system wherein they don't need a lot of expertise or infrastructure. The solution's UI is pretty intuitive and easy. It is good for smaller integration use cases. I think it would be a problem for bigger use cases. Overall, I rate TIBCO Scribe a six out of ten.

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is a huge list of available connectors for a lot of different platforms, which we can use very easily."

"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."
"The tool helps with order management and automates the enterprise's orchestration, invoice creation, product maintenance, and product life cycle. The API manager feature helps us configure, secure, and call APIs."
"It can scale."
"The monitoring capabilities of this product are very good because of the feedback it supplies in statistics."
"Overall, it is a pretty good product. It is also very scalable."
"It is very easy to use for building connectors. It comes with a lot of connectors. For example, it has different adapters for NetSuite, which are very easy to use. It also has Salesforce connectors. The object store feature is also really easy to use. Mule Anypoint Platform is also good in terms of performance and how it is managed behind the scenes."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"Over the years, Mule Anypoint Platform has undergone significant improvements. When I first started using it, the API gateway capabilities were fairly basic."
"The terms of use and how it's priced has become very difficult to manage, which is forcing us to look for alternatives already - and we haven't even been using it for that long just yet."
"The solution's licensing model is expensive and could be improved."
"The customer service is not good enough"
"Anypoint MQ could improve the user interface."
"One area for improvement is the Community Hub or developer portal, which should be part of the base offering."
"Information on monitoring could be improved."
"The product does not provide a priority level for the message."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is still very expensive."
"Mule Anypoint Platform is an expensive solution."
"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."
"Price-wise, it is a good product since it is reasonably priced."
"The licensing is core-based. My customers tell me that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites."
"Mule is not the cheapest integration platform out there, but it deserves the price we are paying."
"The tool is heavily bundle-priced. I rate the solution’s pricing five on a scale of ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."
