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.

Effective data transformation and integration in complex environments with high functionality

Something that could be improved in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is that the problem is not a lack of capability or functionalities. The problem is that it is a very complex environment. To put your hand on this environment is a very demanding task. This is the real problem. The problem is not about the product, but about the complexity to manage, to configure, to decide what to do. I have some experience using SAP R/3. It seems to me something similar. When you have to configure a situation with a client, especially for a client not in an industrial sector, but in a service sector, it is quite usual that you are in trouble for some reason. This is always the story that I found in the implementations I have done. Maybe there are only three or four big problems, in some other cases there are more than that, but this is the situation usually. For WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, not the same, but I must say it is quite often there is a need to put together some pieces and make it work in a coordinated way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The community manager is the standout feature of the Mule Anypoint Platform, as it provides a platform to showcase your API to external parties. It is exceptionally user-friendly and enables external parties to easily utilize and consume the APIs."

"The API-led connectivity approach of MuleSoft Anypoint Platform offers specific functionality based on various conditions."

"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."

"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 ability to define multi-tiered APIs and reuse them is a fantastic platform feature."

"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."

"I have found several things most valuable, including its very quick implementation, that you can use a lot of out of the box templates, and lastly that it is a very mature product, especially in hybrid integration."

"Messaging and queueing solution that has good stability and scalability. It can be used for a variety of messaging types."

More MuleSoft Anypoint Platform pros

"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."

"WSO2 Enterprise Integrator may cost you about twenty-five thousand dollars annually per year compared to IBM Cloud Pak, which would cost you around one million dollars."

"The built-in connectors help with quick connectivity to the platforms, and we are using this for both our banking and insurance clients."

"While I am still exploring the solution, I've so far been pretty satisfied with it."

"The solution's customer service is good."

"The stability is excellent."

"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."

"From the capabilities and functional possibility and anything else technical, it is a very well-done product, I have to say."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator pros

Cons

"Previously, Mule version 3 was, of course, very unstable."

"It's extremely expensive to change things in Anypoint MQ, e.g. we have to go through either Accenture or IBM."

"It has different types of subscriptions. For platinum or lower subscriptions, there are not too many things that can be done."

"Pricing is one aspect of the solution that is troublesome. It's too expensive for smaller organizations."

"Mule should have better B2B integration."

"The pricing and licensing can be a little bit expensive."

"The tool requires programming language."

"Anypoint MQ's capabilities are mainly used for messaging purposes, but it doesn't have typical use cases that extend as far as other Message Queue software."

More MuleSoft Anypoint Platform cons

"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."

"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."

"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."

"The scalability is not strong. If you want to scale it you have to install multiple servers."

"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."

"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Mule Anypoint Platform is affordable."

"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."

"The product is still very expensive."

"Mule is not the cheapest integration platform out there, but it deserves the price we are paying."

"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."

"Mule Anypoint Platform pricing is slightly higher compared to Dell Boomi."

"The solution is the priciest in the market which is an issue for some clients."

"Licensing can be complex as is the case with most iPaaS/cloud offerings."

More MuleSoft Anypoint Platform pricing and cost advice

"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."

"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."

"It is a low-cost solution."

"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."

"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
