reviewer2763903 - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Drag-and-drop workflows have accelerated cross-database analysis and simplified daily reporting
I consider user interface modernization in Toad Data Point to be an area for improvement; it could be enhanced with a more modern, web-based look and smoother navigation, focusing on better UX and dashboard customization. Real-time collaboration could benefit from trying Git-style integration, which would strengthen team collaboration features. Performance with large data sets sometimes slows down our workflows, so implementing a better optimization engine specifically for big data workflows could enhance functionality, along with improvements in cloud-native deployment for better browser access. For the dashboarding feature, I believe Toad Data Point could improve by offering more interactive dashboards and advanced visualizations beyond the current basic charts and pivots. Implementing capabilities such as drill-down, interactive filters, and dynamic parameter selections would align more with BI-style interactivity. Visualizations compared to tools such as Microsoft Power BI or Tableau are quite limited, so enhancing this area with cloud-hosted interactive dashboards and seamless auto-refresh options would greatly improve user experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The prebuilt connectors have saved our customers a lot of time and money."
"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 functionality of MuleSoft to connect with any database is the most important feature."
"The product is easy to use. You don't need programming skills to use it."
"MuleSoft Composer is powerful and flexible in terms of installation options, with runtime either on cloud or fully on-premise."
"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."
"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 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."
"What I like the most about Toad Data Point is the automation feature, which is mostly useful for us, and I have not found it in any other systems that I have worked with so far, and it can easily schedule any automation tasks that we provide."
"The Connectivity and Connection Manager supports a broad number of connection types, and it is trivial for end-users to set up their own connections to sources."
"Toad Data Point plays a crucial role in data-driven decision-making processes by facilitating data access and retrieval operations, data analysis, validations, quality checks, and performance monitoring for scenarios such as slow running queries, high database loads, or system bottlenecks, which are valuable for troubleshooting and debugging."
"With Toad Data Point, I can automate most steps automatically."
"I would estimate that Toad Data Point saves me about 30 to 70 percent of my time depending on the work type."
"The most valuable features of Toad Data are you could write a parameterized query and it wouldn't error out, it would give you the parameters that you could input. The auto-formatting feature is useful because it was great for keeping your queries neat and understandable. The auto comment, and uncomment toggles that you could do were convenient."
"Toad Data Point made our query testing a lot faster and more efficient, and we saw a lot of time-saving in our development process."
"It provides better SQL development tooling than SQL Developer, which is not a sufficient tool for all development use cases. It offers power developers the tools they need."
 

Cons

"There is also one limitation. We cannot see logs, latencies, or request counts."
"MuleSoft Composer needs to improve its interface and scalability."
"I used Anypoint Studio, which is good though not very flexible."
"The technical support team's response time must be improved."
"This solution could be improved by offering more integrations with other platforms."
"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."
"There are some challenges with API sharing in Composer."
"What could be improved is probably the user interface."
"It's not user-friendly. Once you start using it, you eventually get to know the features."
"Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction. This could help someone who's not the strongest programmer. If the software could help them write queries correctly it would be very helpful, especially for small development teams or teams that lack the input skills necessary to write and program efficiently."
"The Mac license is incredibly expensive. It is 1,600 dollars each, which is more than the Windows version."
"However, when accessing large data volumes and running complex queries like nested queries or stored procedures, Toad Data Point might get hung during those operations, which is the only significant challenge I encounter."
"On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time. After manually executing the first time, they run with no issues."
"On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time."
"The Mac license is incredibly expensive. It is 1,600 dollars each, which is more than the Windows version. Scalability is difficult when it is that costly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MuleSoft Composer is affordable, and I rate its pricing a five to six out of ten."
"The tool is a bit expensive."
"It's costly, especially for Indian clients."
"Salesforce is licensed by user and by products and so pricing depending on what your requirements are."
"The price of Toad Data Point was approximately $500 annually."
"The Mac licenses are expensive, costing 1,600 dollars each. This is much higher than for the Windows version. I maintain a very limited number of licenses due to this cost."
"The cost of this product is reasonable."
