Integration experience improves operational efficiency and automation
It is very easy to integrate, and the pre-built APIs available to connect multiple systems help establish connections faster and more accurately. Customers need not worry about data volume flow, and Oracle charges based on usage. Multiple packages are available, such as 10 million messages per annum, allowing customers to choose packages for optimum cost. Oracle Integration Cloud Service makes it simple to connect any third-party products, and Oracle is key for adding pre-built APIs. For all major products, the APIs are available from Oracle itself. The implementation is simple because sufficient documentation is available, and my team has developed expertise. We know precisely what needs to be done. Based on scenarios, customers can have everything within their channel.

Decreases the development timeframe and costs
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. Often, customers decide to develop using open-source tools like Spring Boot if there aren't many connectors required to avoid increasing costs. They'll develop this way and then deploy using APIM, the bare minimum needed. It is mainly required for very complicated setups with many connectors. In the implementations I've seen, people often used open-source tools because there weren't many third-party systems involved—just their organization's own systems. From WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, I expect them to bring up more and more connectors in the future. That's the main expectation. Having more connectors in various areas will help us when discussing new requirements. I don't have any specific use case right now, so I can't name a particular connector. But, as new technologies emerge, the relevant connectors should be there for those. WSO2 Enterprise Integrator mainly helps with the integration part, which can be simplified only if you have relevant connectors for whatever you're doing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In general, there were a lot of great utilities for working with files."
"It's very easy to get started on the solution. It's also easy to maintain, scale, and integrate according to cost factors."
"The most important part would be the use of connectors. The significant number of cloud connectors available for active integration is its value."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Integration Cloud Service are the seeded integrations with many communication platforms, such as Slack and emails. It works best for the historical communication methods. Those are still prevalent with all the other clients. When we are doing the integrations, it makes it a little bit easier for us to communicate the same output over Slack, rather than sending out an email and downloading the report. The number of seeded functionalities within the Oracle Integration Cloud Service platform is better."
"It's easy to build an integration and make changes to it."
"Oracle Integration Cloud Service is easy to use."
"The initial setup is easy."
"In my opinion, the most valuable aspect of this solution is its extensive range of adaptors and connectors. This feature holds significant importance and provides great value to users."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"The installation process is easy."
"The solution's customer service is good."
 

Cons

"Now the platform is not built in a way that you can define."
"Lacks features for more complex integrations."
"The error retrying mechanism could be improved. If an error occurs, it can be retried automatically, it would be helpful."
"With JSON, if the tool provides support similar to XML, then it would be helpful."
"It would be helpful if there were more tutorials or documentation to learn about Oracle Integration Cloud Service."
"They should provide tutorials for beginners to learn about the processes."
"The support and resources were lacking — they weren't there."
"While most of the adapters are available through Oracle Integration Cloud Services, they do not have a lot of features. I would like to see some enrichment in this area and for the solution to go deeper into the applications and upgrade the adapters."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"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."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is less expensive than other products."
"Oracle uses a universal credit model for OCI. Clients commit to an annual budget and can choose which products to use and build during their contract period. Billing is based on consumption - you're only billed for the products you use."
"In the case of Oracle Integration Cloud, costs can be "predictable" as far as the platform and infrastructure are concerned."
"The price is fair."
"Pricing is not on the economic side since it is a tool for enterprise-sized companies."
"The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is good. It is reasonable and is priced well for the market segment. The model they use is on a per-package unit and we have a two-year subscription."
"Its pricing is relatively lower than other vendors."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
