Pros
"There are always continuous improvements that are happening.""What I found most valuable in Oracle Service Bus is its time to market. It's excellent.""The most valuable feature of this solution is that you can connect with different applications.""The solution is quite stable overall. We haven't witnessed any performance issues so far.""The interface is fine and the solution is quite robust.""Its ease of use is valuable. It's very easy to use. It's no code/low code. Oracle Middleware products are also rich in adapters.""It is stable.""It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."

"With a premium, one can get support 24 hours.""The support training that comes with the product is amazing.""The most valuable feature is that it's the same as Apache Camel.""Red Hat Fuse's best features are that it's very easy to set up and maintain.""One of the features I found most valuable in Red Hat Fuse is that it has a lot of containers so you won't have to worry about load balancing. In the past, there was a cut-off, but nowadays, Red Hat Fuse is moving off of that, so my team is utilizing it the most for load balancing, particularly running goal applications and three to five containers. There's automatic load balancing so you won't have to worry too much. I also found that component-wise, you don't have to do much coding in Red Hat Fuse because everything is configurable, for example, XML-based coding. Coding isn't that difficult. Performance-wise, I also found the solution to be quite good and its processing is quite fast. My team is processing a huge amount of data with the help of Red Hat Fuse.""The solution is stable. We have gone for months or years without any issue. There are no memory restarts, so from my point of view, it's very stable.""It's very lightweight. There's no need for any specialized tools in order to deploy any service for Red Hat Fuse.""The solution has more tooling and options."

Cons
"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit.""There are times when I select components in composite and they do not appear, and I cannot figure out why.""The inconvenient part about working with this product is that it's very heavy, requiring a lot of people and a lot of resources.""There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities.""We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now.""What needs improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the connectivity between adapters such as the Salesforce adapter and database adapters. The limited number of adapters compatible with Oracle Service Bus makes you want to switch to a different solution.""It needs to support more adapters, because the integration points keep changing and new things keep coming up. It also needs to be more scalable.""There are issues, especially if you want to create some compensation in your service bin."

More Oracle Service Bus Cons →

"The testing part, specifically when running it in the cloud, could be improved. It's a little bit complex, especially considering its cloud nature.""In the next release, I'd like more stability and more security overall.""I would like to see more up-to-date documentation and examples from Red Hat Fuse.""As its learning curve is quite steep, developer dependency will always be there in the case of a Red Hat Fuse development. This should be improved for developers. There should be some built-in connectors so the grind of the developer can be reduced.""I don't know the product last versions. I know they are migrating a microservices concepts. We still didn't get there... but we are in the process.""For improvement, they can consider the way we collaborate with other applications...Right now, in Red Hat Fuse, everything is not available under one umbrella.""The web tools need to be updated.""Red Hat Fuse doesn't have a lot of administrative control like other applications."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The price of this solution is better than the subscription-based Mule ESB."
  • "This is a very expensive product and the price varies depending on factors such as the number of processors and the number of users. Our licensing fees are approximately $300,000."
  • "We have an unlimited yearly license."
  • "I'm not aware of how much Oracle Service Bus costs."
  • "The pricing is on the higher side."

  • "We found other solutions were more costly."
  • "This is an open-source product that can be used free of charge."
  • "After doing some Googling and comparisons, the main standouts were MuleSoft and Red Hat Fuse. One of the big factors in our decision to go with Fuse was the licensing cost. It was cheaper to go with Fuse."
  • "Pricing has been something that we have been working with Red Hat on, year over year. We have preferred pricing with the university because we are involved in education and research."
  • "This is an expensive product. It costs a lot and although it's worth the money, the explanations that we need to give to our top executives are highly complicated."
  • "The most important feature of Fuse is the cost. It is open source and a cheap option for an ESB. So, most of the clients in the Middle East and Asian countries prefer this ESB. Other ESBs, like MuleSoft and IBM API Connect, are pretty expensive. Because it is open source, Red Hat Fuse is the cheapest solution, providing almost every integration capability."
  • "My company pays for the license of Red Hat Fuse yearly. At the end of the day, it's a low-cost solution, and its support licenses are still very decently priced versus bigger operators such as IBM, etc. Red Hat Fuse is much more affordable than other solutions. On a scale of one to five, with one being cheap and five being extremely expensive, I'm rating its pricing a one."
  • "Red Hat Fuse is an expensive tool, though I cannot answer how much it costs as that's confidential."
