Cons
"The initial setup is likely complex for many organizations.""If they can containerize this, that would be nice. If they can provide docker images and offer support for those containers, that would be great.""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.""An area for improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the roadmap for its product launch. Currently, it's unclear, so Oracle should develop a roadmap for version 12c, so people can see what's coming out of that version of Oracle Service Bus. Cloud hosting is an additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Oracle Service Bus.""There are times when I select components in composite and they do not appear, and I cannot figure out why.""Lacks sufficient cloud compatibility.""It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit.""The interface console is very slow. Even in production, we need to increase the RAM or CPU. And even after that, the performance is still not good in production."

"Issues with the support, the fees, and the termination of the professional services are reasons we are looking for other solutions.""The stability of their latest version is not on par with their classic version 5.X.""Migration to cloud solutions or products should be made convenient, transparent, and easily understandable.""In the configuration, where we need to customize, it takes more time that we expect it to, ideally.""In the next release, there should be improvements made to the API manager.""If TIBCO could be able to sort the size of their base image in the Container edition, it would be really marvelous. Right now it's around 299 MB. We'd really want it to reduce to a few MBs.""We'd like to see improvements in product support.""The solution is very expensive when you use multiple components, it would b better if this could be reduced."
