"In Oracle SOA Suite some applications are not able to use REST, but it can support both SOAP and REST. You're able to integrate quite a lot of systems, which may not be able to in other solutions. You can also use XML and JSON. It is a standardizing type of tool. It doesn't matter whether I'm using JSON or XML, it can convert them."
"In case there is something that doesn't work out of the box, you have the flexibility to customize it."
"This is one of the critical products for my company and we use it extensively. We currently use each and every feature of Oracle SOA."
"The most valuable feature is AppFabric's hosting solution, which is what we need for running workflows."
"It's also not developer-friendly."
"They supply lots of documentation but finding what we need is challenging at times."
"The technical support is good, we have premier support which costs extra."
