Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, MuleSoft, Software AG and others in Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)."The stability is mostly pretty good."
"IBM support is fantastic and quick."
"Promotes the reuse of developed resources to more efficiently consume resources."
"The message queue feature is very valuable."
"IBM Integration Bus' most valuable features are its performance, fast and easy development, and easy support."
"The product helps efficiently work with different connectors from different back-end systems."
"I recommend it for large enterprises but only for specific use cases. You need to have a relatively mature integration practice in your organization to leverage its capabilities fully."
"The message queue connectors are the most valuable feature. They have built-in connectors for most of the systems, like SAP and Oracle Database."
"The solution is very easy to use. I can download the trial version and just give it a go."
"It would be beneficial for it to function more as an iPaaS, with the runtime available in the cloud, potentially on platforms like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud."
"The solution needs instruction or guidance."
"It provides all the features that are required for day-to-day work. So far, I haven't seen any major issues that impact our work. I have been told that IBM App Connect Enterprise, which is the next version of IIB, is really good. It is better than IIB, and it gives you more coverage in terms of application integration."
"In terms of improvement, the UI should be more user-friendly."
"The product does not provide API management."
"We have to stop the integration server to start the debugging process."
"I can't say that there is any improvement I’m looking for. I’m new and haven’t connected with all features. For all drawbacks that were in the old version, I think they have been solved. The scalability needs improvement."
"They need to come up with Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS). It should also have a feature for integrating with those applications that are on the cloud."
"The EPA, from what I understand, lacks a lot of features and it doesn't really know how to interface with legacy systems or how to develop APIs for legacy systems."
