Find out in this report how the two Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The support is good and active. I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"This product is well integrated with other products. Its ability to interact with IBM Secure Gateway and other integration products is the core feature. Also, the lead time to put it into production is relatively short ."
"It gives a holistic environment for us to set up the APIs and that's the main value that it adds. It gives end to end for us."
"This is a very easy to use solution."
"Policy configurations are pretty easy."
"One of the most valuable features is the easy-to-use web interface."
"It's quite flexible and easy to deploy, especially for beginners. It has almost all the features that an API gateway should have."

"Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration."
"Oracle's self-service capabilities, of which we make extensive use, is the most valuable feature."
"I would like to see support for non-Java based services. We struggle a bit to be able to deploy and connect our .NET services because of things like data types. We had to map a couple of things. For one solution provider, we had to move them to .NET Core before we could use it properly. I would like to see more agnostic tool service platforms rather than moving it more towards Java or open source."
"Due to bugs in integration, we have to look for workaround on fixing and using DataPower as gateway."
"One thing about API Connect that could be improved is the security schemes. There are so many security schemes, and from a product perspective, IBM could improve the user experience of the configuration security scheme."
"Installation is weak."
"The new version is very unstable."
"Firstly, the pricing model, when compared to other open sources, is high. Secondly, the availability of resources in the market, specifically the developers available in the market, is not so much."

"API Connect's analytics subsystem could be improved to make it easier to render content from the analytics system and offload it to an external database."
"The solution's release management feature could be better."
"The products, at the moment, are new and there should perhaps be support for the older version of the protocols."
"It is difficult to maintain."
"webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier."
"Rules engine processes and BPM processes should be improved."
