Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use IBM App Connect for the integration between the applications."
"Technical support is good."
"I would say that the most valuable feature is the array of connectors and integration tools."
"When using IBM stacks, IBM App Connect is suitable and integrates well with other IBM products like WebSphere."
"It has different type of interfaces that can integrate with companies."
"There is a friendly interface for configuration, and integration is made easy."
"I like the adapters. The adapters help us achieve scalability. If you want to connect to SAP, there's an adapter. Salesforce? There's an adapter. You want to connect to another system? There's likely an adapter for that."
"It can handle API conversions with mapping and transformation rules, simplifying the development process."
"The most valuable feature is their integrations and very good API management."
"The solution's market place for different kinds of integration platforms is the most valuable feature."
"The monitoring capabilities of this product are very good because of the feedback it supplies in statistics."
"I have found several things most valuable, including its very quick implementation that you can use a lot of out of the box templates, and lastly that it is a very mature product, especially in hybrid integration."
"The tool's visual features are attractive."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is a huge list of available connectors for a lot of different platforms, which we can use very easily."
"This is the easiest and best tool available."
"It's easy to develop APIs."
"The interface could be better."
"The setup time for App Connect could be improved."
"More connectors could be available for the product as some of the third-party software doesn't have default connectors."
"When we do a version upgrade of the system, the platform is kind of complicated."
"The addition of string functionality would be a benefit, particularly in the ESQL space that IBM already uses internally."
"IBM App Connect is scalable. From the administration side, they need to improve the RBAC model, as well as the clustering of this product. It will be good if we can start up the cluster, via IBM Connect Console. Some other products like MuleSoft, are providing this type of administration. MuleSoft is easy to use and user friendly."
"In the next release, I would like to get some quality connectors."
"The user interface of IBM App Connect can be a little bit more user-friendly, I would say because the first-time developer is onboarded while using IBM App Connect, he or she may get a little intimidated or daunted looking at all the options available or the pipelines, et cetera."
"It doesn't work well when you try using it for the processing layer."
"Price-wise, it is a good product since it is reasonably priced...Mule Anypoint Platform can get too complex for non-technical people."
"Mule Anypoint Platform could improve by having more up-to-date adapters to do work in a digital space."
"The terms of use and how it's priced has become very difficult to manage, which is forcing us to look for alternatives already - and we haven't even been using it for that long just yet."
"Mule should have better B2B integration."
"The solution's licensing methodologies could be improved."
"The solution's pricing model is very strange, and it will be really expensive if you use APIs a lot."
"There is not much information on the internet...The transforming message is an area in the solution that needs to be improved."
