We performed a comparison between Infor ION and Mule Anypoint Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Business-to-Business Middleware solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I have found the most valuable feature to be the ability to monitor integration performance and the reasons for the failure of inbound and outbound transactions. We can see both inbound and outbound transactions, and it gives us a mirror image or the whole history of all inbound and outbound transactions between Infor M3 Business Engine and the third parties."
"The tool's most valuable feature is middleware capabilities."
"ION is good for building custom middleware boxes."
"We haven't had any issues with ION so far."
"It is a stable product...The initial setup was simple."
"The integration potential is excellent."
"The exchange and API management features are the best in the market."
"The most valuable feature is their integrations and very good API management."
"It can scale."
"MuleSoft Anypoint Platform's most valuable features are its observability and stability."
"The initial setup is quite easy because the solution has a good interface through which the configuration, mapping, and so on can be done."
"Mule Anypoint Platform is our preferred platform for integration."
"I would like to see ION add automated setup and integration with Salesforce. They need to work on these types of tools."
"The dashboard is not very simple and can be a bit tricky."
"ION's integration with older applications could be better."
"Infor ION doesn't provide connectors for all integration touchpoints. Sometimes, we may have to build our own. It incurs additional costs for the customer."
"I would like to see some data integration and automation."
"The initial setup should be made easy and the documentation should have some guidance."
"What I hear from my customers is that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites. The cost keeps increasing. MuleSoft should come up with customization factors by using a different way of getting the cost-related stuff to attract customers. That is, they should come up with some cost optimizations."
"The pricing can be a little bit less."
"The platform's data integration tools need improvement on the processing side."
"An on-premise setup requires special skills and you need a lot of professional services."
"The price could be improved."
"It has different types of subscriptions. For platinum or lower subscriptions, there are not too many things that can be done. We don't see many features. They should release a basic version that has logging and monitoring features. These features should come with Mule Anypoint Platform for free instead of making customers pay separately for these features. Its dashboard can be improved to have a lot of charts so that it is easy to visualize information. The utilization part can be improved. The dashboard is good currently, but it can be better. Other solutions like Elastic have a good dashboard, and they allow you to administer the product from the UI. Currently, for RTF, there is a different dashboard or utility. It would be good to include the same utility in the cloud solution. It would be good if there is a centralized repository that includes the links to the information about various troubleshooting issues. The documentation is there currently, and it is good, but the troubleshooting information is too scattered. We have to go to different links to find troubleshooting information. This kind of centralized repository would be helpful for new customers who are implementing this solution. It will be helpful to see different kinds of issues that can occur."
