Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I really like SQL integration nodes, HTTP nodes, event handling, event monitoring, the performance of the solution."
"The most valuable feature is that it's robust and its time to market is very short."
"The biggest advantage of this solution is that it is very easy to learn, and very easy to build applications."
"The Aspera feature for high-speed transfer is highly effective."
"It can be implemented as an enterprise service bus to seamlessly connect all applications within your enterprise."
"What I like best are the monitoring features."
"The most valuable features of the IBM Integration Bus are the flexibility to easily integrate with other solutions, such as SAP or any other vendors."
"The stability is mostly pretty good."
"The routing and aggregation are the most valuable features. It's split and join."
"It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."
"It is lightweight and one can easily integrate with different applications, databases, JMS, or web services through different protocols."
"This product is not complicated and very easy to learn."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Service Bus is its time to market. It's excellent."
"Supports multiple protocol technologies and web services."
"I like the ease of deployment and the ease of implementation."
"The ability to master the process in one location."
"Recently, there was a lot of instability when selecting the solution they needed for testing."
"Session management can sometimes hand forcing server reboots."
"Performance can be an issue sometimes. The tool occasionally crashes due to memory-related problems. We've reported these issues to IBM, and they are actively working on improving the tooling experience."
"IBM Integration Bus could be easier to manage, but this is true of all vendors. It doesn't always do what it says on the box."
"Storage capacity of the product should be addressed."
"Licensing is too high. It is quite expensive."
"I would like to see more metered rest and API support. IBM is already working on it on Version 11, but it still needs improvement."
"To scale virtically, is difficult."
"It's very complex and hard to learn. There's a steep learning curve."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
"If they can containerize this, that would be nice. If they can provide docker images and offer support for those containers, that would be great."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"The connectivity with the solution is an area that needs to be improved. On occasion, requests are lost due to losing connectivity."
"This solution would benefit from having more cloud-based adapters."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"Security needs to be more integrated."
