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."The multi-approach and the multi-capabilities are valuable."
"I consider the solution to be one of the most stable in the market."
"The product is usually very easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is that it's robust and its time to market is very short."
"I found all features valuable. There are a lot of connectors."
"It aligns well with containerized environments, which increases its scalability and high availability."
"It allows us to avoid the need for consumers to understand multiple API protocols and security arrangements, and in some circumstances can reduce the impact of systems being unavailable."
"The message queue feature is very valuable."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"It was mostly easy to set up the product."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The price could be better. It would also be better if they simplified the code."
"The performance needs to be enhanced when working with the Toolkit."
"Sometimes migration takes too long."
"This product uses the PVU (Processor Value Unit) license model from IBM, and it is something that should be improved."
"Migrating to this solution is complex and it would be helpful if they had a way to convert existing integrations."
"The product lacks an integrated testing module."
"IBM does not support orchestration, which is how they designed it, and other BPM tools in the market support orchestration. If they merged the BPM capability into this product, then it would be a better solution."
"We have come across many customer complaints about the excessive time it takes for IBM to provide customer and technical support."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."
"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
