Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"It is extremely high, and I would rate it one out of ten."
"The licensing fees are approximately $80,000 USD per year and there are costs for additional functionality, as well as premiums for connectors to systems such as Oracle and SAP."
"Anypoint is the most expensive solution on the market, as far as I know, though it's also the most capable."
"It is really expensive from a Zimbabwean perspective."
"The product's main drawback is its cost. It's expensive for our company, and their recent change in pricing strategy last year complicated things further. That's the only thing we're not happy with."
"Our customers have a lot of concerns about the increased pricing. The customer feels MuleSoft is very costly, and they are also exploring other integration tools for a lesser price. Maybe we should retain the existing customers by offering some discounts. At least the existing customers can be retained this way. This is regarding the licensing part only because customers based out of North America and Europe have shown many concerns recently. They are a bit concerned about pricing."
"The pricing for this solution is cheaper than GCP and Bluemix."
