Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration vs WSO2 Enterprise Integrator comparison

"The product is robust."

"The most valuable feature is that API Gateway is extremely flexible for any feature, such as connecting to Active Directory to pull the users and their authentication information. There are three ways to connect to Active Directory, and the reason for this is that the computing environments of our customers are very different. Every feature in API Gateway has got multiple methodologies for accomplishing those tasks, which is important because customers are constantly changing their security models, IT models, networks, etc. API Gateway is very flexible. It is not a one size fits all sort of situation where it is very rigid, and you can only use these pull-down menus, and that's all it ever does. It is much more open than that. It can give you fabulous reports on your users, usage, security issues, and the data sets that are going through there. You'll suddenly have visibility on the movement of data within or between your organization and other organizations. The other thing is that you're connecting API to API, which is machine to machine. The things that were done manually in an Excel spreadsheet before exchanging data through email are now done machine to machine and server to server. It speeds up the velocity of your business."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is very easy to use."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is quite a stable solution."

"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."

"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."

"The solution basically conforms to our standards."

"The solution's customer service is good."

"It was mostly easy to set up the product."

"The installation process is easy."

"The learning curve for this solution is very good."

"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."

"Because it is so flexible, you really need someone who knows Axway Gateway or has been through the training and is certified. Just because you know APIs doesn't mean you're going to walk into that API Gateway and understand what to click on. If you're going to get something done quickly, you need to find an engineer from a company who has some experience with it. It is easy to learn, but if you're doing on-the-job training, it is going to take you longer to get your project accomplished."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is an expensive solution."

"The most important point to improve is the capability to deploy in large enterprises."

"The product must improve its visibility and scalability."

"The customization can be a bit difficult."

"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."

"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."

"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."

"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."

"They should release upgrades more frequently."

"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."

"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."

"Users need to pay an annual licensing fee for the solution."

"The product is not expensive."

"API Gateway is priced on the number of transactions you run through it. API Gateway is free, and you can install as many API Gateways as you like or are necessary for your network. For example, if all of the data is inside your network or firewall, you may just need one API Gateway. If you have external customers trying to come into your organization through your firewall, you're going to need one API Gateway outside the firewall and one inside the firewall. If you have a lot of remote offices, you may want to put API Gateway in some of those offices as well. They only charge you for your usage of it. In other words, the number of transactions going through it. That's a good benefit."

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."

"It is a low-cost solution."

"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."

"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."

"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."

"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
