Easy to use with flexible pricing, but needs more flexibility surrounding integrations
The EPA, from what I understand, lacks a lot of features and it doesn't really know how to interface with legacy systems or how to develop APIs for legacy systems. I'm not sure if it is possible, however, we would like to see features that allow for legacy systems so that they can continue to be developed and managed well. The solution should provide some more general studio features. We should be able to manipulate the platform in order to do some integrations on our own. There needs to be a bit more flexibility.
Radhey Rajput - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows seamless integration and connectivity with different types of systems
I would suggest using this solution. Oracle Service Bus is very good. Any organization can use it. So it's very robust and scalable, and its security features are very good. Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten because there are some loopholes in service and support. Sometimes, when we have issues and go to Oracle support, they will not give us solutions. Instead, they will ask for so many log files and emails. The product is good, but the support is not.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is very easy to use. I can download the trial version and just give it a go."
"The flexibility offered by Oracle Service Bus, especially in the latest versions, includes abstracting underlying processes and enabling drag-and-drop mappings from source to destination."
"Its ease of use is valuable. It's very easy to use. It's no code/low code. Oracle Middleware products are also rich in adapters."
"The interface is fine and the solution is quite robust."
"The communication between applications is already defined, which means that you don't have to redefine your service infrastructure at the lower level."
"It is lightweight and one can easily integrate with different applications, databases, JMS, or web services through different protocols."
"It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."
"With Oracle Service Bus, we can connect with different types of systems. Another feature I like the most is the security feature."
"API management and defining varying protocols are the most valuable features"
 

Cons

"The EPA, from what I understand, lacks a lot of features and it doesn't really know how to interface with legacy systems or how to develop APIs for legacy systems."
"It needs to support more adapters, because the integration points keep changing and new things keep coming up. It also needs to be more scalable."
"The initial setup is likely complex for many organizations."
"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."
"While I have not used the latest versions, resource efficiency could be optimized, considering past experiences"
"Lacks sufficient cloud compatibility."
"Security features can be improved to better protect the server."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"Security needs to be more integrated."
