Excellent change data capture utility for distributed multi site environment
Customer Service: We have a support contract with Jumpmind. The support resources are readily available and provide expert support to any questions. Technical Support: Jumpmind created and open sourced this solution. All the key players are still actively involved with the technology and provide answers to all our open questions. The consistency we receive from their support is second to none.

Robust, reliable, and stable, ensuring high availability for critical integrations
I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten; it is a highly scalable solution. We have around 200 end users using this solution in our company. We use it to its maximum capacity. However, it's not for P1 applications, but definitely for severity two cases (P2 level). It integrates critical applications, but it's not a platform that, if it stops, the entire system would come down. So, it's more like a severity two level. However, it has the potential to eventually become a P1 platform. Not exactly P1 applications, but a P1 platform. Because now we are still in the transition to migrate everything, all the integrations to Mule Anypoint Platform. But once it's done, then this platform becomes critical. Because even now, we have point-to-point connections.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is a huge list of available connectors for a lot of different platforms, which we can use very easily."
"Mule works very well with Salesforce and CRMs."
"The solution is very scalable with solid performance and the capability of extending it using any custom Java in case you don't have anything out of the box. MDP is strong. It is good compared to other products regarding its capabilities in managing or orchestrating the issue load."
"The most valuable features for us are flexibility, all the features related to connectivity with multiple connectors to the business, and the flexibility of on-premises and cloud deployments."
"The flexibility has been great overall."
"The community manager is the standout feature of the Mule Anypoint Platform, as it provides a platform to showcase your API to external parties. It is exceptionally user-friendly and enables external parties to easily utilize and consume the APIs."
"Whenever we need some support in our local language, we get it easily. They also have an office in Germany and if a person is unable to contact them by phone, they can go to the office in person."
"The tool is very capable and offers a high performance. The tool supports batch processing and ETL processing."
 

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"It doesn't work well when you try using it for the processing layer."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The solution's licensing model is expensive and could be improved."
"The tool requires programming language."
"From a monitoring point of view, MuleSoft Anypoint Platform can improve on tracking transactions. When dealing with multiple transactions or trading, the system can lose control, and tracking becomes hectic."
"Code quality, Code Security, SaaS, and DaaS security, can all be improved."
"The solution is very expensive. They need to work on the pricing."
"MuleSoft's release calendar is rather conventional with two major, two minor releases and hotfixes in between. The competition sometimes offer more rapid release cycles and provides improved and new functionality with a faster time-to-market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."
"Mule Anypoint Platform pricing is slightly higher compared to Dell Boomi."
"Price-wise, it is a good product since it is reasonably priced."
"MuleSoft Anypoint Platform really needs to work on its pricing model because it's very complicated."
"I can't give you a straightforward answer because sometimes it depends on the usage. If you're going to have fewer than 5 million messages, it is free of cost. If you're going to have more than 5 million messages, they're going to charge $100 per month"
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing as four or five out of ten."
"The product's price seems to be competent in comparison to other products in the market."
"Mule Anypoint Platform is affordable."
