Can seamlessly translate protocols and produce fairly quick results

Using the solution was great. It was part of the project that we didn't worry that much about. What I also liked about it was that even though I'm not that technical, I could go in and look at thoughts and events and confirm that the information we were looking for was making it across. I could check at the interface level and lessen the burden on validation within the application. The instrumentation within the solution is important. The ease of implementation is very important. Our partner development team had little trouble dealing with these diverse systems, with JSON on the one hand and SOAP on the other. The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great. The API-led connectivity is great. The reason that we took on the product was that we wanted to learn about it. We wanted to figure out how to use it. A big payoff for this will be in EHR integrations. These systems are all alike, yet they are all different. They all use EPIC, and each installation is a little bit different. It’s a challenge when we go to different hospitals. MuleSoft has made a name for itself in using the integrations.

Has robust data governance capabilities and efficient financial alerting features

The platform's robust data governance capabilities ensure strong compliance with regulatory standards. Our dedicated data governance team is responsible for setting policies and monitoring data access and usage. Additionally, we have a Data Protection Officer (DPO) and an independent InfoSec team that work together to enforce these policies. This multi-layered approach ensures that data governance is effectively managed and compliant with all necessary regulations. It is integrated with SQL and Power BI servers for executive management dashboard reporting. This integration supports comprehensive data analysis and reporting needs, which was a key factor in our decision. The value of using vCenter lies in its comprehensive data infrastructure management. It significantly enhances our reporting, day-to-day decision-making, and analytics capabilities. Integrating SaaS with vCenter adds value by streamlining key functions and improving overall organizational efficiency. The solution can be considered expensive, particularly due to infrastructure, maintenance, and ownership costs. The long-term savings and efficiencies gained from using vCenter can justify the investment for large organizations. However, the high costs might not be justifiable for smaller organizations with less data and fewer resources. Conducting a thorough cost-benefit analysis based on the organization's specific needs and scale is recommended. I rate it an eight.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When we talk about the APIs, there are multiple policies one can apply on APIs, like rate limiting policies, OWASP policies, and OWASP security policies, that can be easily configured in Mule Anypoint Platform."

"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."

"I have found several things most valuable, including its very quick implementation that you can use a lot of out of the box templates, and lastly that it is a very mature product, especially in hybrid integration."

"It's easy to develop APIs."

"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."

"The ability to define multi-tiered APIs and reuse them is a fantastic platform feature."

"The tool's visual features are attractive."

"Good interface, simple to use and stable."

More MuleSoft Anypoint Platform pros

"The platform's robust data governance capabilities ensure strong compliance with regulatory standards."

"The solution is very stable. We haven't faced any issues with glitches or bugs. We haven't had any crashes."

"The technical support is excellent."

"The product offers very good flexibility."

"The tool is reliable, quick, and powerful."

"This is an established product with powerful data analysis and varied options for user entry points."

"If you compare it to SQL, the memory and development times are very quick."

"I am impressed with the tool's ability to customize."

More SAS Data Management pros

Cons

"The tool requires programming language."

"This becomes an expensive solution over time."

"In order to set up a storefront, we currently rely on a third-party solution. It would greatly enhance our operations if this feature was integrated into their existing solution."

"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."

"There is not much information on the internet...The transforming message is an area in the solution that needs to be improved."

"The inclusion of GenAI in the tool can be good since it is an area that is currently unavailable in the solution."

"Although the solution's proxy design and process are good, it faces connecting issues because it lacks data integration."

"The customer service is not good enough"

More MuleSoft Anypoint Platform cons

"I would like the tool to include the ability to automate the modifications of the integrations."

"Very little needs to improve but perhaps a nicer graphic interface and remaining competetive in the growing field of data analytics."

"We find we often have to go back and re-train users when there are changes made to the solution because the changes are not intuitive."

"Integration and cloud migration are areas where we see potential for improvement."

"The solution is quite expensive and hard to install/configure."

"One problem is accessing the data using a solution other than SAS. The SAS data, which we create in the SAS, cannot be accessed by other tools. We can't open those data in other applications. So we need to have that application in place."

"We implemented it a while ago, and we are trying to improve the data delivery performance. We are looking into how to get faster and automated reporting. We would need better designs and workflows."

"With SAS Data Management, you have to purchase an external driver, configure all of the tables for all of the data that you will extract from Salesforce. It's not a straightforward process."

More SAS Data Management cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MuleSoft Anypoint Platform really needs to work on its pricing model because it's very complicated."

"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."

"The product comes complete at one set price including support."

"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"

"Regarding pricing, I believe there could be room for improvement to align with user expectations."

"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 pricing of our solution is highly competitive. While it may not be categorized as exceptionally low, it is certainly more affordable compared to IBM."

"I rate the product price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

More MuleSoft Anypoint Platform pricing and cost advice

"The solution is expensive."

"The tool is a bit expensive."

"The licensing model for vCenter is a perpetual license with yearly payments."

"While it is even free for personal use on the cloud, it can be expensive for desktop installations and enterprise use."
