Featured Reviews

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.
Ilir Lazaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Consolidated, reliable, and has responsive technical support
There is a minor need to improve the ease of configuration. The configuration of the product is not an easy task for everyone. I agree that it has to be that way, as it's a good technology, however, maybe for people with low experience it can be hard. There can be a higher learning curve. The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution. I'd like to see the possibility of configuring the product via consoles with more elasticity without having the need to go to the single files in the file system, add the files manually, and then restarting. We'd like to make some changes, some tuning of the product, using the administration console. If this is extended to the console, it would be great. We need more operations done by the console. It simplifies the life of the worker.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"API management and defining varying protocols are the most valuable features"
"The routing and aggregation are the most valuable features. It's split and join."
"Service Bus is good at routing the transformation."
"What I like most about Oracle Service Bus is that you can use it for many integrations. For example, you can use it for on-premises to on-premises integrations, on-premises to cloud integrations, and cloud to on-premises integrations."
"Overall it is a pretty good solution."
"The most valuable feature is the adapters."
"It has improved the efficiency of development."
"The solution is quite stable overall. We haven't witnessed any performance issues so far."
"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
 

Cons

"Security needs to be more integrated."
"The connectivity with the solution is an area that needs to be improved. On occasion, requests are lost due to losing connectivity."
"There are issues, especially if you want to create some compensation in your service bin."
"What needs improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the connectivity between adapters such as the Salesforce adapter and database adapters. The limited number of adapters compatible with Oracle Service Bus makes you want to switch to a different solution."
"Security features can be improved to better protect the server."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"The error-handling capability can be improved"
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"The customization can be a bit difficult."
"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
