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"
"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."
"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 solution is quite stable overall. We haven't witnessed any performance issues so far."
"We've been pleased with the level of technical support."
"It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."
"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."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"The stability is excellent."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
 

Cons

"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."
"The weak point of OSB is the single point of failure."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"This solution would benefit from having more cloud-based adapters."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"The initial setup is likely complex for many organizations."
"This solution should work better with RESTful services."
"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."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have an unlimited yearly license."
"The pricing is on the higher side."
"I'm not aware of how much Oracle Service Bus costs."
"Oracle Service Bus is a bit expensive"
"The price of this solution is better than the subscription-based Mule ESB."
"This is a very expensive product and the price varies depending on factors such as the number of processors and the number of users. Our licensing fees are approximately $300,000."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"It is a low-cost solution."
