We performed a comparison between ActiveMQ and Anypoint MQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Queue (MQ) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ability to store the failed events for some time is valuable."
"The initial setup is straightforward and only takes a few minutes."
"Most people or many people recommended using ActiveMQ on small and medium-scale applications."
"Message broadcasting: There could be a use case sending the same message to all consumers. So as a producer, I broadcast the message to a topic. Then, whichever consumers are subscribed to the topic can consume the same message."
"I'm impressed, I think that Active MQ is great."
"For reliable messaging, the most valuable feature of ActiveMQ for us is ensuring prompt message delivery."
"It’s a JMS broker, so the fact that it can allow for asynchronous communication is valuable."
"ActiveMQ brings the most value to small applications because it will not cost you very much to complete."
"The use of ACK is valuable."
"It's easy to use and comes as a bundle package with the Anypoint Platform, removing the need for any complex setup."
"Initial setup was very straightforward. Deployment is a cakewalk."
"The most valuable feature of Anypoint MQ is it comes with MuleSoft so we don't have to maintain separate components."
"Good interface, simple to use and stable."
"The solution is scalable, and its performance is quite good."
"We use simple queues and exchanges to route messages to multiple queues. The publish/subscribe model is also helpful."
"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 UI. It's both a good thing and a bad thing. The UI is too simple. Sometimes you wanna see the messages coming to the queue, and you have to refresh the dashboard, the console of the product."
"There are some stability issues."
"One potential area would be the complexity of the initial setup."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"Message Management: Better management of the messages. Perhaps persist them, or put in another queue with another life cycle."
"It would be great if it is included as part of the solution, as Kafka is doing. Even though the use case of Kafka is different, If something like data extraction is possible, or if we can experiment with partition tolerance and other such things, that will be great."
"Distributed message processing would be a nice addition."
"It does not scale out well. It ends up being very complex if you have a lot of mirror queues."
"When we are integrating with other applications, readily available connectors make it easy. However, when it comes to external applications, connectivity isn't as straightforward."
"The product does not provide a priority level for the message."
"There are so many solutions like this, but this is not as mature as those products. The other MQ products have the capability of reprocessing and maintaining the persistence of the data. They can handle large volumes and large messages, but Anypoint MQ doesn't have those capabilities."
"Anypoint MQ could improve the user interface."
"It's extremely expensive to change things in Anypoint MQ. There's also this issue of slow output of messages, and that needs to be improved."
"Information on monitoring could be improved."
"The customer service is not good enough"
"Anypoint MQ's capabilities are mainly used for messaging purposes, but it doesn't have typical use cases that extend as far as other Message Queue software."
