We performed a comparison between IBM Integration Bus and JBoss ESB based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, MuleSoft, Software AG and others in Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)."We can have multiple endpoints, and we can integrate different applications from different platforms. In a large-scale enterprise setup, it becomes so easy to establish communication between applications. You can connect an application to other applications, other legacy applications, and databases. You can also connect with those applications that are in the cloud. You can connect with other well-known applications, such as Salesforce, SAP, and Workday, by using IBM Integration Bus."
"The biggest advantage of this solution is that it is very easy to learn, and very easy to build applications."
"What I like best are the monitoring features."
"IBM Integration Bus is flexible, easy to use, and easy to configure."
"I recommend it for large enterprises but only for specific use cases. You need to have a relatively mature integration practice in your organization to leverage its capabilities fully."
"The solution offers good performance and is stable."
"Seamlessly integrates your different applications."
"The Cloud Pak for Integration is a useful feature."
"The solution is very easy to use. I can download the trial version and just give it a go."
"Technical support is something that should be better."
"Some of the runtime properties need to be improved because if you want to load certificates as sales security, you have to restart the server."
"I think security should be more simplified."
"IBM Integration Bus can improve JSON Schema validations. We don't have any kind of nodes that can support that kind of validation. If we want to containerize it by means of the docker's containers in the clouds, we are not able to manage it very well."
"To scale virtically, is difficult."
"Session management can sometimes hand forcing server reboots."
"Migrating to this solution is complex and it would be helpful if they had a way to convert existing integrations."
"The solution needs instruction or guidance."
"The EPA, from what I understand, lacks a lot of features and it doesn't really know how to interface with legacy systems or how to develop APIs for legacy systems."
