We performed a comparison between IBM API Connect and Oracle Integration Cloud Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I have found the API Management to be most valuable."
"I have found IBM API Connect to be highly secure, efficient, easy to deploy, and has a great GUI. It can operate and integrate well with other vendors, such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft."
"Easy to configure security and generate API keys."
"In-built policies and security functions."
"It's quite flexible and easy to deploy, especially for beginners. It has almost all the features that an API gateway should have."
"IBM API Connect is a good product, and their technical support is excellent."
"It has all of the tools that are needed for the specific mission."
"It is quite stable. We've not had any problem. It has made for a good buy because we are finding that other companies that have similar set ups go down maybe once a month."
"OIC's accuracy is quite good."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of customization."
"Oracle Integration Cloud Service integrates well and is user-friendly. If you are not a developer or ops engineer you can still use the solution with ease. You do not need to have developers' knowledge, you can easily adapt and learn quickly to integrate the services. They have good documentation."
"I particularly like the drag-and-drop feature for designing integrations and processes."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is its ease of use. We do not depend on any tool to develop it. Everything is on the browser and is easy to integrate, even for someone who does not understand a lot about coding."
"The solution is scalable."
"It's very easy to get started on the solution. It's also easy to maintain, scale, and integrate according to cost factors."
"The new version is very unstable."
"Due to bugs in integration, we have to look for workaround on fixing and using DataPower as gateway."
"Like any typical IBM infrastructure setup, you need to learn to set it up yourself. It's not one of those simple zip files or an archive unzip and you're up and running in some few minutes. Knowledge to set it up is key."
"Firstly, the pricing model, when compared to other open sources, is high. Secondly, the availability of resources in the market, specifically the developers available in the market, is not so much."
"The implementation of IBM API Connect is complex, as it's an enterprise solution with many components that require more than one person. It's not a single product that you work on, and this is an area for improvement, but normally, it's good. Having a more structured model for IBM API Connect support is also room for improvement that would help customers better."
"The administration of the user interface and the technical documentation are areas of concern in the solution where improvements are required."
"It should be cheaper."
"Extracting the data could be improved."
"The solution doesn't currently have a fully fledged workflow feature like they have in OIM."
"The support and resources were lacking — they weren't there."
"Now the platform is not built in a way that you can define."
"Configurable timeouts on each connection would be good."
"The logging capabilities could be enhanced. Currently, logs are only retained for a few days, which can be inconvenient for administrators. Ideally, we'd like the option to configure log retention periods, like a month or fifteen days, instead of the current one-week limit."
"Lacks features for more complex integrations."
"Make it more similar to the on-premises features. For example, if you can edit the code directly rather than just dragging and dropping, or if you can edit the examples by going into the background, and one-click migration, I'd like to see included in the next release."
"The bulk processing needs improvement."
