We performed a comparison between Mule Anypoint Platform and Talend Open Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Customers can make use of Runtime Fabric, an RTF environment."
"The community manager is the standout feature of the Mule Anypoint Platform, as it provides a platform to showcase your API to external parties. It is exceptionally user-friendly and enables external parties to easily utilize and consume the APIs."
"It is a stable product...The initial setup was simple."
"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."
"The solution's market place for different kinds of integration platforms is the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is quite easy because the solution has a good interface through which the configuration, mapping, and so on can be done."
"MuleSoft offers with the Anypoint Platform a unified platform for API management and an integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) as well as an on-premise Enterprise Service Bus pattern."
"The exchange and API management features are the best in the market."
"The Talend Studio connected to the Talend MDM (Master Data Management) is the most valuable feature. Talend Studio is used to create a job stream that connects to multiple data sources, matches, compares or creates a golden record for overall identification. It also has a good catalogue of objects that can be dragged and dropped for building models."
"It is user-friendly and the interface is good."
"The data integration aspect of the solution is excellent."
"The API integration and big data approach are very good because of how you extract data from JSP files or big data web repositories like MongoDB."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days."
"A very user friendly solution."
"The product is easy to install and configure. It is one of the best tools for data integration."
"MuleSoft's release calendar is rather conventional with two major, two minor releases and hotfixes in between. The competition sometimes offer more rapid release cycles and provides improved and new functionality with a faster time-to-market."
"There is not much information on the internet...The transforming message is an area in the solution that needs to be improved."
"We would like an entire DevOps in place in this particular solution."
"Its documentation needed a little bit of work to make it more usable. It is a platform that is used mainly by developers and other people for connecting systems. Its documentation was confusing in some areas and was not very helpful in other areas. I had to go to a consultant to get some work done, which ideally shouldn't be required."
"Mule should have better B2B integration."
"Code quality, Code Security, SaaS, and DaaS security, can all be improved."
"The initial setup should be made easy and the documentation should have some guidance."
"It has different types of subscriptions. For platinum or lower subscriptions, there are not too many things that can be done. We don't see many features. They should release a basic version that has logging and monitoring features. These features should come with Mule Anypoint Platform for free instead of making customers pay separately for these features. Its dashboard can be improved to have a lot of charts so that it is easy to visualize information. The utilization part can be improved. The dashboard is good currently, but it can be better. Other solutions like Elastic have a good dashboard, and they allow you to administer the product from the UI. Currently, for RTF, there is a different dashboard or utility. It would be good to include the same utility in the cloud solution. It would be good if there is a centralized repository that includes the links to the information about various troubleshooting issues. The documentation is there currently, and it is good, but the troubleshooting information is too scattered. We have to go to different links to find troubleshooting information. This kind of centralized repository would be helpful for new customers who are implementing this solution. It will be helpful to see different kinds of issues that can occur."
"The security features could be improved."
"The product could be more intuitive."
"We don't get continuous replication of the data."
"There used to be many Youtube channels that offered Talend training, but now there don't seem to be any. The solution should offer more online training resources."
"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The stability of the solution could improve when running jobs. There can be errors when running projects but in the end, it works well and the errors do not impact the result."
"It needs better installation configuration for other databases. Although the installation allows you to select another database, this doesn't mean that all connection points in the application point to the database selected. You actually need to do a search through the entire install to locate the configuration settings and change them."
"The pricing could be lower. They should work to make it more affordable."
