We performed a comparison between IBM Integration Bus and Oracle Service Bus based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."like the API lead integration, which is more focused, and I also like real-time integration."
"It aligns well with containerized environments, which increases its scalability and high availability."
"Having the solution come from IBM you know you are receiving a product of quality in components and in the services, it is very good."
"The message queue, like, message queue connectors. Then they have a built in connectors for most of the systems, like SAP, oracle database, and this Civil connector is there. Of course, we have this SQL database connector So those built in connectors are there. For the almost most of the systems, we have built in connectors. And second thing is that it is a stateless Integration, so it doesn't maintain a state of the integration. Bus the Stitches Integration makes it very fast."
"The multi-approach and the multi-capabilities are valuable."
"IBM Integration Bus is a very strong tool."
"The cost is pretty cheap, compared to what else is available in the market."
"IBM Integration Bus' most valuable features are its performance, fast and easy development, and easy support."
"Monitoring feature that allows tracking of the web's UI development."
"It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Service Bus is its time to market. It's excellent."
"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 ability to master the process in one location."
"The communication between applications is already defined, which means that you don't have to redefine your service infrastructure at the lower level."
"The stability is consistently high, with only one notable issue encountered."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that you can connect with different applications."
"IBM Integration Bus could be easier to manage, but this is true of all vendors. It doesn't always do what it says on the box."
"I think security should be more simplified."
"I would rate the support from IBM Integration Bus a seven out of ten. They are very helpful but sometimes it takes too long for them to respond."
"We decided to move away from IBM Integration Bus for IT technical refreshments."
"IBM Integration Bus isn't particularly user-friendly and has a big learning curve."
"Performance can be an issue sometimes. The tool occasionally crashes due to memory-related problems. We've reported these issues to IBM, and they are actively working on improving the tooling experience."
"There are a couple of things I want improved, but I think they have already touched upon all those things in the most recent version. I'm not using the most recent version—I use a version older than the most recent—but I'm sure that if I looked into and explored it, I would see more support on the CI/CD and more support for unit testing automation. I've read that they released all these things in the new version of App Connect. Once I explore the new version of this tool, I'll probably have a better idea of suggested improvements."
"We used a third-party vendor, who help us install the solution and it was not easy."
"This solution should work better with RESTful services."
"Security features can be improved to better protect the server."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"The weak point of OSB is the single point of failure."
"There are issues, especially if you want to create some compensation in your service bin."
"The connectivity with the solution is an area that needs to be improved. On occasion, requests are lost due to losing connectivity."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit."
