We performed a comparison between IBM WebSphere Message Broker and WSO2 Enterprise Integrator 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."We only use the basic features, but the most valuable one for us is the Publish-subscribe pattern."
"It has many interfaces and you can connect to any backend source that has another format, and convert it to the desired format."
"Message Broker is valuable because most of the applications are using MQ. Even in my current engagement, the few applications which I audit to onboard the bank are using MQ."
"It is a scalable solution...The setup is easy."
"The solution has good integration."
"The documentation, performance, stability and scalability of the tool are valuable."
"Performance-wise, this solution is really good."
"Straightforward development and deployment."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"The productivity is the most valuable feature. It is very easy to write remediations."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The stability is excellent."
"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."
"There is some lag in the GUI. There have been some performance issues and maybe it's because of the application data."
"The user interface is designed mainly for experts, much in the way a BPM or another integration tool is."
"Technical support is very slow and needs to be improved."
"Stability and pricing are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"The images and size of the containers are too big and I think that they should be more lightweight."
"I know that Message Broker was a very tightly copied product with another IBM product, that is, IBM MQ. I would like to have a little bit more decoupling from the IBM MQ because it should not be a prerequisite for IBM WebSphere Message Broker usage."
"It is currently a weighty product."
"Today I probably wouldn't go for Message Broker because of the cost structure, support, and the whole ecosystem around IBM."
"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
