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."The core is very stable."
"The process-oriented solution allows you to define choreography and orchestration."
"OpenESB pushes the organization to clearly define service boundaries and interfaces. So it motives the business and the development teams to clearly define their business services and processes they want to implement. OpenESB supports fine and coarse-grain granularity for the services and supports top-down and bottom-up approaches for the services, processes definition, and composition."
"One of the most valuable features is being able to implement business processes while keeping track of the design from BPMN to a BPEL Implementation."
"What I like about Red Hat Fuse is that it's a well-established integration software. I find all aspects of the tool positive."
"The process workflow, where we can orchestrate and design the application by defining different routes, is really useful."
"The initial setup process is quite straightforward."
"Red Hat Fuse's best features are that it's very easy to set up and maintain."
"With a premium, one can get support 24 hours."
"This solution's adaptability to our use case has helped us integrate our systems seamlessly."
"The stability has been good."
"The solution is stable. We have gone for months or years without any issue. There are no memory restarts, so from my point of view, it's very stable."
"The documentation needs to be better."
"Cloud deployment is weak and needs to be improved."
"Regarding its management, a web console being able to synchronize distributed instances would be great."
"The documentation of the product must be improved. It could be tricky to find the right documentation on a topic since the documentation is spread in many places. I advise the new joiner to contact the community to get entry points and additional documentation. Tutorial and Video must be present to take up the product."
"Currently, the main point of concern for us is how flexible it is to cater to different requirements. It should be more flexible."
"Our clients would like to see the user interface improved so that it is more user-friendly."
"It might help if, in the documentation, there were a comments section or some kind of community input. I might read a page of documentation and not fully understand everything, or it might not quite answer the question I had. If there were a section associated with it where people could discuss the same topic, that might be helpful because somebody else might have already asked the question that I had."
"What needs to be improved in Red Hat Fuse is on the development side because when you use it for development purposes, it lacks a user interface compared to what MuleSoft has, so it's a bit difficult for users."
"My company doesn't have any experience with other messaging tools, so it's difficult to mention what areas could be improved in Red Hat Fuse, but it could be pricing because I find it expensive."
"There is definitely a bit of a learning curve."
"The web tools need to be updated."
"The stability of the solution is an area with a shortcoming that needs to be improved."
