"Migrating any existing middleware platform to Mulesoft is difficult because of the transformation, conversion and integration involved. Better tools are needed to achieve quicker time to market."
"I think that they can bring some transparency in reference to the terms of the microservices architecture."
"It is not a very scalable solution."
"We have issues with the tool's pricing. The product seemed to have most of the features required for the tasks I was working on. I didn't feel the need for additional features. However, one aspect that could be improved is making the platform more user-friendly for non-technical users. While it's not necessarily complex, it does require some familiarity. Unlike open-source tools available online, accessing and using this product may not be as straightforward. It needs to offer training to its users."

"The solution's price is high."
"I would like to see MuleSoft expand the range of APIs you can manage with it beyond HTTP, GIPC, and others."
"One improvement is maybe to add a plugin in the API manager. Let's say an organisation is using SOAP services or legacy APIs. Maybe I don't want to migrate it to rest API, but my plugin should be able to convert Jason to XML. Basically, protocol transformation features in API Manager."
"Integration should be improved with our continuation system because we use Azure DevOps separately."
"Integration of the solution towards Bitbucket, BitHub, and CI pipelines is difficult."
"They should provide more specific documentation on configuration."
"They should integrate the solution with one of the CRM solutions."
"Multi-part requests should be handled in the octet-stream."
"I live in Turkey, so for me, the value of dollar currency is high...Postman can change its pricing policy and decrease the prices for Turkey."
"Postman needs more advanced data-driven testing."
"We'd like to see some better UI in newer versions."
