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."The most valuable feature is that it is clear and easy to learn."
"The integration with other tools is excellent. It integrates well with batch issues."
"The Cloud Pak for Integration is a useful feature."
"It is one of the most stable products which I have seen in the market."
"It has the ability to be deployed without rewriting the code."
"REST API design and development support are useful. Building and exposing APIs using GUI API designer with editor makes implementation a breeze."
"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 biggest advantage of this solution is that it is very easy to learn, and very easy to build applications."
"There are always continuous improvements that are happening."
"We've been pleased with the level of technical support."
"Service Bus is good at routing the transformation."
"The solution is quite stable overall. We haven't witnessed any performance issues so far."
"Overall it is a pretty good solution."
"It is stable."
"This product is not complicated and very easy to learn."
"I am a part of the software developing team and I mainly use this solution for the integrating applications."
"IBM does not support orchestration, which is how they designed it, and other BPM tools in the market support orchestration. If they merged the BPM capability into this product, then it would be a better solution."
"I would like for them to make the training much easier."
"IBM doesn't really have a very strong community surrounding the product. Most of its direct competitors are open source solutions, and those have an excellent and well-developed community around the tech to help users navigate the ins and outs of the product. IBM is lacking in this area."
"The solution needs instruction or guidance."
"The solution needs to simplify its documentation, such as the user and operation manuals, to make them even easier to understand."
"Some of the runtime properties need to be improved because if you want to load certificates as sales security, you have to restart the server."
"Its licensing or subscription model should be improved for more flexible adoption. There should also be more ease of use."
"I would like to be able to build an Integration Bus cluster that is active-active."
"The interface console is very slow. Even in production, we need to increase the RAM or CPU. And even after that, the performance is still not good in production."
"There are some loopholes in service and support."
"The connectivity with the solution is an area that needs to be improved. On occasion, requests are lost due to losing connectivity."
"This solution would benefit from having more cloud-based adapters."
"It's very complex and hard to learn. There's a steep learning curve."
"This solution should work better with RESTful services."
"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
