We performed a comparison between IBM Integration Bus 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."The message queue feature is very valuable."
"It allows us to avoid the need for consumers to understand multiple API protocols and security arrangements, and in some circumstances can reduce the impact of systems being unavailable."
"I consider the solution to be one of the most stable in the market."
"It can be implemented as an enterprise service bus to seamlessly connect all applications within your enterprise."
"The biggest advantage of this solution is that it is very easy to learn, and very easy to build applications."
"The most valuable feature is that it is clear and easy to learn."
"I am into microservices using Java Spring Boot, but if we are using legacy systems, IBM Integration Bus is very good for them. They have their own computational logic called EC12, their own proprietary language. You can do any kind of complex logic and can implement other ESVs that I have seen."
"Promotes the reuse of developed resources to more efficiently consume resources."
"The stability is excellent."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"The installation process is easy."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"Licensing is too high. It is quite expensive."
"Technical support is something that should be better."
"The password settings need improvement."
"Recently, there was a lot of instability when selecting the solution they needed for testing."
"Development toolkit (based on Eclipse) should be improved in terms of responsiveness."
"The version of the technology and current knowledge is a bit outdated."
"It provides all the features that are required for day-to-day work. So far, I haven't seen any major issues that impact our work. I have been told that IBM App Connect Enterprise, which is the next version of IIB, is really good. It is better than IIB, and it gives you more coverage in terms of application integration."
"The performance needs to be enhanced when working with the Toolkit."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"You cannot include the validation of XPath."
