We performed a comparison between IBM Integration Bus, IBM WebSphere Message Broker, and Oracle Service Bus based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, MuleSoft, Software AG and others in ESB (Enterprise Service Bus)."This solution is very reliable and it is easy to learn."
"One of the most valuable features is how seamless and easy to use this solution is. This is a fantastic solution and a very measured product."
"It is a stable solution."
"The Cloud Pak for Integration is a useful feature."
"The solution offers good performance and is stable."
"I have found IBM Integration Bus is very useful because it can integrate multiple backend applications."
"Content is easily infiltrated in the eclipse infrastructure."
"The message queue, like, message queue connectors. Then they have a built in connectors for most of the systems, like SAP, oracle database, and this Civil connector is there. Of course, we have this SQL database connector So those built in connectors are there. For the almost most of the systems, we have built in connectors. And second thing is that it is a stateless Integration, so it doesn't maintain a state of the integration. Bus the Stitches Integration makes it very fast."
"It is a scalable solution...The setup is easy."
"Straightforward development and deployment."
"The transactions and message queuing are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The most valuable feature of IBM WebSphere Message Broker is the ability to facilitate communication with legacy systems, offering a multitude of great capabilities. For example, if there is a mainframe system in place with a web service serving as the front end. In that case, the solution enables efficient protocol transformations to convert all request payloads into a format that the legacy systems can accept, rendering the integration and transformation processes seamless and highly effective."
"The documentation, performance, stability and scalability of the tool are valuable."
"It has many interfaces and you can connect to any backend source that has another format, and convert it to the desired format."
"The solution has good integration."
"Performance-wise, this solution is really good."
"It is stable."
"I like the ease of deployment and the ease of implementation."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Service Bus is its time to market. It's excellent."
"Service Bus is good at routing the transformation."
"The ability to master the process in one location."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that you can connect with different applications."
"Supports multiple protocol technologies and web services."
"Monitoring feature that allows tracking of the web's UI development."
"I would like to see more metered rest and API support. IBM is already working on it on Version 11, but it still needs improvement."
"I don't mind the pricing."
"I can't say that there is any improvement I’m looking for. I’m new and haven’t connected with all features. For all drawbacks that were in the old version, I think they have been solved. The scalability needs improvement."
"We have come across many customer complaints about the excessive time it takes for IBM to provide customer and technical support."
"They should add connectors to banking applications and other specific industries."
"IBM Integration Bus isn't particularly user-friendly and has a big learning curve."
"Its integration with Cloud Pak components could be better."
"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."
"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."
"Technical support is very slow and needs to be improved."
"There is some lag in the GUI. There have been some performance issues and maybe it's because of the application data."
"The images and size of the containers are too big and I think that they should be more lightweight."
"It is currently a weighty product."
"Stability and pricing are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"The solution can add container engines such as docker."
"Technical support is good but they could have a better response time."
"There are times when I select components in composite and they do not appear, and I cannot figure out why."
"This solution would benefit from having more cloud-based adapters."
"This solution should work better with RESTful services."
"The pricing of the product could be better. It's a bit high."
"The initial setup is likely complex for many organizations."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
"The inconvenient part about working with this product is that it's very heavy, requiring a lot of people and a lot of resources."
"It's very complex and hard to learn. There's a steep learning curve."
