"The most attractive and beneficial feature is the ease of development."
"From an improvement perspective, there should be fewer coding challenges for users in Mule ESB."
"Mule ESB is more into the latest REST APIs, not much into the SOAP web services. Developing is all about web services and not easy with Mule."
"It needs more samples. Also, the dependency on Maven should be removed."
"It should have some amount of logging."
"The current version will not be supported for much longer."

"There are some loopholes in service and support."
"This solution should work better with RESTful services."

"An area for improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the roadmap for its product launch. Currently, it's unclear, so Oracle should develop a roadmap for version 12c, so people can see what's coming out of that version of Oracle Service Bus. Cloud hosting is an additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Oracle Service Bus."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"It's very complex and hard to learn. There's a steep learning curve."
"The intermediate version that we are using has stability issues. These stability issues should be resolved, but it seems like TIBCO is not focusing on resolving these issues. The resolution timelines are quite high even for high-priority incidents. Its price should be lower. Its licensing cost is considerably high as compared to other ESBs."
"The stability of their latest version is not on par with their classic version 5.X."
"We'd like to see improvements in product support."
"Our version does not have cloud capabilities."
"If TIBCO could be able to sort the size of their base image in the Container edition, it would be really marvelous. Right now it's around 299 MB. We'd really want it to reduce to a few MBs."
"In the configuration, where we need to customize, it takes more time that we expect it to, ideally."
"I don't like the product's API management platform, as it doesn't offer users enough functionality to help with API lifecycle management, making it a product that is way behind its competitors."
"The initial setup process could be easier."
