We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"There were no concerns with the stability. This product is very good from a stability perspective."

More Actian Pervasive Data Integrator [EOL] Pros →

"This tool has exceptional API management and integration connectors in addition to multiple out of the box connectors.""The transformation and the data format are the features that I like the most.""Everything runs in Java, which is a useful feature.""I'm not using ESB directly. It is the integration layer, so it's running under the hood. However, the conversion and transformation performance is excellent. Anypoint Enterprise Security is also solid.""The product offers a community edition that is free of cost.""The most valuable feature is that it's programmer-friendly, so it's very easy to develop APIs.""We can use Java expressions anywhere in the flow.""The setup is straightforward."

Cons
"I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME)."

More Actian Pervasive Data Integrator [EOL] Cons →

"One area that could be improved is the way that policies are propagated when APIs are moved from one environment to another. It's an issue, but when you develop and test the rest APIs in a lower environment and need to move them, there's a propagation process. This process moves certain aspects of the APIs, like the basic features. But when we move them, the policies don't always move with them. The policies should be able to move so we don't have to redo them manually. There are some APIs we use, but it's a bit tedious.""There are some issues with both stability and scalability.""Mule ESB isn't as secure as IBM. Financial companies go with IBM for that reason.""I would like to see support for BPM in the next release of this solution.""The initial setup could be more straightforward.""The price of Mule ESB could improve.""Mule ESB could be more user-friendly. I think users must learn about the architecture before they start coding. The price could be better. In the next release, I would like to see an EDIFACT integration.""Documentation is cryptic, product releases are far too frequent, and upgrades become troublesome."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "This is expensive. In my next project, we had to go to other vendor."
  • "Plan your licensing model (cloud or on-premises or hybrid) that will allow seamless integration with new partners."
  • "The various features and components for this solution are no longer free."
  • "The licensing is yearly, and there are additional fees for services."
  • "This product is cheaper than some offered by other vendors, although there is a problem because you have to pay for some third-party adapters."
  • "Most of the challenges that I had with this solution were for smaller customers. There is not a good licensing model or pricing model. It is more expensive than other solutions, and that's the downside of MuleSoft. I had to be creative to be able to sell it to the business, but we did. This is something they have to work on because for large companies, it's affordable, but for small and medium businesses, it's very hard to sell."
  • "This product is expensive, but it does offer value for money."
  • "I think the price is very high. If you use TIBCO BW, the license is for the CPU usage, then the IPS, and support. I also think the license for the product is a one-time expense."
