We performed a comparison between IBM App Connect and WSO2 Enterprise Integrator based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I would say that the most valuable feature is the array of connectors and integration tools."
"When using IBM stacks, IBM App Connect is suitable and integrates well with other IBM products like WebSphere."
"I like the adapters. The adapters help us achieve scalability. If you want to connect to SAP, there's an adapter. Salesforce? There's an adapter. You want to connect to another system? There's likely an adapter for that."
"There is a friendly interface for configuration, and integration is made easy."
"It can handle API conversions with mapping and transformation rules, simplifying the development process."
"The most valuable feature is the security."
"It's a powerful application for collaboration. It has many features for customization and integration."
"It's stable to use, connect with the cloud, and to deploy."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"The stability is excellent."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"IBM App Connect should improve security features."
"One more important point is that if IBM improves its CI/CD capabilities, it will make a big difference. Right now, I have to create my own CI/CD setup from scratch for every client, which is inefficient."
"IBM App Connect is scalable. From the administration side, they need to improve the RBAC model, as well as the clustering of this product. It will be good if we can start up the cluster, via IBM Connect Console. Some other products like MuleSoft, are providing this type of administration. MuleSoft is easy to use and user friendly."
"IBM needs to enhance and have a stronger offering for the event streaming part because this is the future needed for the containerization and the new integration requirement."
"It is not easy to deploy. It requires someone with a high level of knowledge in the solution to deploy it, not just anyone can do it."
"When we do a version upgrade of the system, the platform is kind of complicated."
"The product should improve its support."
"They reply in one or two hours at most, but they could be better."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
"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."
"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."
"The customization can be a bit difficult."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
