"The product is very user-friendly."
"MuleSoft offers with the Anypoint Platform a unified platform for API management and an integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) as well as an on-premise Enterprise Service Bus pattern."
"Whenever we need some support in our local language, we get it easily. They also have an office in Germany and if a person is unable to contact them by phone, they can go to the office in person."
"It is very easy to use for building connectors. It comes with a lot of connectors. For example, it has different adapters for NetSuite, which are very easy to use. It also has Salesforce connectors. The object store feature is also really easy to use. Mule Anypoint Platform is also good in terms of performance and how it is managed behind the scenes."
"The initial setup is quite easy because the solution has a good interface through which the configuration, mapping, and so on can be done."
"The most valuable features of the Mule Anypoint Platform are the Flex Gateway, API management, easy-to-use, and connectors. Additionally, they are coming out with improvements to the solution when required."
"Overall, it is a pretty good product. It is also very scalable."
"It's a good tool. It has the ability to take apart and install whatever we need. It's very good for data, transformation, and loading."
"It has got so many connectors. It is intuitive and easy to use."
"The best thing I have found with Talend Open Studio is their major support for the lookups."
"The solution's technical support is responsive and helpful."
"The API integration and big data approach are very good because of how you extract data from JSP files or big data web repositories like MongoDB."
"The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days."
"This is a user-friendly solution that is easy to use."
"The standout feature for me is the user-friendly nature of the components."
"Mule Anypoint Platform could improve by having better integration with MDM. There are challenges when doing the interaction at this time."
"The platform's data integration tools need improvement on the processing side."
"We would like an entire DevOps in place in this particular solution."
"The terms of use and how it's priced has become very difficult to manage, which is forcing us to look for alternatives already - and we haven't even been using it for that long just yet."
"This becomes an expensive solution over time."
"Its documentation needed a little bit of work to make it more usable. It is a platform that is used mainly by developers and other people for connecting systems. Its documentation was confusing in some areas and was not very helpful in other areas. I had to go to a consultant to get some work done, which ideally shouldn't be required."
"Although the solution's proxy design and process are good, it faces connecting issues because it lacks data integration."
"Better documentation, in particular with respect to the initial setup, would be helpful."
"The product could be more intuitive."
"I would say that writing to JSON is kind of a pain. It reads from a JSON file pretty well, but writing to a JSON file is not so great because its components are not good."
"I think my biggest problem with the tool is that the errors are very hard to debug."
"In terms of what can be improved, the scheduling is not there in the sister version, while it is there in the cloud one, which is a paid version. If all kinds of scheduling could be available on the Open Studio that we generally use and practice on, that would be great. The scheduling of the data migration is currently not available in the sister version of Talend Open Studio that we are working on. It is available in the advanced version of the Talend. This is the one thing that can be improvised."
"The stability of the solution could improve when running jobs. There can be errors when running projects but in the end, it works well and the errors do not impact the result."
"Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement."
"Technical support and customer service need to be improved."
"It gets the job done but it's a bit slow."
