"It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."
"I am a part of the software developing team and I mainly use this solution for the integrating applications."
"Its ease of use is valuable. It's very easy to use. It's no code/low code. Oracle Middleware products are also rich in adapters."
"The stability is consistently high, with only one notable issue encountered."
"It is lightweight and one can easily integrate with different applications, databases, JMS, or web services through different protocols."

"What needs improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the connectivity between adapters such as the Salesforce adapter and database adapters. The limited number of adapters compatible with Oracle Service Bus makes you want to switch to a different solution."
"The connectivity with the solution is an area that needs to be improved. On occasion, requests are lost due to losing connectivity."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"The interface console is very slow. Even in production, we need to increase the RAM or CPU. And even after that, the performance is still not good in production."
"There are issues, especially if you want to create some compensation in your service bin."
"Lacks sufficient cloud compatibility."
"This solution would benefit from having more cloud-based adapters."
"The initial setup is likely complex for many organizations."
