We performed a comparison between Oracle Service Bus and webMethods Integration Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the adapters."
"This product is not complicated and very easy to learn."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that you can connect with different applications."
"What I like most about Oracle Service Bus is that you can use it for many integrations. For example, you can use it for on-premises to on-premises integrations, on-premises to cloud integrations, and cloud to on-premises integrations."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Service Bus is its time to market. It's excellent."
"Overall it is a pretty good solution."
"Service Bus is good at routing the transformation."
"It is stable."
"It's a visual tool, so our transformations can be quickly implemented without a lot of fuss. The fact that we have an easy way to expose REST services is also very interesting. It offers the possibility to connect over GMS to synchronize message brokers."
"Application integrations are offered out-of-the-box, and that is extremely important to us. This is one of the main use cases that we have for it. It is about 60 to 70 percent of the workload in our application today."
"I would say the core Web-based integrations work the best. They are the most efficient and robust implementations one can do with webMethods."
"The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you."
"We needed a tool that was able to orchestrate and help us configure our APIs so that we could maintain and see the heartbeat, traffic, trends, etc."
"A product with good API and EDI components."
"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."
"From a user perspective, the feature which I like the most about Integration Server is its designer."
"Security needs to be more integrated."
"There are issues, especially if you want to create some compensation in your service bin."
"Lacks sufficient cloud compatibility."
"The connectivity with the solution is an area that needs to be improved. On occasion, requests are lost due to losing connectivity."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"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."
"Security features can be improved to better protect the server."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
"We need more dashboards and reporting engines that can provide detailed information for management. In short, we need better analytics."
"webMethods Integration Server needs to add more adapters."
"In terms of improvement, it would be better if it adapted quicker to open standards. It took a while for API specification before the last version was available. The spec of version two was rather quick."
"The initial setup of the webMethods Integration Server is not easy but it gets easier once you know it. It is tiresome but not difficult."
"The price should be reduced to make it more affordable."
"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."
"Support is expensive."
