"Conceptually, how it integrates a lot of essential enterprise process components. That's the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle SOA Suite is all the platform's capabilities."
"In Oracle SOA Suite some applications are not able to use REST, but it can support both SOAP and REST. You're able to integrate quite a lot of systems, which may not be able to in other solutions.

"If the disk space expansion can be made more flexible, not requiring a database restart, it would be a major benefit."
"Another area of improvement is performance. Because with multiple solutions connecting to the SOA platform, the performance of the SOA platform can be affected in time. So, that could be one area that could be improved with the SOA."
"The interface is too complicated. Making modifications still requires too much technical knowledge."
"An area for improvement in Oracle SOA Suite is the cost. It could be lower."
"The deployment could be made easier by including add-ons like Hudson and Maven."
