We are still actively using Mule Anypoint Platform. We also do a competitive analysis to understand how it stacks up against other IPaaS providers like Microsoft and others in the Magic Quadrant or Gartner reports. Players like Dell Boomi, SnapLogic, and Workato are among the new competitors in the IPaaS space that we analyze.

In the current environment, we used to have point-to-point integrations with tools like Talent, but since I've been working at my current company, I'm exclusively working with Mule due to my expertise. 

We checked Boomi but found that Mule Anypoint Platform was better.

When comparing products, the solution wins every time for integration capabilities and API management but falls short for pricing. Demographics play an important role because clients in Asia cannot afford the solution but price is not an issue for clients in the US, Australia, Canada and Europe. The size of a company is also important as the solution is intended for the enterprise or mid-level range. 

The solution is more focused on EDI-based integrations and has a partner that offers an onboarding management tool because many legacy companies are migrating from Sterling Integrator. Perhaps the solution should be marketed more for EDI integrations. 

There are more valid tools for data integration such as Informatica, SSI, and Talend.

We come from IBM Integration Bus background and the decision to adopt Mule was easy after a few engagements with the MuleSoft team.

Mulesoft Anypoint Platform was chosen because of the best combination of functional capabilities, price, and current (and possible future) level of integration with Salesforce.  

We didn't look at other options at the time as the customer wanted this particular solution. We didn't do any comparison shopping. 

We evaluated lots of options. Now, due to the economics of the solution, we are back to evaluating solutions again. We are looking to see if we can switch to something else.

We did evaluate other options. The community around Mule and the platform were big selling points for us. There's a lot of great technical articles that help. We also had several other similar cases, which were already running on Mule.
