Like in other integration tools we need to specify each and every thing manually where as in this based on the location we are placing a palette, it automatically pick up the behavior and do basic thing itself. Dataweave is a powerful functionality we have in Anypoint studio, which is again very smart palette. Above all, availability of multiple connectors.

Review Source AY Abhay Y. Software Engineer Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Anypoint offers ease of use, doing the heavy work of connecting to different services." June 5, 2017 4.0 Pros The drag and drop feature, of course, datasense, data mapping for transformations. Does the heavy work of connecting to different services, allowing programmer to focus on programming things only. Cons Sometimes clicking on message processors don't open properties tab, you need to click on some other and then click back on the processor you want to, it happens especially with transform message. Sometimes the changes are not reflected when deploying, so you have to delete .mule folder from workspace and launch again. Review Source TP Tejas P.

I have used mulesoft in multiple ways till date" July 21, 2017 4.0 Pros Dataweave is the most striking feature of this software. It enables you to transform the data in any format, and also to map the fields with each other using conditional logic. Cons From functioning point of view, it would be great if the unnecessary bugs in the software are reduced. Because sometimes, it gives an error even if there is none. Review Source AS Abhay S. Technology Analyst Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It's amazing how the entire Anypoint Platform is hosted on a public IP." July 31, 2017 5.0 Pros 1) The fact that it is hosted on a public IP, there's no need to have a special VPN to access it. 2) The API Manager. Cons There's not much to dislike, but there license for Runtime shouldn't expire. For the trial license, they should provide just 0.5 VCores, so that at least for personal learning purpose, it can be available all the time. Review Source vkU vikram kumar U.

Used the software for: ### "Top 5 MuleSoft features" March 14, 2017 4.0 I have now completed the MCD - Integration and API associate online course, which was a good starting point to learn how to use some of the key Mule ESB features. One of the benefits of using Mule ESB is that it is a very lightweight and extensible solution that apart from being a free open source version, it also provide a commercial enterprise version which offers additional functionality and support for the product. Within all the benefits that MuleESB can bring to your integration project, I would like to emphasise 5 key features that have cached my eyes. 1 - Very simple ("one click") installation and intuitive, Eclipse-based tooling; 2 - Simple, drag-and-drop graphical design, which makes your life much easier; 3 - Visual data mapping and transformation. No need to go coding for this, as you can do it visually on Mule ESB UI; 4 - Service flow analyser for rapid debugging; 5 - Around 1500 public and ready to use connectors, which again makes your life easier if you need to integrate with any of these extensive list of free ready to use connectors. Other than this, I would also like to mention the MuleSoft Champions concept, where you can learn more MuleSoft skills (without realising it) and add a spicy competition with your colleagues on trying to get Mule coins and step up in the Mule rankings. :) Review Source SM Swetha M. Senior engineer Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Its best open source and helps in connecting many systems" November 24, 2022 5.0 It never crashed or mibehaved. Pros It's a best in improving the system uptime and reduce the downtime and also helps in building API s which can be used again. Cons As it's a open source support is not effective. Review Source AK Aravind K. Software Developer Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "This is one of the most powerful Integration tool with full fledged functionality " May 22, 2017 4.0 Pros I like the API designing and also mocking it as well as you can share through to the developers to know what exactly they have been looking up in the Anypoint Platform with ease of the usage of the site. Easy to use. Create an API is a matter of seconds. Integrate two different systems is never been so easy. Dataweave is very powerful. Cons Not seamless integration with RAML. Some issues probably carried from Eclipse project itself. Mule Domain is cool but a bit limited at the moment Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Data Engineer Insurance Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Good product but way too expensive" September 19, 2018 4.0 Pros If you don’t have an engineering team, this is the way to go on doing ETL. It’s a little bit of the learning curve in the beginning but I think it’s worthwhile. Cons It’s so expensive but I guess you’re paying for the ease of use from the product. Review Source NY Nagaswapna Y. Senior Consultant Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It is very easy to use." May 2, 2017 4.0 Faster work Pros Just drag and drop components feature is wonderful. It reduces most of coding work. It will guide us how to use unknown components. Cons When we have data mapper or data weaves, when we use these in a bigger level, double clicking on datamapper/data weave component is taking much time. It needs more performance.
