Celigo
Chose Celigo
We demoed some of these other integration options. The learning curve seemed a bit steeper and the offerings less robust, so we did not pursue very far. I cannot speak to the others much. We have not had a reason to stray from Celigo.
Chose Celigo
This is night and day. In my experience, MEC had poor customer support, we had no idea where anything lived and all integrations were hidden. It was impossible for us to find root cause of anything.
Chose Celigo
Celigo works well in the small to medium organisations where the need for integration is tactical to support business operations, when there's no appetite for large investment in the integration space, and when the integration team is minimal or non-existent. Celigo is easy to …
Chose Celigo
Celigo handles errors much much better.
Celigo stores templates all in one place making them much easier to find.
Celigo interacts with your database as you are working allowing you to pull picklist values right from your db

Chose Anypoint Platform
AWS is a very good tool but still evolving and offers a small set of API management features. The main reason why we chose MuleSoft Anypoint Platform API Manager is because it is well suited with the APIs developed in Mule ESB.
Chose Anypoint Platform
Mulesoft is a more modern, flexible, and faster-performing integration suite than traditional providers.
Chose Anypoint Platform
Once we have moved all of our system integration APIs to the MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, we will need to communicate with a wide variety of external systems. All of our business and service logic is stored in the aforementioned core systems. Anypoint Platform (and all of our …
Chose Anypoint Platform
Overall a better experience in pricing negotiation with the Sales team. The breadth of services offered by Mulesoft was really important and the expertise offered by our consulting partner influenced the decision. The overall deployment was completed well within the timelines. …
Chose Anypoint Platform
Once we use [MuleSoft] Anypoint Platform to host all our system integration APIS, we need to exchange data with a lot of different resources. Those listed systems are our main systems that hold all business and logic behind our service. The integration from Anypoint Platform …
Chose Anypoint Platform
We selected Mulesoft for speed of implementation. We did not have the luxury of time and needed a solution that can be learned and implemented within weeks so we can take advantage of newly formed partnerships. The training that was provided to use during our pre-sales and …
Chose Anypoint Platform
We believe Anypoint Platform is best in breed and has features that match nearly any other iPaaS offering. It also allows for accomplishing much more challenging and complex integrations due to the ability to connect to nearly any system, use custom connectors, and embed …
Chose Anypoint Platform
The main problem with this software is the different connector type that is used for different protocols except for a different SAP connector. There is only one connector called SAP. It will be great if there will have a different connectors like idoc, RFC, proxy, etc.
Chose Anypoint Platform
Anypoint has tons of capabilities baked in one platform, and other competitors like Built.io or Workato may not have all those like Anypoint Exchange. However where these products shine are in usability, as it's ridiculously easy to build integrations using Built.io. I was …
Chose Anypoint Platform
Anypoint Platform is really very easy to adopt for application integration. Simple UI and easy data weave language allows user to focus on business portion only. The API management and deployment of application are hassle free. We have selected Anypoint platform because it is …
Chose Anypoint Platform
Dell Boomi is kind of similar in drag and drop implementation. However, it doesn't have as many connectors (shapes in Dell Boomi). Moreover, it also doesn't have deployment stuff on its own.

Informatica is way behind Dell Boomi and Anypoint Platform, but users are still using it …
Chose Anypoint Platform
Compared to Dell Boomi the API management suite of Mulesoft is much mature, however if its only about the integration , then i would always go for Dell Boomi, as there is no infrastructure setup that needs to be done from the developer's end.

APIGEE api management is as good as …
Chose Anypoint Platform
The main reason why we chose Anypoint API Manager is because it is well suited with the APIs developed in Mule ESB. AWS, on the other hand, is a very good tool but still evolving and offers a small set of API management features.
Chose Anypoint Platform
API led architecture focus with a decent API ecosystem for developer collaboration, policy management and declarative implementation. Batch processing, visualization, Anypoint MQ and ObjectStore leave a lot to be explored. Multiple deployment models make it worth considering.
Chose Anypoint Platform
It enables customers to expose their APIs in a very simple and fast way. It can be used by non-expert developers. It is compliant with all major connection and data representation world standard.

Celigo is great for transaction-based integrations (which is most), but not great for when you want to replicate data from one system to a database. For example, if you are trying to get all of your NetSuite data into a Snowflake database. However, if you are trying to get data out of NetSuite and create transactions in another system, it's perfect.

MuleSoft Anypoint Platform is best tool in the market for developing APIs with complex structures communicating with various different types of applications including web applications as well as legacy applications. Also applications including database connectivity for fetching and updating data in the DB tables. I cant think of any scenario which MuleSoft Anypoint Platform could not be used for developing the integrations.

Cons

  • FTP transactions can be slow when using them for a lot of volume

  • Has more features than what we really need so we're paying for more than we use. Sort of like paying for an Abrams tank when all we really need is a Toyota Corolla.
  • Not a value product, tends to be expensive.
  • Takes a while for developers to learn to use Mulesoft Anypoint.

There is a bit of a learning curve, but not bad. Once you get a flow or two under your belt, there will be no stopping you. You will start to see possibilities and ways to apply automation and integration throughout your business. It becomes fun to look for additional ways to save money, time, and improve accuracy

Anypoint Platform support is very responsive. There is also a huge knowledge base and an active online forum where answers to most questions can be found. When needed support engages the engineering group so adequate solutions or workarounds are always provided.

Once we have moved all of our system integration APIs to the MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, we will need to communicate with a wide variety of external systems. All of our business and service logic is stored in the aforementioned core systems. Anypoint Platform (and all of our APIs) makes it easy to connect to various other platforms. In order to link to these many other systems, connectors and/or components are utilized, and they are simple to configure and integrate.

  • Mulesoft can be used to provide an integration platform to a large number of systems like Salesforce, ODBC, JDBC, SAP, Mongo DB, etc.
  • An excellent option to develop microservices and real-time integrations.
  • Not as robust in handling large data volumes, Informatica is better in that respect.
