    Considered Both Products

    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 …

    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.

    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.

    We provide options to customers to choose from the best tools. Customers are the decision makers. Personally, because of open-source and large community base, MuleSoft is the repo in the market.

    The community support and the stability of the software are the most important points. In banking business flows, security is also very important, so is it is better to use a proprietary software instead of an open-source solution like MuleSoft Anypoint and others.

    TIBCO is lacking of a centralized placed where the users can upload their "API's", mulesoft is wining here.

    In BusinessWorks it is quite easy to develop applications and monitor where as it is not similar with Scribe. The data which successfully processed in Scribe is quite difficult to view. I think the Scribe console tool should have better view for the data it has processed.At times we founds some of our sales orders are missing which are unable to update/insert in the DB, after investigation found the issue is in Scribe tool. A case has been raised 02129657 for the same and as per the guidelines from the Scribe support engineer we did changes in the shutdown interval to zero. ''update SCRIBEINTERNAL.SCRIBE.KSYNC
    set keyvalue= 0 where KEYNAME = 'SETTINGS.SHUTDOWNINTERVAL''. Later this change we started getting alert emails like ''Fatal error 325 occurred: Message processor shutting down
    - defined maximum memory usage (900MB) exceeded. Please contact Scribe support
    at support@scribesoft.com if this
    problem persists''. We found this issue is a critical one as the occurrences of it is decreased but still it is persist.

    Pros
    Salesforce
    • API Manager provides easy API Policy Governance. You do not have to manage multiple platforms for managing the policies.
    • Supports hybrid Mule EBS environments. You can configure both CouldHub-based and on-premise-based API using Mulesoft API manager in a similar manner.
    • It's very easy to implement API proxy.
    • User friendly UI.
    • Single platform to manage all.

    Cons
    Salesforce
    • 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.

    As mentioned in the previous sections, setup and maintenance is extremely easy. We don't have many issues for which we need support and there is no need for deep technical skills to use Tibco Cloud Integration platform. The solution provides everything we need for our specific use case, being the replication of our Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM data to our on premise database for reporting.

    TIBCO Cloud Integration (including BusinessWorks and Scribe)'s performance of the user interface are not to be complained about. The user interface is swift and is a pleasant user experience. The replication jobs take some time to finish but that is because the number of records to be updated/created on a daily basis is quite big. I did split up the jobs between highrunners (entities with a lot of changes) I update on a daily basis and quite stable entities that I update weekly. That solved my issue of a way to long replication.

    For creating new process, you have lots of palettes to do every develop you need. For created process it is easy to understand even if you have ever seen before it. You can analyze your process in all their detail. User Experience is positive for beginner and expertise people. Just debug mode is still raw, but better in TIBCO BusinessWorks 6.x than TIBCO BusinessWorks 5.x .

    If we don't design the process correctly, it can do lot of damage (like deleting files or data etc.,) and might assume product issue rather than a design flaw. So it is always recommended to do thorough unit testing , QA and a design review even for a small process to avoid major problems.

    • 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.
