Cons

The license is very expensive (for a big organization, it is very recommended to have an Enterprise License)
In a data flow, only one object contains all activities data (input/output)
Sometimes we have to write xml because the graphical designer of flows is not responsive.

Experienced resources will be required to build complex integrations.
It's not perfect to be used as ETL. There are other ETLs in the market which offer better features overall but when it comes to ESB features, Mule is much better.

I have worked with Oracle SOA Suite and I think if you have APIs with most of the integration with databases (majorly Oracle DB) then you should use Oracle SOA Suite instead of Mule. Oracle SOA Suite is most suitable to call most of the DB objects (i.e. procedures , functions, etc.)Dell Boomi is also a good alternative for Mule ESB. It also comes with a vast number of components for rapid API development. Most importantly, It is featured as a leader in Gartner's magical quadrant of LPass tools.

All the Mulesoft API stack offering as worth of money. They have tools to support all the phases of API life cycle. And the best part is most of the essential tools comes with basic license.
Mule ESB is best suited for the organizations which are trying to implement agile methodology. It is also best suited for DevOps environments.
Choosing Mule ESB turns out to be a best decisions for most of our clients and it fulfilled their expectations in a best way.
