Apigee Edge
Apigee has been great when managing the quota based access to the APIs. It is really good and suitable when considering proxying the in-house server endpoints access with the way it provides security with API Key validation and OAuth.

Anypoint Platform
While the Anypoint Platform is a newcomer to API management tools, it still manages to be feature-rich and offers many resources for both API development and deployment needs.Pros:
- Intuitive user interface. It's extremely easy to locate API information and consume analytic information. - Easy to do create new APIs via RAML. - Fast and easy deployments and updates. - Wide range of connectors.
- Customer support can be a bit slow and hard to reach. - Developer Portals for APIs do not allow for much customization. - If you manage a lot of APIs, it is hard to keep track and administer APIs since tables do not let you sort using API request date and other variables.

Pros
Apigee Edge
- Manage user access, we can allow specific access to users based on their need and even customize requests of services based on user requirements.
- Allow branding, so that SFO can maintain its look and feel but still get the support and functionalities we need from Apigee.
- Integrates well with other platforms we use.

Anypoint Platform
- 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
Apigee Edge
- Only one user can be active in a proxy at a time
- No version control
- Prohibited from using JSON.stringify on Apigee objects (tokens)
- Debugging is difficult
- Unable to rename or delete policies without bumping revision
- Why would anyone give a js policy one name, display name something else, and script a different name?
- 'Trace' limited to only 20 transactions
- UI allows users to add target servers, but users must utilize the api to turn on SSL.
- I'm sure there's more, they just aren't coming to mind right now.
- Apigee forgets (expires?) your password at random intervals without notice. Every few weeks, or days, sometimes even three times in one day, I'll attempt to login to Apigee and my password will be 'wrong'. I've reset my password and Apigee still claims it's wrong. I've had to reset my password three times before it finally let me log back in.

- Mulesoft has tons of capabilities however where I see it's lacking is usability, it's tough to set-up Anypoint Studio on local machines. Though flow designer is an alternate to that, however, it has very limited capabilities and it's extremely tough to build integrations there for business users.
- Very expensive and no pay as you go model.

I am not the one deciding whether to use apigee or not really. But personally, I would recommend the use of it as developing APIs on it is easy. And as a mediator between backend servers, we could easily modify request and responses in it without touching any backend code while having a centralize gateway to access our backend APIs too.

Quite hard to get support, at least on the coding side, when we encounter blockers. But general concerns, they would schedule a call to you for them to get a whole picture of your concern. Albeit in my experience, bad really as they haven't replied about the progress, but otherwise seems to have been fixed.

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.

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 open source and java based platform. A user can create proprietary application's connector and easily embed it to existing infrastructure.

Return on Investment
Apigee Edge
- Unruly, difficult to maintain, unable to test, difficult to troubleshoot and debug. Every ticket that requires Apigee work increases stress and anxiety.

Anypoint Platform
- 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.
