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
Azure Application Gateway
- Easy integration with Load Balancer and Azure Scale Set to provide a full solution for traffic management.

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
Azure Application Gateway
- The ease of setting up a connection to the on-premises sql server to any of the Azure cloud data solutions. One can easily stand up new virtual machines and then create a separate Application Gateway to work with each of the Azure solutions like Azure Data factory or Azure Machine Learning.
- Also, we can schedule the jobs to be run at a particular time and also on-demand so we would always have the data whenever we will need it.

Anypoint Platform
- 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 don’t like that it's part of the Microsoft brand. In general, I am not a fan of Microsoft products but Azure gets it right.

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
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.

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.
