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.

  • API Manager provides easy API Policy Governance. You do not have to manage multiple platforms for managing the policies.

  • It's very easy to implement API proxy.
  • User friendly UI.
  • Single platform to manage all.

  • 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.

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.

ConnectPlaza Screenshots

Screenshot of Constructor is one of a the four products of ConnectPlaza® Studio to create and distribute 'Non standard' Connectivity' with simple mouse-click configuration.

The constructor (development environment) is designed to simplify integration and help you to build all the functionality you need, from a drag-and-drop standpoint. Essentially everyone can use Constructor, since there is no coding required to use our standard building blocks and our Out-of-the-Box components.

The constructor is created in such a way that everyone, even if they have no experience in integration, can connect their data! ConnectPlaza® allows all types of integration combinations: Cloud, SaaS or On-Premise applications. We offer your workforce a complete integration lifecycle from construction to deployment.Screenshot of Deploy is where you perform a one-click-deployment of all your flows to your runtime environment. We employ unique technology that allows our customers to deploy their integration solution anywhere they could ever want and control their deployment directly from the cloud. The ConnectPlaza® agent is flexible and lightweight and can be installed virtually anywhere.

Through a special and secure connection these Agents can be controlled remotely and deployment is managed from the cloud, avoiding the need for direct access to hosting platforms and performing technical operations to make things work correctly. So once you build something, you can deploy it anywhere.Screenshot of Would you like to review and trace all messages and data transactions in one single view?

ConnectPlaza Analyze is a unique and unparalleled analysis tool, which gives you extremely detailed insight in critical business data transactions.

It allows you to deep dive into the individual messages and inspect their contents and properties in a way you’ve never seen before. 

And, perhaps most importantly, none of your data will be stored anywhere in the iPaaS Cloud, making our product and your environment GDPR compliant.Screenshot of With Control we deliver technical monitoring capabilities for your complete ConnectPlaza® run-time environment. Pro-active support is possible by checking metrics and notifications of the Agent. You can set thresholds on queue sizes, number of messages per component, etc. When installed a default configuration based on your environment is created. You can modify these settings, like alerting, message notification, error handling, events, latency, etc. in the Control environment in ConnectPlaza® Studio.Screenshot of A little preview of our Producer componentsScreenshot of A little preview of our Services components
