MuleSoft Anypoint Platform vs. Vertify

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.

When we first implemented, there were a lot of fields not set up/syncing properly. But by consulting with Vertify, for a lot of hours, we have been able to work through a lot of those errors, and our Account Manager and the tech support people like Markus and Jamie have been very supportive and helpful in getting us up and running properly.

• Provides wide range of popular connectors like salesforce, netsuite, sftp and many more. A user can easily integrate with those services using specific connector.
• Support API development using RAML and desing tool. The platform is very good in data type classification.
• Cloud deployment and post deployment monitoring is easy. A user can configure application worker as per need. Alert and notifications are real time.

• All clients in the CRM are mirrored in the ESP.
• Data points about client interaction are pushed to the email tool.
• Emails can be triggered based off activities that are tracked in the CRM.
• One or two-way syncs can be configured.

• 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.

• I think the UI could get a refresher. It looks a little old-school and I sometimes get lost in the navigation.
• I saw some inconsistencies on the scheduler, most likely caused by time zone differences. One dialogue reflected the user's time zone, the next server's time zone.

There’s a lot of learning curve at the beginning when it comes to building the code and everything. In terms of usability, I’d say once you get used to it, it’s fine — but it’s not very easy during the initial stages.

Creating a mapping between source and target while also using lookups and transformations is not trivial. And VertifyData solved this reasonably well, at least all users in my organization understood it pretty quickly.

It is not the easiest user interface to read/understand. However, once you understand how it works, then using it is not that bad. It's hard to remember what feature is listed under what tab (Manage vs. Define). A suggestion would be to get all call to actions on the same page

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.

I have started with MuleSoft Fundamentals course provided by MuleSoft training at start. This was sufficient to do initial learning and get onboarded. The online documentation with different Runtime versions/deprecated functions and keywords are well documented. The automated solution provided by MuleSoft Anypoint Platform to upgrade 3.0 to 4.0 gave a good head start while learning MuleSoft Anypoint Platform and working altogether with Online training and documentations

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.

We were using Scribe for similar tasks but with different connectors. And it served us well, so absolutely no hard feelings here. But when it came to creating complex workflows, we instantly understood Vertify's approach better. Data lookup and transformation e.g. are pretty easy in Vertify and ease of use was definitely what we were looking for.

• 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.

• Independently, teams are able to carry out their process with less communication and at a higher level of accuracy.
• VertifyData is actively taking into consideration, consulting, and supporting our plans to build out the business
