Great iPaaS solution
We have multiple clients who use Anypoint Platform with various levels of entitlements; from simple Runtime Manager to API Manager and Anypoint Monitoring. Each client we have implemented this with has had a successful experience and it has helped integrate disparate systems immensely. With Anypoint Platform, clients can create reusable and discoverable assets while connecting just about any application in their existing software ecosystem.
- Reusability
- Discoverability
- Flexibility
- With the maturity of the platform, cost is increasing so it's starting to price out some small to medium size customers.

- We are able to easily automate many manual client processes which save many client hours and human error.
We believe Anypoint Platform is best in breed and has features that match nearly any other iPaaS offering. It also allows for accomplishing much more challenging and complex integrations due to the ability to connect to nearly any system, use custom connectors, and embed scripting and java when needed.

Anypoint Platform - The New-Age Tool
Anypoint Platform is the next-gen tool that markets micro-service framework and is our go-to platform. It's being used across the Integration Team to move the existing integrations to Mule. The idea of micro-service which doesn't hamper the other services running is the major win for Anypoint.
- Hybrid integration platform.
- Integrating data from both legacy and SaaS systems, such as SAS, Salesforce, JDE and more.
- High availability and scalability.
- Ability to develop custom functions and logic with minimal system modifications.
- Monitoring: There is huge way the organization can increase in monitoring, the Anypoint monitoring dashboard is just ok!
- Documentation is way behind, there are only minimal knowledge base articles.
- Support: The support system can be more pro-active.
- Cost.

- 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.
The main problem with this software is the different connector type that is used for different protocols except for a different SAP connector. There is only one connector called SAP. It will be great if there will have a different connectors like idoc, RFC, proxy, etc.

Great, but not very cheap of user-friendly
We use Anypoint Platform to design Mulesoft based integration which works like backend for API implementation. This integration varies from Salesforce based integrations, Workday based integrations, and applications that need large scale data transformation capabilities. Anypoint platform has various tools like Anypoint flow designer which our business users use to build integrations.
- Support for the full API lifecycle.
- A single place to do everything from building API spec, integration, connecting integration with API spec in the form of API implementation.
- Monitoring and visualization.
- 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.

- If you are a big size organization that heavily uses API's and SaaS-based integration, Anypoint platform is great. However, if your API implementations are not in Mulesoft, hosting just API specs is not worth it in terms of ROI.
- Mulesoft uses propitiatory language which makes it difficult to write custom code when required, some other iPaaS platforms like Webmethods.io uses nodeJS which makes it easier to write custom code. In short, when you need to write custom code, building and supporting is a challenge.
Anypoint has tons of capabilities baked in one platform, and other competitors like Built.io or Workato may not have all those like Anypoint Exchange. However where these products shine are in usability, as it's ridiculously easy to build integrations using Built.io. I was involved in an assignment to build Salesforce-based integration, it took over 3 weeks to build an integration using Mulesoft which includes learning Mulesoft. It took 2 days to build the same integration using Buit.io & that too without even knowing the platform.
Mulesoft is a leader in terms of connectors, you get almost everything in Mulesoft which is not the case with other vendors. So it's ideal to choose the product based on need.

Best integration platform for connecting SaaS services
I'm using Anypoint Platform for one of our US-based clients. The client was looking for a solution to integrate different systems of stock market business. They wanted the solution in microservice or API fashion and Anypoint Platform is a leader in API led connectivity. The Anypoint platform provide rich set of functionality like API manager, deployment strategies, and API policies. A user can create API using RAML specification in the design center and implement those APIs in the flow designer. The deployment of applications is fast and multi worker based. As per the client requirements, we have created multiple microservice/APIs using RAML and published those in Anypoint exchange.
- 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.
- Anypoint Platform needs to improve the deployment strategy. Currently, it doesn't offer the deployment rollback to the previous version.
- Resolving metadata takes time.
- The license cost is a bit high for mid-scale companies.

- Very expensive Enterprise Licence cost.
- Time saver as it is very fast in data transformation and prototyping the services.
- A large number of connectors are available.
- Dell Boomi and Pentaho
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.
