  ### 13. Great integration platform, now with Salesforce pricing strategies

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Banking | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2022

**What do you like best about MuleSoft Anypoint Platform?**

From the integration architecture perspective, MuleSoft Anypoint represents clearly what you could expect from an ESB with the right platform capabilities to create APIs stacks the "right way" by following best practices.

**What do you dislike about MuleSoft Anypoint Platform?**

The first downside is the obvious commercial fact: MuleSoft is now owned by Salesforce. And by the side effect of being part of that group, the licensing costs and contract renewal mechanics have turned in the direction of how Mule's parent company does business. In other words, expect to pay a premium price for an ESB that, if you think deeply about it, is just another ESB in the market with little added value vs alternatives in the market, unless you start drinking the "Kool-aid" of Salesforce pricing strategy applied to the Mulesoft products. Our integration architecture roadmap was based on Mulesoft products beyond just AnyPoint but when the M&A with Salesforce happened, we had to rethink everything as we already knew how Salesforce licensing model is. Our company will still rely on AnyPoint as an ESB, but for concepts like API Gateway, Brokerage, and Streaming, we're steering towards other alternatives in the market.

**What problems is MuleSoft Anypoint Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Enterprise Service Bus, internal service catalogue, and services orchestrations. Partially event-driven processes, but just with shoehorned tactical strategies that will be replaced for different capabilities in the future.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Afreen F. | Senior Software Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about MuleSoft Anypoint Platform?**

Anypoint Platform provides you with a lot of options to deploy your application on cloudhub. The feature which I like a lot about the anypoint platform is Monitoring. We can monitor all our API after enabling it where we can monitor inbound and outbound requests. We can also monitor the heap memory consumption and processing time for each API.

**What do you dislike about MuleSoft Anypoint Platform?**

Anypoint platform has a design center where we can design our API spec.  So it doesn't allow multiple users to edit the same API spec at the same time which is sometimes a little disturbing and time-consuming. We have to wait for the other person to complete their changes and then we can start our changes.

**What problems is MuleSoft Anypoint Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using the Mulesoft Anypoint Platform to deploy our APIs in the cloud hub. We use the design center to write the API spec and publish it to exchange. We use the mocking example to test the APIs in the exchange.  We use it for monitoring the API request, response , memory and processing. We also use API Manager to configure the API with the security schemes and applying SLA Rate limiting.

  ### 22. MuleSoft Anypoint Platform for Developers & Admins

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anshul B. | Salesforce Developer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**What do you like best about MuleSoft Anypoint Platform?**

Mulesoft has been a great platform. It's admin friendly interface(design center especially). The drag & drop in anypoint studio helps beginners to understand it without messing with RAML syntax.

**What do you dislike about MuleSoft Anypoint Platform?**

The design studio comes with a limited free trial, we no longer will be able to create mule apps once the free trial is over. So it gets really hard to practice when you're a beginner to Mulesoft.

**What problems is MuleSoft Anypoint Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Mulesoft divides the complex integration into simple parts. We no longer have to touch the system & process api's when we're integrating the same platform with few different configurations. Just update the experience according to the platform & we're good to go.

  ### 23. Eclipse revigorated
