Lightweight and efficient solution
It's very good and lightweight. But, it does not provide web service communication. But it is excellent for internal connections One valuable feature is the messaging broker. If there is a disruption, it restores the messages. And when the application is running, it delivers all the messages. The…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The features that I have found most valuable are that it is very easy to develop. Most of it is graphical, but we also have the option to add any custom call that you need."
"My advice to anyone considering Aurea CX Messenger is just try it; from my experience, it is very easy to deploy, very easy to develop and to implement in production."
"The solution offers excellent stability."
"The solution's stability is excellent; it's one of the best features, and we haven't experienced any bugs or glitches that have affected its performance."
"SDM: User-friendly tool which allows for a seamless approach to performing hotfixes, if required."
"ESB: Provides all kind of possibilities to resolve business needs. A lot of ready to use services plus custom Java services. I used a lot of them all."
"The Messenger Broker is a really good feature."
"Easy to deploy new services."
"The communication between applications is already defined, which means that you don't have to redefine your service infrastructure at the lower level."
"The stability is consistently high, with only one notable issue encountered."
"It has improved the efficiency of development."
"It is stable."
"Overall, the solution is quite good and has lots of great features."
"Overall it is a pretty good solution."
"With Oracle Service Bus, we can connect with different types of systems. Another feature I like the most is the security feature."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring feature, where we can track the web's UI development."
 

Cons

"They should not be frequently upgrading the product version."
"I don't know if the last version has the cloud option, but maybe that could be good. That could be something that is included."
"I would definitely like to see marketing for this product."
"It should include/add more services with the product as per market demand. It should include custom Java services developed by any organization or provide a platform where users/developers can share ideas/custom services, etc."
"Aurea CX Messenger could improve by making better use of the new APIs"
"Another issue, which again, I'm not aware if they already have because we have not updated to the latest version, but all the DevOps features would be nice to have because right now they are using their own deployment features."
"The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services."
"You should not hurry with upgrades without testing the whole product completely."
"There is significant room for improvement in the monitoring capabilities."
"Security needs to be more integrated."
"The main inconvenience is the composition between services; if you have six or seven services you call in the same process, it's very difficult and that's the main issue."
"The main problem could be related to timeout issues. This can happen due to legacy systems that might not allow the use of microservices."
"There are several improvements that could be made to the product. Security needs to be more integrated, there are so many new security techniques on the market that could be integrated."
"Some unknown errors will sometimes happen and the error message isn't clear."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."
"While I have not used the latest versions, resource efficiency could be optimized, considering past experiences"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not so high."
"Much better than Oracle SOA Suite."
"You pay nothing for licensing, because the commercial model is a subscription. Other environments, such as QA and Development, are included in the subscription"
"We have an unlimited yearly license."
"Oracle Service Bus is a bit expensive"
"This is a very expensive product and the price varies depending on factors such as the number of processors and the number of users. Our licensing fees are approximately $300,000."
"The pricing is on the higher side."
"I'm not aware of how much Oracle Service Bus costs."
"The price of this solution is better than the subscription-based Mule ESB."
