The Problem with Legacy Platforms like MuleSoft!
High integration dependency
MuleSoft’s integration-first architecture adds complexity, high maintenance, and costly licensing.
Developer dependency for everything
Mule flows, connectors, and policies require specialised developers, slowing onboarding and iteration.
Locked into one vendor
MuleSoft’s closed ecosystem makes it difficult to move APIs, modernize stacks, or go hybrid-cloud.
Not built for API products
No native marketplace or productization layer, limiting discovery, reuse, and monetization.

Why choose DigitalAPI over MuleSoft API Management?
DigitalAPI streamlines API management, removes vendor lock-in, and delivers a unified, AI-ready, multi-gateway platform built for modern enterprises.

API monetization & marketplace
Treat APIs as products with built in monetization features and support for billing, pricing, tiering, and much more all out of the box.

Still Using Legacy Platforms
like MuleSoft? Shift to DigitalAPI Today!
Enterprises relying on legacy iPaaS + API gateways like MuleSoft are stuck with high costs, slow change cycles, and complex integrations. This isn't ideal as modern teams need agility, multi-gateway freedom, and AI-ready APIs, not rigid monolithic platforms.
DigitalAPI solves that by offering a native lightweight Gateway Helix and unifying APIs across all other gateways, repos, and cloud environments into one intelligent platform.
You get instant visibility, automated documentation, governance guardrails, and a developer experience teams actually enjoy. With no lock-in and zero engineering overhead DigitalAPI helps you scale securely while reducing operational cost by 40–60%.
