Cloud integration has transformed projects and delivers faster, more secure business workflows
In my opinion, the best feature Boomi iPaaS offers is its user interface, which is easy to maintain, has a low cost, and offers low licensing costs, making it very easy to develop any integration. Regarding features, Boomi iPaaS performs best and is more stable. It also has easy support, allowing me to contact the Boomi support vendor team for assistance with atoms, molecules, runtimes, and clusters. Security-wise, it is also more secure, enabling the use of internal OAuth 2.0 tokens and basic authentication for high-level authentication, and I can integrate with third-party services to obtain authentication, with some banking projects in Boomi iPaaS using PayU, Razorpay, and various payment platform authentications. The positive impact of Boomi iPaaS on my organization has been significant, as after adopting it, I received many projects with the help of the Boomi vendor who brought me opportunities for Boomi iPaaS usage. Previously, I used TIBCO, MFT, and WebMethods, which were all very old systems. Boomi iPaaS is cloud-based and continues to update constantly, which has been very useful and led to more business. I can definitely say I see specific positive outcomes after moving to Boomi iPaaS, noting improvements in efficiency, cost savings, and faster project delivery. The connector-based licensing cost is very low compared to other integration tools, and for security purposes, it is helpful. I have observed significant good performance transitioning from old legacy systems to Boomi iPaaS.

Effective data transformation and integration in complex environments with high functionality
Something that could be improved in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is that the problem is not a lack of capability or functionalities. The problem is that it is a very complex environment. To put your hand on this environment is a very demanding task. This is the real problem. The problem is not about the product, but about the complexity to manage, to configure, to decide what to do. I have some experience using SAP R/3. It seems to me something similar. When you have to configure a situation with a client, especially for a client not in an industrial sector, but in a service sector, it is quite usual that you are in trouble for some reason. This is always the story that I found in the implementations I have done. Maybe there are only three or four big problems, in some other cases there are more than that, but this is the situation usually. For WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, not the same, but I must say it is quite often there is a need to put together some pieces and make it work in a coordinated way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The integration landscape has become complex, and having a data strategy with unified data models would make integration easier for any platform, including Boomi."
"The iPaaS functionality is very mature. The browser based IDE is also very mature and stable."
"For integrations, it is one of the best products available."
"It's very user-friendly and designed to be easy to use for the end user."
"Our ROI is more than 100%."
"I can definitely say I see specific positive outcomes after moving to Boomi iPaaS, noting improvements in efficiency, cost savings, and faster project delivery."
"Boomi is a low code or no-code integration platform, which does exactly what it says, and it is fairly easy for a semi-technical user to configure and maintain it."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"It was mostly easy to set up the product."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
"The connectors have been the most impactful features for handling integrations. I can use these connectors when I need specific connectivity with a third party, like a core banking system in BFSI. I don't need to do all the development. I take the specific connector, put in the IP address and password, and it takes care of everything."
 

Cons

"Boomi iPaaS needs better source control. It is not as good as it could be in terms of managing versions and running what-if scenarios."
"It is a costly platform. Its pricing could be better."
"They need to introduce more configurable functions to remove scripting or coding."
"The solution is complex. There's a few items and features that are hard to understand. They should work to simplify the functionality so new users don't struggle."
"Have to create some of our own pre-built connectors."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is not yet exposed to the world as a good product owing to certain shortcomings in the area of marketing where improvements are required."
"The API can use some work to come up to speed with the competition but Dell has plans and is working on resolving that."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."
"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Platinum package is good for licensing, but I’m not sure about the cost and improvements."
"AtomSphere Integration's pricing is competitive, and I would rate it seven out of ten."
"Approximately 20k annually."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The licensing model of Dell Boomi is based on a ‘pay-per-use’ model."
"The pricing is a bit complex. While the entry fee may be lower than other solutions, it could be expensive depending on your usage."
"They do not charge by the number of people using the software (client-server model), but rather they charge based on the number of connections used. This makes it very cost effective."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
