Enables swift integration and automation for seamless order-to-cash processes
Boomi iPaaS offers different modules based on customer use cases, which I find valuable. The integrations and API management are particularly beneficial. The setup process is straightforward, and within three days, you can start working on Boomi iPaaS. It provides automation for everything from order to cash, which is thoroughly documented, tracked, and streamlined within Boomi iPaaS. Additionally, Boomi aids initiatives involving AI by allowing prompts to create integrations and automatically generating documentation.

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

"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"Boomi iPaaS has significantly impacted our ROI. We have automated complete order-to-cash processes for multiple customers, saving over 90 million dollars."
"The product's integration features are quite rich and low code. It is easy to use."
"The solution has a lot of connectors, which is quite helpful."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The best features are that it is a cloud-based and a multi-tenant tool."
"Low-code development is the most valuable feature."
"I really appreciate the on-the-go access through the browser and the B2B integration."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The productivity is the most valuable feature. It is very easy to write remediations."
"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"The stability is excellent."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
 

Cons

"The most valuable features of Boomi are the integration capabilities, the Data Hub product, and the UDI integration."
"The API can use some work to come up to speed with the competition but Dell has plans and is working on resolving that."
"Lots of enhancements are needed in the API portal so that the developers can view the definitions, try out the APIs, etc."
"There should be more scripting possibilities."
"Although Boomi iPaaS is top in the market, there might be room for improvement in the ETL aspect, which was recently integrated as another module. This aspect of Boomi iPaaS is not mature enough at the moment."
"It crashes if we run high-volume integration."
"There are very few string handling functions and few mathematical functions are available."
"It is a costly platform. Its pricing could be better."
"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"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."
"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."
"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."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 is a bit complex. While the entry fee may be lower than other solutions, it could be expensive depending on your usage."
"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."
"The pricing is not reasonable at all. It's very high."
"There could be an easy-to-understand licensing model."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"The licensing model of Dell Boomi is based on a ‘pay-per-use’ model."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"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 pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
