Has required significant improvements due to limited features but offers simple implementation and good support
Boomi AtomSphere API Management has very few features. If you ask me to name the top two, I would say MuleSoft and Apigee, as it depends on the customer-to-customer use cases. After those, WSO2, Kong, and whether you say Informatica API Manager or Boomi AtomSphere API Management, they stand with only three out of ten features which are essential for API management. All the features that Apigee has, they need to add. All the features that MuleSoft has, they need to add. It is not a simple task. The problem is that they lack features. It is not their performance. There are many features to mention. When you take and compare all the features that Apigee has and all the features that MuleSoft has, they need to implement those features.

Centralized traffic control has improved monitoring and simplified our Kubernetes API management
Gloo Platform features include Kubernetes-native API gateways, routing control, API routing, and seamless integration with various environments. It supports multi-clusters and hybrid cloud deployments, which are the most valuable features for Gloo Platform. Our requirements in our organization are fully satisfied by these features, so we really appreciate using Gloo Platform. Since I have been using Gloo Platform, I have noticed benefits from implementing API Gateway capabilities and controlling traffic routing. I can say that we are saving time, especially regarding control traffic routing, data monitoring, and improving observability of Kubernetes applications. These are the most valuable assets for our organization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product's stability is good."
"AtomSphere is tightly integrated into the Boomi iPaaS platform. And Boomi has been augmenting AtomSphere API Management for the past couple of years so version 2.0 is better than 1.0."
"We can develop almost any interface that we need."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"The user interface, which we use to create the integration, basically has the data structures collected, is pretty easy to navigate, is a drag and drop style of working, and there is very little code required so the creation of the endpoints is very simple."
"Integration is straightforward. There is no issue with it."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service."
"We can create APIs straightforwardly and quickly and build jobs for data migration."
"You don't need many frameworks or other things to run Glue."
"Organizations are highly recommended to use Gloo Platform because it will have a great impact on their organization."
"Gloo Platform's features are optimal for my use case because I have numerous applications and microservices running, requiring rate limiting and traffic management integrated into one platform, which proves very beneficial."
 

Cons

"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
"To some degree, you need to know what type or amount of API you are creating - whether it's a rest API or web service API. You need to know ETL in order to really get the most out of Boomi."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management."
"The product is really complex to manage."
"Overall, I would rate AtomSphere lower than solutions like APG or API Connect."
"The API management has room for improvement."
"The solution must provide more AI services."
"It's difficult to integrate the on-prem application with the Dell Boomi Cloud. We have to check to ensure the Dell domain engine is running. It just requires some service endpoints from our on-prem application to connect to Dell Boomi Cloud to make it available to integrate. It would be better if AtomSphere API Management were offered as a purely SaaS application, so I wouldn't need an on-prem component to make it available. We could make a test call or provide some connection parameters. That should enable it to pull the data."
"I sometimes face issues with integration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
