We performed a comparison between Boomi AtomSphere Integration and IBM API Connect based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The platform is user-friendly."
"The best features are that it is a cloud-based and a multi-tenant tool."
"Low-code development is the most valuable feature."
"Extremely flexible for any kind of integration between systems."
"It's very user-friendly and designed to be easy to use for the end user."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its monitoring part to debug certain issues and find problems."
"The product's integration features are quite rich and low code. It is easy to use."
"I like the tool's optimization feature."
"It is easy to use and stable."
"It gives a holistic environment for us to set up the APIs and that's the main value that it adds. It gives end to end for us."
"Publishers can easily identify, create, and publish APIs on the developer portal, defining plans, packages, and potentially billing rules."
"The most valuable features are stability and security."
"The management of the API and API portal is good."
"IBM API Connect is a reliable and scalable solution."
"The support is good and active. I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"API Connect's most valuable feature is its ability to act as a gateway. It's very easy to configure security and everything else in it. You don't have to kill yourself implementing custom configurations."
"We encountered stability issues occasionally, one to two times a year."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"The deployment was simple, but the implementation is missing a lot of capabilities."
"There is no validation in the mapping profile custom scripting, such as IntelliSense or advanced error checking."
"There are more mature (dedicated) API management and master data management (MDM) solutions available in the market."
"In my experience, I haven't encountered any major issues with the tool. However, there could be a learning curve for new users, especially depending on which tool you're using. For example, I've used MuleSoft in the past, which is more code-oriented and requires knowledge of Java. Transitioning to Boomi AtomSphere Integration took me a couple of months because of differences in terminology."
"They should create a custom connector option. With this, they could improve where the user can create the connector, based on their usage."
"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see support for non-Java based services. We struggle a bit to be able to deploy and connect our .NET services because of things like data types. We had to map a couple of things. For one solution provider, we had to move them to .NET Core before we could use it properly. I would like to see more agnostic tool service platforms rather than moving it more towards Java or open source."
"Documentation for the CLI is not very complete. Also, the support could be improved, and we have had several problems with backing up and restoring the product."
"Automation for our Domino applications could be improved."
"Our main pain points are in these two areas: creating a better developer portal and improving stability in terms of synchronization and monetization."
"It is expensive within this class of products."
"The installation process could use improvement. I hope that in the next release, the installation process is easier."
"We would have more capability to interact with the catalog and inventories, so a more DevOps-friendly solution is needed."
"The new version is very unstable."
