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

"AtomSphere Integration will suit those looking for small automation and simple integrations."
"The integration landscape has become complex, and having a data strategy with unified data models would make integration easier for any platform, including Boomi."
"It is easy to learn and implement."
"I really appreciate the on-the-go access through the browser and the B2B integration."
"Boomi iPaaS makes it easy to organize ETL procedures that populate data warehouses."
"It has been a stable product."
"We work on the flow between systems and the most valuable features for that purpose are the mapping of data, interface mapping, and data integration."
"The platform is user-friendly."
"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."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
"The productivity is the most valuable feature. It is very easy to write remediations."
"The stability is excellent."
"The solution's customer service is good."
 

Cons

"There are stability issues."
"There should be more scripting possibilities."
"It is a costly platform. Its pricing could be better."
"Have to create some of our own pre-built connectors."
"We encountered stability issues occasionally, one to two times a year."
"There are still some areas that need improvement. For example, when updates are going on, the product becomes very slow."
"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."
"I think data governance and data catalog are areas that Boomi iPaaS can focus on."
"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."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"You cannot include the validation of XPath."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The pricing is a bit complex. While the entry fee may be lower than other solutions, it could be expensive depending on your usage."
"When it comes to pricing, it's not so much about being less expensive as it is about how they don't tie to the hardware on the underlined VMware that you run on, as other vendors do"
"This solution is very economical (based on the connections)."
"The Platinum package is good for licensing, but I’m not sure about the cost and improvements."
"The licensing model of Dell Boomi is based on a ‘pay-per-use’ model."
"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 cost of the solution is in the neighborhood of $20,000 annually. There are no costs above the standard licensing fee."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"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."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
