IBM App Connect demonstrates good scalability.
I would rate the scalability of IBM App Connect as nine out of ten.

Room For Improvement

Boomi iPaaS requires enhanced API management, improved documentation, simplified pricing, better integration, and advanced version control for users.
IBM App Connect users seek improved logging, interface enhancements, better community support, and simpler, more cost-effective version transitions.
Clients seek enhanced error analysis, integration, and user experience in Oracle Integration Cloud Service, addressing cost and functionality issues.
The integration landscape has become complex, and having a data strategy with unified data models would make integration easier for any platform, including Boomi.
A significant area for improvement is version control.
The ETL aspect of Boomi iPaaS is not mature enough at the moment.
Version 13 includes around 200 features with cloud platform compatibility.
I find it particularly good for on-premises and now cloud use.
Setup and deployment can be done in OCI, the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, allowing for role-based access and configuration, managing access levels for Oracle Integration Cloud Service environments such as Dev, Test, and Production.
The mapping is a bit complex, so configuration is not very easy for a new user.
Most large customers use multiple clouds, and Oracle's partnership with Azure and other hyperscalers needs additional development on the Integration Cloud Service side.

Boomi iPaaS offers a connection-based pay-per-use model, praised for its flexibility and competitive pricing despite potential cost increases.
IBM App Connect's annual pricing varies by transactions and partnership, with complexities and flexibility in setup and licensing.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service offers flexible, competitive pricing models with predictable costs, discounts for partners, and robust integration options.
While pricing is relative, compared to others, it is favorable.
The pricing for Boomi iPaaS is reasonable, costing around $6,000 per year.
For insurance companies with simple JDBC connections, the process is straightforward.
If integration points exceed 30, I recommend that customers use Oracle Integration Cloud Service as it becomes cost-effective with its pay-as-you-use model and multiple available packages.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service's pricing is affordable and reasonable considering its facilities.

Boomi iPaaS offers flexible, scalable integration with low-code tools, enhancing speed and efficiency for medium-sized organizations.
IBM App Connect excels with robust integration, user-friendly design, scalability, and flexibility for seamless, secure, and complex integrations.

The maturity of the product is significant.
The transformation capabilities in IBM App Connect are particularly beneficial.
The features I find most valuable are message routing, message transformation, and protocol translation.
Additionally, it provides a wide variety of built-in adapters for many cloud providers, such as Azure Blob and AWS S3.

Featured Reviews

Eugene Paden - PeerSpot reviewer
Integration solution proves maturity and drives productivity
There are many features we're using. We're starting to do AI now regarding integration with other platforms, focusing on creating integrations. A significant area for improvement is version control. Currently, you develop and cannot properly roll back to a previous version unless you create different versions. With proper version control, you could know which version to revert to and test other versions.
Emirhan Guven - PeerSpot reviewer
Transforms data efficiently and navigates licensing challenges with ease
The transition between version 12 and version 13 presents some challenges. While version 12 had approximately 10 features, version 13 includes around 200 features with cloud platform compatibility. The learning curve for developers moving from version 12 to 13 could be smoother. When using new components, better context explanations would be beneficial. In version 13, accessing new features requires connecting through a web browser, which can be challenging to understand. The explanation of new features could be more user-friendly.
Sathish Pamisetty - PeerSpot reviewer
Security and integration features are appreciated but some bugs need addressing
The main feature of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is its budget-friendly pricing compared to other middleware tools such as MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, or Workato. Additionally, Oracle Integration Cloud Service provides tools such as PCS and Apex for building user interfaces, allowing users to create UIs with drag-and-drop features. Oracle Integration Cloud Service offers capabilities for data customization and validation, handling different date formats, and API calls using REST and SOAP. With approximately 60 to 70 adapters, it allows integration with systems such as SAP, Salesforce, and ERP. Oracle Integration Cloud Service also comes with pre-built adapters, offering easy setup and security features such as OAuth for connecting with systems such as Salesforce.
