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.

Have built an enterprise-level cloud data pipeline with reliable governance and integration
People use Informatica Enterprise Data Lake because we can create the whole journey from data migration projects from the legacy system to AWS and to the Lake architecture, covering the entire journey from the source to the landing zone, then to the curated zone, and finally consumed by both downstream and upstream applications. The main benefit of Informatica Enterprise Data Lake is that it allows you to use different types of data types, including blobs and storage; all types of data—structured, unstructured, and semi-structured—can exist in the Data Lake architecture, making it robust for retrieving data based on your filtration needs. Its value is actually governed by the client, who combined with our company and AWS, so we all work together to use the workspace and all these things for Informatica Enterprise Data Lake.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Boomi iPaaS has substantially reduced operational costs by providing out-of-the-box connectors that expedite the integration process with enterprise systems."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"This solution has a user-friendly interface and very good documentation with solutions that helped us in working with the tool efficiently."
"It's very user-friendly and designed to be easy to use for the end user."
"It is easy to learn and implement."
"The Salesforce and NetSuite Application specific “connectors” provide a layer of abstraction on top of the SOAP-based APIs to streamline integration development."
"The iPaaS functionality is very mature. The browser based IDE is also very mature and stable."
"The process of using the tool's scalability option is well documented."
 

Cons

"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is not yet exposed to the world as a good product owing to certain shortcomings in the area of marketing where improvements are required."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration should scale up on the migration area."
"We encountered stability issues occasionally, one to two times a year."
"There are very few string handling functions and few mathematical functions are available."
"There should be more scripting possibilities."
"There are more mature (dedicated) API management and master data management (MDM) solutions available in the market."
"It crashes if we run high-volume integration."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"Informatica Enterprise Data Lake's setup process was complex since it doesn't support a lot of real-time systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not reasonable at all. It's very high."
"There could be an easy-to-understand licensing model."
"It is an expensive platform."
"Approximately 20k annually."
"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."
"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"
"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The licenses attached to the solution are highly priced."
