We performed a comparison between Boomi iPaaS and Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) 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."It is a low-code and high-configuration platform, which is very valuable. Develop once and run anywhere is another useful feature. It also has connectors for more than 200 applications. It provides value for money. Our customers who have implemented this solution have a very high ROI."
"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."
"This is a fairly easy-to-use tool for integration which can be self-taught for those with a bit of a technical background."
"Extremely flexible for any kind of integration between systems."
"Very effective with its drag-and-drop feature."
"The best features are that it is a cloud-based and a multi-tenant tool."
"I like the tool's optimization feature."
"ODI's best features are customization, integration with other versioning tools, and the ability to define new knowledge modules."
"The product has an ELT approach."
"ODI is a very accessible tool, especially since the mapping functionality has been added."
"The most valuable feature is Data movement."
"Most of the functions are very straightforward, like the data model, mapping, package, and load plan. Thus, a new user could get started very fast."
"The CAEM is very useful in its modularity and portability."
"The most valuable features of ODI are the knowledge modules, such as the Loading Knowledge module and the Check Knowledge module, they are helpful. We can check for the constraints in ODI. That helps in figuring out what are the constraints that are the primary keys created in the tables. We can check them with the Check Knowledge module."
"The tool improved our data integration workflow primarily due to its compatibility with Oracle. Its integration makes it very convenient for analytics. Its most valuable feature is robust extended capability. The solution's debugging capabilities are good."
"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."
"There are very few string handling functions and few mathematical functions are available."
"They should create a custom connector option. With this, they could improve where the user can create the connector, based on their usage."
"Have to create some of our own pre-built connectors."
"There are still some areas that need improvement. For example, when updates are going on, the product becomes very slow."
"Documentation could be improved."
"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."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"I would only point out some minor bugs or glitches in the development interface (ODI studio)."
"The price needs to be lowered. It's too expensive."
"The interface of ODI could be improved. For example, navigating and finding functions can be difficult. For example, you have to know which step you need to go to look at where your job status is. The logical step is a bit complex compared to other tools. It's much easier to get a graphical view, but with ODI, it's graphical, plus you have to know all the other pieces that fit around it. You have to think about the logical and physical aspects."
"ODI could improve by being more user-friendly. Informatica, which is also an ETL tool, similar to ODI, but Informatica is very user-friendly, easy to use, and simple to integrate, compared to ODI. ODI has many features, put them all together, and sometimes we get confused about which ones to use, which ones not to use."
"The tool should improve its pricing. It prevents the application of Oracle ODI on small and medium projects in countries like Croatia, Germany, or the US. While there are no technological obstacles to using it, the high price makes it unfeasible for projects with smaller budgets."
"It would be really good if Oracle considered enabling the tool to integrate with some other platforms that are deprecated simply for commercial reasons"
"At present, when multiple steps are executed in parallel in the load plan and errors occur, the error handling mechanism does not function correctly."
"In our company, we haven't tried consuming services from IoT in our company yet, and I would like to know if the solution will support IoT services in the next release."
