Cloud integration has transformed projects and delivers faster, more secure business workflows
In my opinion, the best feature Boomi iPaaS offers is its user interface, which is easy to maintain, has a low cost, and offers low licensing costs, making it very easy to develop any integration. Regarding features, Boomi iPaaS performs best and is more stable. It also has easy support, allowing me to contact the Boomi support vendor team for assistance with atoms, molecules, runtimes, and clusters. Security-wise, it is also more secure, enabling the use of internal OAuth 2.0 tokens and basic authentication for high-level authentication, and I can integrate with third-party services to obtain authentication, with some banking projects in Boomi iPaaS using PayU, Razorpay, and various payment platform authentications. The positive impact of Boomi iPaaS on my organization has been significant, as after adopting it, I received many projects with the help of the Boomi vendor who brought me opportunities for Boomi iPaaS usage. Previously, I used TIBCO, MFT, and WebMethods, which were all very old systems. Boomi iPaaS is cloud-based and continues to update constantly, which has been very useful and led to more business. I can definitely say I see specific positive outcomes after moving to Boomi iPaaS, noting improvements in efficiency, cost savings, and faster project delivery. The connector-based licensing cost is very low compared to other integration tools, and for security purposes, it is helpful. I have observed significant good performance transitioning from old legacy systems to Boomi iPaaS.

Simplified integrations bring flexibility and efficiency to diverse industries through comprehensive features and robust support
SAP is already trying to make improvements for SAP Process Orchestration by releasing updates every quarter, including patches and modules, and from a security standpoint, while it's a tightly coupled tool, they are introducing a lot of enhancements aligned with current market trends. There are standard contents readily available for starting integrations, which suit around 90% of every industry across verticals including pharma, manufacturing, and employee data central with SuccessFactors integration. Regarding functionality-wise improvements in SAP Process Orchestration, they are now incorporating the Salesforce system. Previously, we needed to rely on a third-party adapter for integration within SAP, but now they are building their own adapters to connect with Salesforce. Additionally, there are options like data connectors using Ariba coming up with SAP Process Orchestration. There's much more to explore, especially as they release new patches, enhancements, and adapters each quarter.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Boomi AtomSphere Integration stands out and outperforms the other products in terms of licensing and scalability."
"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’s a good product and easy in terms of development."
"We have a tight relationship with Boomi; we get support from Boomi then pass it on to our clients, and the support they provide us with is very good."
"Overall, it is a robust platform."
"AtomSphere Integration will suit those looking for small automation and simple integrations."
"Boomi iPaaS has substantially reduced operational costs by providing out-of-the-box connectors that expedite the integration process with enterprise systems."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"The solution is easy to use."
"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"SAP is now one of the leaders in integration."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"Someone who has to work on a PO should at least have a basic understanding of Java because as it is an integration tool, the way SAP provides to transform the messages from one structure to another is very good."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
 

Cons

"Boomi, as a solution, is quite complex for a new user."
"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."
"They have progressed from an ESP architecture, but they have not fully embraced all API design first methodologies."
"There are still some areas that need improvement. For example, when updates are going on, the product becomes very slow."
"The API can use some work to come up to speed with the competition but Dell has plans and is working on resolving that."
"I think data governance and data catalog are areas that Boomi iPaaS can focus on."
"It is quite stable, but it crashes if we run high-volume integration."
"It does the job well and it's robust, however, it is needlessly overcomplicated, and the documentation could be better."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
"The company has come out with a new version, SAP Cloud Integrator, which is not as good as the older version."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"Sometimes, if there is a system-related issue where I have to contact SAP and raise an incident, it takes a couple of days to resolve the issue."
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There could be an easy-to-understand licensing model."
"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"
"The Platinum package is good for licensing, but I’m not sure about the cost and improvements."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"The pricing is a bit complex. While the entry fee may be lower than other solutions, it could be expensive depending on your usage."
"The pricing is not reasonable at all. It's very high."
"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is a relatively cheap and cost-effective product compared to other products like SAP or Oracle."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"My company deals with different pricing models of the product, according to which we don't pay for the solution directly, but we do pay for the maintenance part."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
