Boomi

"Dell Boomi for your systems integration needs"

Kommentare: We have complex requirements to integrate with a various cloud and on premise applications, related to the semiconductor manufacturing business of our company. Also, b2b integration with 30+ suppliers is needed.
Though I was skeptical initially that Boomi can cover our needs, after joining their first Boomi World in 2017 and talking to Boomi specialists and with their customers, I was convinced we are on the right track.
Now, few years later I can say Boomi was a good choice.

Vorteile: By definition, Boomi is built for systems integration. What this means is that you get a long list of out of the box integration connectors (90+). We have used Boomi to seamlessly integrate our NetSuite ERP with:
- cloud applications: Namely, OpenAIR, Box
- on premise applications: Secure FTP, custom API for Oracle Agile PLM and custom apps
It has covered most of our integration needs with a relatively small to medium effort.

Nachteile: Also by definition, Boomi is built with the idea that not only technical people can do these integrations. This is one reason that higher management of a company can be "pursued" to purchase it. However, in reality non-technical people can only achieve very simple integrations with the drag&drop features of the platform. More technical knowledge is needed because most of the times the requirements are more complex and require custom scripting/mapping between data formats.

"NetSuite to Salesforce Integration"

Vorteile: the ability to fully customize the ETL process between our core business Systems

Nachteile: The system is very well put together, but it is still a little heavy to use without the proper technical background

"One of the Best iPaaS platform"

Kommentare: I have worked on multiple integration tools - SAP PI, Websphere MQ, Informatica Cloud, Mulesoft, SAP CPI and I have felt that Boomi was the easiest and most intuitive to work with. I was able to implement complex orchestration scenarios very quickly compared to tools like SAP PI.

Vorteile: Very easy to learn for a relatively experienced integration developer.
Best in the industry User Interface for an iPaaS.
Great set of features that covers most of the Integration patterns.
Good API Management features.
Good licensing model.

Nachteile: No possibility to export and save a process.

"Fast to build Can be difficult to fix"

Kommentare: A host of apps integrated

Vorteile: Speed of development and range of connectors

Nachteile: Frequent need to restart atoms. Crashes often.

"Boomi Product Review"

Kommentare: I would say it has been overall very positive. When I have a problem I know I can reach SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN and he gets back to me so quickly and resolves problems quickly as well. Resolutions are always solid recommendations, never a hack or a let me figure it out scenario.

Vorteile: Ease of use and company's commitment to the platform and its customers. Monthly updates fix and address problems we are facing and it feels really good to see all the successful customers at BOomi world.

Nachteile: Flow is my primary con, only because we knew the Flow to Boomi Integrate Integration would be necessary but it seems like it may be difficult tech for the citizen Integrators.
