Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"AtomSphere API Management is a simple platform that's easy to use. If you're using it on-prem, there's a little learning curve.""We can create APIs straightforwardly and quickly and build jobs for data migration.""AtomSphere is tightly integrated into the Boomi iPaaS platform. And Boomi has been augmenting AtomSphere API Management for the past couple of years so version 2.0 is better than 1.0.""Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service.""The stability of the solution is good.""We can develop almost any interface that we need.""The product's stability is good."

More Boomi AtomSphere API Management Pros →

"The most valuable feature is the load balancing with the circuit-breaker function.""The portal for developers that this solution provides has great functionality.""The scalability is very good. That was a key factor in the selection, like how it could be pushed to high volume and scalability, which seemed to be very good.""It is a good product for API management.""The feature I find most valuable is that this solution allows us to manage our security.""You can set up workflows and write limited pieces of logic."

Cons
"To some degree, you need to know what type or amount of API you are creating - whether it's a rest API or web service API. You need to know ETL in order to really get the most out of Boomi.""Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution.""Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management.""It's difficult to integrate the on-prem application with the Dell Boomi Cloud. We have to check to ensure the Dell domain engine is running. It just requires some service endpoints from our on-prem application to connect to Dell Boomi Cloud to make it available to integrate. It would be better if AtomSphere API Management were offered as a purely SaaS application, so I wouldn't need an on-prem component to make it available. We could make a test call or provide some connection parameters. That should enable it to pull the data.""The product is really complex to manage.""From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper.""The API management has room for improvement."

More Boomi AtomSphere API Management Cons →

"It is a young product and does not have the kind of brand recognition that would make it a more popular solution with our clients.""We ran it for a while, but then we decided to move away from Tyk, because Tyk's cloud version, the SaaS version, has a significant limitation of limited flexibility, so you can't program very much.""I would like to see some additional features like having some extensions for .NET core because we use it for our back-end language.""We would like a better tool for generating documentation for the APIs to be developed.""Sometimes when new features are released, they are not immediately stable.""In terms of our usage, the main area of concern is that they tend to build enhancements slightly ahead of the considerations for what those enhancements and extensions are. So it could be slightly better communication with the customer base that would be my main issue with them."

  • "We are using the open-source version of this product, so there are no licensing costs for its use."
  • "The cost curve is far smoother, both in terms of volume and the number of calls it's running on, compared to most competitors. So it's a tad more expensive at the very low end, but the curve is nothing like Apigee or some of the others."
