Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The best features are that it is a cloud-based and a multi-tenant tool.""The connection configuration part and the drag-and-drop integration module are the most valuable features for me.""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.""Boomi AtomSphere Integration is stable.""The product's integration features are quite rich and low code. It is easy to use.""Very effective with its drag-and-drop feature.""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."

"The solution scales well.""The most valuable feature is its ability to extract metadata from various sources- be it an old SaaS application or the latest cloud application.""The way that the solution scans is very useful.""The metadata management of Informatica is great.""I rate the technical support a ten out of ten.""The product seems stable enough.""We can scan anything.""The most valuable feature of Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog is it provides clients with a full view of the enterprise data assets.

Cons
"There are very few string handling functions and few mathematical functions are available.""They are lacking in some streaming features, and messaging features from a listener's point of view.""In day-to-day operations, tracking transactions is a major challenge. It takes hours to track a single transaction. It is not a straightforward process.""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.""Documentation could be improved.""There are more mature (dedicated) API management and master data management (MDM) solutions available in the market.""The API can use some work to come up to speed with the competition but Dell has plans and is working on resolving that.""It is a costly platform. Its pricing could be better."

More Boomi AtomSphere Integration Cons →

"They have to improve their relationship discovery tool. They say that they have AI inside, but this AI did not automatically find relationships or suggested relationships between entities.""The model is somewhat flexible. There are certain aspects of the model that are not as flexible as we would like. It doesn't do certain things to a great level of depth. So, in situations where we want to drill in to do something specific, we have to essentially copy that data into our own structures in order to add that additional layer of flexibility.""Interoperability is one area where EDC has room for improvement. It was challenging when the faculty took over the data world and had specific vendors they wanted to use, and some were not particularly open platforms.""Currently, there are limitations in processing and the interface.""The solution is quite expensive.""It is not easy to set up and configure the tool.""The scalability is tough.""It is more complicated to extract data using the product compared to Visio. The system could display the details on the screen."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The Platinum package is good for licensing, but I’m not sure about the cost and improvements."
  • "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."
  • "The licensing model of Dell Boomi is based on a ‘pay-per-use’ model."
  • "This solution is very economical (based on the connections)."
  • "The pricing is a bit complex. While the entry fee may be lower than other solutions, it could be expensive depending on your usage."
  • "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 cost of the solution is in the neighborhood of $20,000 annually. There are no costs above the standard licensing fee."
  • "Approximately 20k annually."

  • "I have no idea what the price actually is. It is probably not going to be the cheapest, but it is a pretty stable and robust platform from the backend standpoint."
  • "I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
