We performed a comparison between Boomi iPaaS and webMethods Integration Server 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."I have found the solution to be scalable."
"This is a fairly easy-to-use tool for integration which can be self-taught for those with a bit of a technical background."
"We work on the flow between systems and the most valuable features for that purpose are the mapping of data, interface mapping, and data integration."
"It has been a stable product."
"Very effective with its drag-and-drop feature."
"The product's integration features are quite rich and low code. It is easy to use."
"It's very user-friendly and designed to be easy to use for the end user."
"This solution has a user-friendly interface and very good documentation with solutions that helped us in working with the tool efficiently."
"They are the building blocks of EAI in SAG products, and they offer a very good platform."
"The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you."
"One valuable feature is that it is event-driven, so when new data is available on the source it can be quickly processed and displayed. Integration is definitely another useful feature, and B2B is one area where webMethods has its own unique thing going, whereby we can do monitoring of transactions, monitoring of client onboarding, and so on."
"Broker and UM are the best features."
"From a user perspective, the feature which I like the most about Integration Server is its designer."
"It's a visual tool, so our transformations can be quickly implemented without a lot of fuss. The fact that we have an easy way to expose REST services is also very interesting. It offers the possibility to connect over GMS to synchronize message brokers."
"Segregation of deployment for the environments is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"Most of the work in our organization can be more easily done using the tool."
"Documentation could be improved."
"They need to introduce more configurable functions to remove scripting or coding. Scripting should be minimized. It should have exhaustive functions. Currently, it lacks in this aspect."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"They should create a custom connector option. With this, they could improve where the user can create the connector, based on their usage."
"We encountered stability issues occasionally, one to two times a year."
"The API can use some work to come up to speed with the competition but Dell has plans and is working on resolving that."
"They are lacking in some streaming features, and messaging features from a listener's point of view."
"There are still some areas that need improvement. For example, when updates are going on, the product becomes very slow."
"Other products have been using AI and cloud enhancements, but webMethods Integration Server is still lagging in that key area."
"Version control is not very easy. The packages and the integration server are on Eclipse IDE, but you can't compare the code from the IDE. For example, if you are working on Java code, doing version control and deployment for a quick comparison between the code isn't easy. Some tools or plug-ins are there, such as CrossVista, and you can also play with an SVN server where you have to place your package, and from there, you can check, but you have to do that as a separate exercise. You can't do it from the IDE or webMethods server. You can't just right-click and upload your service."
"Support is expensive."
"I would like to see the price improve."
"It would be nice if they had a change management system offering. We built our own deployer application because the one built into webMethods couldn't enforce change management rules. Integration into a change management system, along with the version control system, would be a good offering; it's something that they're lacking."
"Need to see more API portal features like monetizing APIs and private cloud readiness."
"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."
"This solution could be improved by offering subscription based licensing."
