We performed a comparison between Boomi iPaaS and Informatica PowerCenter 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."
"Very effective with its drag-and-drop feature."
"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."
"The best features are that it is a cloud-based and a multi-tenant tool."
"This solution has a user-friendly interface and very good documentation with solutions that helped us in working with the tool efficiently."
"The solution has a lot of connectors, which is quite helpful."
"It is easy to learn and implement."
"Boomi AtomSphere Integration is stable."
"Among all the solutions I have used, I found Informatica PowerCenter to be much more stable in terms of application."
"The most valuable aspects of Informatica PowerCenter are the many features, ease of use, and user-friendliness."
"The support is valuable. There are also open-source ETL products, which work very well, but there is no support. When we face a production problem, being able to get support is valuable, and it brings efficiency. With an open-source solution, we can't engage anyone to resolve the problem as quickly as possible."
"UI-based ability to create data mapping."
"I like the completeness of the way I can build ETL workflows."
"Informatica PowerCenter has been implementing mapping design, data flow, and workflow execution for years."
"The number of docs has been reduced drastically, which is very good."
"The technical support is excellent."
"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 encountered stability issues occasionally, one to two times a year."
"The solution is complex. There's a few items and features that are hard to understand. They should work to simplify the functionality so new users don't struggle."
"There should be more scripting possibilities."
"The API can use some work to come up to speed with the competition but Dell has plans and is working on resolving that."
"Documentation could be improved."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"There are still some areas that need improvement. For example, when updates are going on, the product becomes very slow."
"PowerCenter could be improved by having more big data components. Normally, we prefer Informatica as a relational database, but nowadays, companies are trying to understand and use big data components. I think it would be useful if we had more chances to create a hub ecosystem because customers try to use some data integration tasks by SQL, Spark and Spark codes, and Scala, but at the end of the day, the company will understand that we need to trace all the steps. An ETL tool is a must for that company, if we're talking about the regulated industries like finance, telcos, etc. If Informatica's biggest ecosystems feature were okay, I would prefer to use it."
"Informatica PowerCenter could improve on the documentation for the implementation. The documents provided are not very good for a new user."
"I would like to see an improvement in the digital adoption."
"The documentation could be improved."
"Its scalability can be improved. It is not scalable."
"It should be more cloud-centric than on-prem-centric."
"Informatica are very rigid when it comes to cloud migrations which discourages customers in moving their solution to the cloud."
"Include more instruments for LOGs analysis, interpretation, and job corrections."
