Exceptional drag-and-drop integration module
It would be great to have more assistance and credit services for additional features. For instance, virtual class initials are available but not for backend processing moves. Making that more visible, like other Azure products, would be helpful. Moreover, the documentation is good, but it could be improved. It is changing every day, and I sometimes find that it's not updated enough or some code levels are not included.
AntonHaupt - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficient data integration and transformation with seamless cloud-native integration
In our small business unit, we currently have around four users, with two of them utilizing Matillion within our organization. Considering our growing needs, we're contemplating transitioning to an enterprise SaaS solution where we would share the same instance. Currently, each user is billed individually, but consolidating to a shared instance seems more efficient. Scalability is excellent when using the SaaS solution, easily reaching a rating of ten out of ten. Each data pipeline request is encapsulated within a Docker container and spun off, allowing for instant scalability. Overall, I would rate it a nine out of ten in terms of performance and scalability.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Boomi iPaaS has substantially reduced operational costs by providing out-of-the-box connectors that expedite the integration process with enterprise systems."
"The integration landscape has become complex, and having a data strategy with unified data models would make integration easier for any platform, including Boomi."
"AtomSphere Integration will suit those looking for small automation and simple integrations."
"The iPaaS functionality is very mature. The browser based IDE is also very mature and stable."
"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."
"Low-code development is the most valuable feature."
"It is easy to learn and implement."
"Very effective with its drag-and-drop feature."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice. It has a good graphical user interface. You can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool. If there is good connectivity to a cloud database, such as Snowflake, and you can have a lot of Snowflake functionality in the tool."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
"It has helped us to get onto the cloud quickly."
"It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the CDC (Change Data Capture) component."
"The tool's middle-dimensional structure significantly simplifies obtaining the right data at the appropriate level. This feature makes deploying our applications easier since we utilize a single source without publishing data from various sources."
 

Cons

"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"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."
"In my experience, I haven't encountered any major issues with the tool. However, there could be a learning curve for new users, especially depending on which tool you're using. For example, I've used MuleSoft in the past, which is more code-oriented and requires knowledge of Java. Transitioning to Boomi AtomSphere Integration took me a couple of months because of differences in terminology."
"We encountered stability issues occasionally, one to two times a year."
"They are lacking in some streaming features, and messaging features from a listener's point of view."
"We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience."
"Unlike Snowflake which automatically takes care of upgrading to the latest version and includes additional features, with Matillion ETL we need to do this ourselves."
"Matillion ETL should include more enhanced capabilities for extracting data from the SAP systems."
"It can have multi-environment support. We should be able to deploy it in different environments. Its integration with SAP connection is not so nice, which should be improved. It can also support an on-prem database."
"Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
"When using the SQL loader type there were not a lot of pre-processing features for the data. For example, if there is a table with twenty columns, but we only want to load ten columns. In that case, we can use a security script to select the specific columns needed. However, if we want to perform extensive pre-processing of the data, I faced some challenges with Matillion ETL. I did not encounter many challenges, but my overall experience is limited as I only have three years of experience."
"While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use."
"The improvement area could be possible if the tool provides better integration capabilities with other ecosystems, including governance tools or data cataloging tools, as it is currently an area where the solution is lacking."
"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AtomSphere Integration's pricing is competitive, and I would rate it seven out of ten."
"The Platinum package is good for licensing, but I’m not sure about the cost and improvements."
"It is an expensive platform."
"This solution is very economical (based on the connections)."
"The cost of the solution is in the neighborhood of $20,000 annually. There are no costs above the standard licensing fee."
"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The licensing model of Dell Boomi is based on a ‘pay-per-use’ model."
"The pricing is not reasonable at all. It's very high."
"Purchasing it through the AWS Marketplace is pretty convenient. There is a little bit of back and forth in terms of the licensing based on the machine size, but it seems to have worked out well. it is convenient to have it all as part of our AWS billing."
"The price of Matillion ETL is reasonable."
"It is not necessarily a cheap solution. However, it's reasonable priced, especially with the smaller machines that we run it on."
"Matillion ETL is expensive."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"It was very easy to purchase through the AWS Marketplace, but it was also expensive."
"It is cost-effective. Based on our use case, it's efficient and cheap. It saves a lot of money and our upfront costs are less."
"Its price depends on what you expect. You pay on a monthly basis, but there is a possibility to have special contracts depending on the installation."
