Integration solution proves maturity and drives productivity
There are many features we're using. We're starting to do AI now regarding integration with other platforms, focusing on creating integrations. A significant area for improvement is version control. Currently, you develop and cannot properly roll back to a previous version unless you create different versions. With proper version control, you could know which version to revert to and test other versions.
Laxman  Molugu - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhances operational efficiency with valuable prepackaged content and cost-effective pricing
For organizations that operate within an SAP ecosystem, SAP Process Orchestration is recommended due to its cost-effectiveness and the availability of valuable prepackaged content. It is important to consider the needs of your industry, as SAP Process Orchestration may not meet all requirements in consumer-oriented sectors. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

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."
"This is a fairly easy-to-use tool for integration which can be self-taught for those with a bit of a technical background."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its monitoring part to debug certain issues and find problems."
"The product's integration features are quite rich and low code. It is easy to use."
"It is easy to learn and implement."
"The connection configuration part and the drag-and-drop integration module are the most valuable features for me."
"Extremely flexible for any kind of integration between systems."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"I rate the product's setup phase a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy since it is a very easy process."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"The initial setup is easy."
 

Cons

"There are stability issues."
"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."
"Although Boomi iPaaS is top in the market, there might be room for improvement in the ETL aspect, which was recently integrated as another module. This aspect of Boomi iPaaS is not mature enough at the moment."
"There is no validation in the mapping profile custom scripting, such as IntelliSense or advanced error checking."
"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."
"There should be more scripting possibilities."
"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."
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks. However, SAP has released an SAP Cloud Platform Integration which has all of the features, such as API management along with process integration to replace what they had previously."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"I think the big improvement required in the tool stems from the fact that the whole issue around it is that we have some downtime failures during upgrades and patching."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"It requires some maintenance."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
