CTO at a computer software company with 201-500 employees

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.

Achieves rapid results in data migration and has an intuitive user interface

I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL. The interface is interactive, allowing me to quickly learn how to run pipelines and achieve production-ready results swiftly. This agility translates to cost savings, especially for smaller projects and proofs of concept, as less time and effort are needed to deliver results.

Analyst at MSXI

Though the tool offers a visually appealing UI, it needs to improve its documentation

With Zapier, improvements are required in the areas of concerns like bugs, ease of use, and documentation. The product has many bugs, so users have to wait for a period ranging from five minutes to an hour to see where the Zap went. In Zapier, Zaps aren't very understandable owing to the way they work. As a user, you would think that in Zapier, a Zap works in a particular way once you set it up, but it won't happen. At times, some Zaps can interfere with each other, because of which there might be infinite loops that may occur, owing to which multiple Zaps continue to run or break down in general, after which nothing would run in your environment. You would not be notified about the breakdown of Zaps. The bugs in the product may be considered to understand or get an explanation of how Zaps works between software systems, so for something between Gmail and HubSpot, Zapier would explain through better documentation what would work and what wouldn't work. Maybe if Zapier had better functionality with Python or any other coding language in general, it would make the product a lot better.

"It has been a stable product."

"The platform is user-friendly."

"AtomSphere Integration will suit those looking for small automation and simple integrations."

More Boomi iPaaS pros

"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."

"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."

"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."

"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."

"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."

"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."

"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."

"The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy."

More SnapLogic pros

"The product's most valuable feature is automation."

"The most valuable feature of Zapier is it saves me time doing repetitive tasks."

"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."

"The solution is a SaaS and does not require a complex setup."

"The ability to connect web applications to trigger actions in another app after having enriched, formatted, delayed, grouped, and filtered is really valuable for many businesses."

"What's most valuable in Zapier is its simplicity, seamlessness, and smooth plug-in, so you won't need to build code for every action. I'm not a developer, but I can use Zapier."

"Zapier is user friendly and makes it easy to integrate different tools. It has a drag and drop functionality which makes it easy to connect environments."

"We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature."

More Zapier pros

Cons

"It crashes if we run high-volume integration."

"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."

"Documentation could be improved."

"Have to create some of our own pre-built connectors."

"There is no validation in the mapping profile custom scripting, such as IntelliSense or advanced error checking."

"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The product's UI could be more convenient."

"The product could be a little bit more user-friendly."

More Boomi iPaaS cons

"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"

"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."

"What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools."

"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."

"One area for improvement in SnapLogic is the transparency in the flow of data. It needs to have more transparency. Right now, users only have a preview option at the end of any job flow, so at the end of any Snap Pack, there is a data preview option that lets you review the data and see how it's moving. What would make the solution better is more debugging and more access to change data from the preview panel or more functionality in terms of the preview option."

"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."

"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."

"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."

More SnapLogic cons

"The pricing of the solution is quite expensive."

"I would like to see them improve the Quickbase integration. Currently, it only allows triggering actions when records are added, but it would be more useful if we could also trigger actions when records are modified or deleted."

"Some recent changes to the solution have made it bulky and not as intuitive to use as it previously was."

"There is room for improvement in the support. They are not responsive, and they don't take much time to get resolved."

"After mapping them out, and they'd worked for a while, I've had Zapier fail."

"It could support various languages along with Python."

"The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments."

"Zapier needs to improve in the same way most RPA solutions should, such as Robocorp, Make, or UiPath. They are not good at helping you find the connections that you need for the problem that you have. For example, if need something on Instagram. I'm going to have to do research for hours to be able to find the components or the app, which is going to do what I need it to do. It makes it difficult to use the system when you don't know what to use."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There could be an easy-to-understand licensing model."

"The Platinum package is good for licensing, but I’m not sure about the cost and improvements."

"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."

"The licensing model of Dell Boomi is based on a ‘pay-per-use’ model."

"AtomSphere Integration's pricing is competitive, and I would rate it seven out of ten."

"It is an expensive platform."

"The pricing is a bit complex. While the entry fee may be lower than other solutions, it could be expensive depending on your usage."

More Boomi iPaaS pricing and cost advice

"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"

"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."

"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."

"I used the free trial."

"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."

"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."

"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."

"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."

More SnapLogic pricing and cost advice

"It's very straightforward licensing. There's only one cost you have to pay, and if you want a relevant pricing plan, I think you have two or three different models or packages which include the number of notifications or Zaps, as they call it, that you can program."

"Zapier's price is good."

"Think your Zaps through to make sure you don't use more Zaps than you need."

"The product is reasonably priced."

"Zapier is a paid service. Its license renews monthly, and Zapier will downgrade your subscription to the free version when your credit card doesn't have funds. That significantly impacts your service because everything halts completely. Zapier doesn't have any hidden costs."

"Per task, there is a monthly plan involving 15 euros...Also, in different forms, they just give you the ability to use different features. They charge 18.58 euros for the first standard plan, which includes 750 tasks. So, it is about 25 cents per task."

"The price of Zapier is approximately $75 monthly."

"There is a free plan that is, of course, limited. However, it allows you to understand and check true scenarios for a while."

Overview

The Boomi AtomSphere integration platform as a service (iPaaS) supports all your application integration processes – between cloud platforms, software-as-a-service applications, and on-premises systems. Your entire team has online access to a powerful range of integration and data management capabilities, that can be realized in a fraction of the time of legacy middleware technologies.

Boomi

The SnapLogic Intelligent Integration Platform uses AI-powered workflows to automate all stages of IT integration projects – design, development, deployment, and maintenance – whether on-premises, in the cloud, or in hybrid environments. The platform’s easy-to-use, self-service interface enables both expert and citizen integrators to manage all application integration, data integration, API management, B2B integration, and data engineering projects on a single, scalable platform. With SnapLogic, organizations can connect all of their enterprise systems quickly and easily to automate business processes, accelerate analytics, and drive transformation.

Zapier is a tool for primarily non-technical users to connect together web apps.

An integration between two apps is called a Zap. A Zap is made up of a Trigger and one or more Actions or Searches.

Whenever the trigger happens in one app, Zapier will automatically perform the actions or searches in another app in order.

Zaps are very lightweight and easy to set up. Zaps do not import or export old data (they only operate on new items created after the Zap is enabled). Zaps are also not kept in sync ("two way syncing") after the Zap is triggered.

Zaps are deceivingly simple if you're used to dealing with complex and difficult integrations. Their simplicity is what enables anyone to create them.
