It would be helpful if the solution offered some videos for novice settings. Boomi, as a solution, is quite complex for a new user. They need some videos for client implementation for new users. This is needed especially for how users can create connectors and how they can effectively implement the system. 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. I haven't found any features lacking, so I'm unsure as to if anything is missing or if anything new could accentuate the current offering.

Boomi consists of several modules, and the API is one product that Boomi is definitely not up to par with. For example, Jitterbit has a better API management module. However, Dell is putting a lot of energy to make changes. There is a new release already now in December or in November (2019), and they're planning some more releases in 2020. But I would say if there is one module that Boomi is less advanced in than the competition it would be the API management. But it might be totally different mid-2020. Another point that could use improvement for Boomi is license pricing. If you don't know the pricing model very well, you might quickly end up paying more than you expected especially if you are growing and adding integrations. Again, it is different than the competition so it may be difficult to compare, but the pricing model could also clearly be simplified.
API management and security need improvement. It needs more capability on the API Administration like approval process, automated process, etc. Lots of enhancements are needed in the API portal so that the developers can view the definitions, try out the APIs, etc. Many features need to be added to the API analytics, with more drilled down analyses, and also on API security.
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.
We would like to see more involvement between Dell Boomi and the end-users to help improve the customer experience.
