Boomi Reviews & Product Details

I think what we like about Boomi is the uptime and the API, which is very robust and constantly being innovative. It's great that it easily connects with platforms like AWS as well. We recently started using Boomi with AWS, and although there was a bit of a learning curve, once we got there, it was fantastic. We have been able to create queues in AWS, and Boomi has done a great job making calls to our ERP while checking concurrency. This really helps us assess how much data we can push into the ERP at any given time, depending on user activity. Also, Boomi is constantly developing its features for the future. They're using AI to trigger alerts when something goes wrong or to find anomalies in the data, which then sends an email to our BA team to help them make faster decisions. I appreciate these aspects of Boomi a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there are server restarts in Boomi, which can cause some transactions to be lost. It's a bit of a hassle because we have to find out which transactions were successfully imported and which weren't after a restart. It would be better if this issue was fixed so we wouldn't have to spend so much time dealing with transaction failures due to server restarts. Also, while Boomi is easy to use once it's set up, it's crucial to get the right people to set it up correctly. Just paying for the software doesn't bring efficiency; you have to invest in the right expertise upfront. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. As it is completely low-code platform, this thing sometimes creates a mess while building some complex solution, because at that time we need to use multiple boomi shapes for a single thing, like removing the duplicacy or sorting some records.

2. It doesn't provides the functionality to low-down certain components, only gives the features of adding permission who can edit or delete that, but anyone can view it. This thing sometime, not a good thing, because if we want to lock some processes or folder that only respective developer can access it, that can't be possible in boomi.

3. Also, it provides limited document memory to test in its canvas/playground, so sometimes quite difficult to do unit test in certain processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Additionally, the customer support system is typically very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Makes use of non-native connections using REST APIs are usually more complicated that when we would have using an app such as Postman for example. There is definitely room to improve to make this more intuitive.

The use of emails as a source for source to target river cannot be done with Boomi for our business outlook inbox when the report comes as a link as our business IT firewall security encrypts URLs, which Boomi doesnt have a way to access the report in the link.

Boomi has allowed me to bring value to my company by automating Ecommerce, DTC, B2B processes and data flow at TKG. Integration & Automation platform has been crucial to have data flow to the right places at the right time, with listeners providing near realtime service for our web orders coming from Salesforce. It works seamlessly with SSMS as well and we are exploring Master Data Hub to replace or SSIM packages and stored procedures. Before ammunition I worked with it extensively for complex educational data as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Boomi has some intricacies/inconsistencies that takes experience to nail out, like sometimes JSON and XML maps needing a reimport of the whole profile to modify a single field. Or a main process that holds several sub process, that sometimes which both main and sub process show up in process reporting, making it easier to debug and see executions, and sometimes only the main process showing up, making it difficult to drill down to that specific sub process execution. I'd like to see both main and sub processes in process reporting when s main one fires the sub. Even configuring it exactly as other main process that show both, sometimes the sub wont show up!
