* No easy way to add counters, looping (for, do/while), and other common programatic behavior
* Near impossible to generate good documentation within integration outside of notes and description fields
* No access to raw REST and SOAP traffic

What do you dislike about the product?
After every release few functionality are not working properly for example: In recent release I notices that the previous Atom selection in test mode is not working but it fixed in next release.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working on SAP SuccessFactors and EDI integrations. The benefit is that the development is quite fast and easy with minimal bugs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please try Dell Boomi it's very good tool for all type of integration on Cloud and on Premises.
Integrations made easy
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity and ease of integrating with other systems
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too good when it comes to performance of the APIs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are integrating with multiple systems through DB connections, Netsuite, API management, HttpClient and are also exposing multiple APIs for the users to integrate with. It is so easy to add a new api.
Good Product, with stable updates

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Some features of configuration can be optimized, i.e. the credentials from the environment can be sourced on connectors while executing in Test mode.)

Although the support is active in community blog, would suggest to produce more documentation on EDI development
Boomi Product Review
What do you like best about the product?
The easy to follow layout for building complex processes. Good support when things don't make sense. Flexibility to fallback on javascript or groovy if pre-defined shapes aren't doing enough. Good pre-built logging.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some error responses are hard to understand. No efforts made to upgrade QB SDK for a QB integration so you lose functionality with key fields like SKU and item types. No work around either as QB is really specific how you connect with it. I guess I should be glad they have an option to connect to QB at all.
But by and large, I've never had an integration that I could accomplish with Boomi. Every single integration I've done (about 100 different EDI messages to a wild array of systems) have all been made extremely efficient because of this tool.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting an extremely wide variety of different systems together within days rather than weeks. Having a ton of flexibility with mapping fields and updating processes to handle more or less within hours instead of days. Every EDI team I come across seems way less organized and their development times are always at least double. I didn't know a thing about EDI before I started working with this tool and now I feel like an absolute Pro, ready to dictate how an integration needs to go, rather than react to what a business may need. I can create extremely robust processes that send detailed messages as to why data might have failed a test. This makes for great communication between Vendor and Customer and ultimately helps planning and doing business.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want the ability to build complex data integration but still have it be flexible and easy enough to use that multiple people can work on the same thing without confusing or breaking pre-existing work, then Boomi is the perfect product. You want reliable logging, easy troubleshooting, and good support then Boomi is for you.
I've found it easy to use and intuitive, real time saver
What do you like best about the product?
It's really easy to develop complex integration processes with visual tools. The GUI really helps make sense of complex jobs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance problems and debugging can be more difficult due to abstraction from the lower layers...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Too many to list, we've done dozens of integrations between many different systems.
Integrations that work
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to schedule and track the completion statuses of our integrations. Ability to audit processes for success and failure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing for ftp seems excessive when many of our connections are simple file dumps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation of EDI delivery and Invoice processing has save lots of manual work. The logging and documentation of these integrations has allowed for improved efficiencies and improved auditing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Review licensing of ftp connections.
Happy with Boomi
What do you like best about the product?
-I usually like the way that Boomi handles data granularity, making it very easy to scrub fields and make decisions based on individual records. On the downside to this, it takes more advanced knowledge of boomi to do something like count the number of records returned by a query, or to merge documents if you don't want granular processing
-Scheduling is easy and it's nice that it is done in atom management as opposed to within the feed itself: so that no code changes/deploys are necessary to change scheduling
-Nice GUI interface
-Process reporting when paired with document tracking allows for strong troubleshooting

What do you dislike about the product?
-It's not as intuitive as other tools, which makes training new staff slightly more challenging.
-There are not easy ways for code migration from one environment to another, and it's a lot of manual work to separate in-work versions as opposed to versions deployed to sandboxes/production/etc
-Love the ability to re-run documents in test mode, but don't like how you can't choose what version of code to test it against

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
-We are integrating our CRM systems with our product data. We send data to our marketing system from our Data warehouse, our DB2/MySQL databases, and from our instance of Salesforce.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend time evaluating whether you will use the Atom Cloud or local atoms, taking into account what kind of endpoints you want, what kind of alerts you'd like, and how much data you'll be sending on a monthly basis
Boomi made Integrations easy and robust
What do you like best about the product?
Boomi initially attracted me with the ton of built in connectors which lowers the integration's complexity.
Process deployment and environment extensions are interesting.

Boomis responsiveness to enhancement requests
What do you like best about the product?
Recently Dell added wildcards to Cross Reference Tables. * and ? (multiple and single placeholders) are supported. This is a very efficient way of doing string transformations in a CRT without building ancillary string functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Integration Packs should support on the fly creation of User Defined Functions in extensions.
Also would appreciate a user friendly way to sort Profile elements - especially in data maps that are extensible.

Developing Integration Packs that will meet most of our customer's interface needs in domains such as Time and Attendance to Pay Roll and Master HR Records to the Time and Attendance system.
