We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Boomi AtomSphere Flow is very easy to develop and maintain compared to other tools like SAP HANA Cloud Integration or Cloud Platform.""Boomi AtomSphere Flow is integrated through APIs, it exposes the API and any product can call the APIs in the queue. Additionally, it is secure.""The solution's most valuable feature is its core integration with Boomi AtomSphere because it's extremely easy to tap into any informational system of a company.""In the long run, if you have a good team, solution architect, and an architect from Boomi's side, then it is a good tool from an ROI perspective since it can help save money."

"The product helps you to build faster.""While Pega technical support is okay, it also depends on the issues you need help with and who your contact is with Pega.""The interface is quite simple and easy to use, even for beginners.""Overall, the ability to integrate with multiple applications and effective case management is the most valuable.""When our clients automate the KYC and onboarding processes, they can reduce their manual force and then deploy them in much better tasks rather than the mundane activities of selecting forms and gathering information.""Pega BPM's most valuable feature is the use of CDX to solve problems.""The case management functionality of this solution has been most valuable.""The case management is great."

Cons
"Its stability could be improved.""The development effort with Boomi AtomSphere Flow is more when you compare it with other tools, which is a drawback and an area of improvement.""The solution's user interface building needs improvement.""The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. The whole solution is used through an interface and it could always be improved."

More Boomi AtomSphere Flow Cons →

"The local development approach is good in Pega, however, cost-wise, it's getting expensive. That needs to be addressed.""Pega BPM could be improved by including token-based authentication and extending its integration options.""The initial setup takes time.""To learn Pega, you need to be a partner. If someone just wants to learn Pega for the sake of learning, they won't be able to do so as they don't give access to that.""Its implementation in the public sector was a bit complex.""The training aspect of Pega BPM requires significant enhancement. There should be more opportunities for third-party training and engaging events, such as hackathons where individuals can share their expertise. Additionally, the training structure itself should be more organized, as I have received feedback from my colleagues in the COE that the current training approach is overwhelming and requires excessive referencing to obtain accurate information. Another area for improvement would be the user experience with regard to RPA. Simplifying the IDA for citizen developers would make it easier for them to adopt the RPA tool.""They need to support the solution better, at this time the company does not have enough support.""We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "When you use Boomi AtomSphere Flow in production, you have to pay for licenses. The solution is not expensive but it could be cheaper."
  • "Since its pricing positioning has a different construction with respect to its competitors, the solution is sometimes way more expensive and sometimes less expensive."
  • More Boomi AtomSphere Flow Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Licensing is expensive. You need to wisely select between per user and per case."
  • "They have both on-premise and cloud licensing. If you are a small to medium company, go for the cloud option because that eliminates a lot of the setting up of your DevTest and performance environments, multiple environments, because you can buy that from Pega with the cloud option. So your setup time really goes down. If you're a large company, then you're better off putting it within your company. You have other skill resources within your company to create environments."
  • "They need to come up with licensing options. Right now they do have a cloud-based option, but the cloud prices I've seen are much more expensive compared to competing products."
  • "The licensing fees are based on the number of users."
  • "May be somewhat more expensive than other solutions initially, but should have enhanced return on investment."
  • "The price of this solution, including installation and configuration, is comparable to competing vendors."
  • "The pricing is pretty good, compared to other similar products."
  • "It's a user-based license where, as you scale the numbers of users, the price increases."
