Overall, Dell Boomi is highly regarded as an effective cloud-based enterprise integration platform that allows organizations to seamlessly integrate various systems across different industries. It offers flexibility and ease of use in developing integrations between systems while providing control over older EAI tools.

Despite this, Dell Boomi has consistently demonstrated its value by streamlining processes, reducing manual work, and empowering organizations to achieve seamless communication between different departments and systems.

Usecase:
We have several SAP clients who needs custom solution as an extension of SAP, it is mostly in form of Web Application or Mobile Application.

Business Problem:
Integrating SAP Backend with Web Application or Mobile Application reliably using API and with minimal licensing cost.

Solution:
Boomi plays integral role in integration to & from SAP backend to any frontend. it allows widely used APIs that are standardized under OpenAPI standards. it also provide Odata service integration with which we can directly communicate with SAP. this allows us to query the SAP like GraphQl does. we get control of what we want from SAP rather than creating new API for every use case.

Boomi is used as a cloud-based Enterprise Integration platform at the organizations I have worked for. We used Boomi to integrate with various systems in different industries, such as supply chain, finance, and auctioning domains. Boomi is basically an iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) that allows for no-code / low-code integrations between systems in an easy and intuitive manner, taking out most of the complexities inherit in integrating data and softwares

Boomi is primarily a technical tool to connect business systems, and, hence, it is used by the Business Technology teams. It caters to the integration needs of Sales, Marketing, and Finance. It connects and helps in ETL from different sources and systems and integrates with Salesforce. It is a great iPaas tool that reduces manual effort and cuts down the development time for someone to come in and write code.

We use it across the company to unify our internal and external applications, and integrated by our analyst team to accelerate our customers' processes, mainly integrated with Salesforce, but also other SAAS systems. We've worked with Dell's Boomi with no major complaints reported by either internal employees or customers so definitely I would recommend it.

Dell Boomi is used as a middleware between systems to allow our systems to communicate with each other. It passes data from one system to another and back. It helps support our ordering process for the products we sell. It is implemented and used by one team, primarily, but it reaches across and affects the entire organization because of its use in our ordering process. Without Dell Boomi, our systems would not be able to communicate with each other so effectively, and it would cripple our product provisioning process.

We were using this middleware in our COE IT department for all our clients. This reduces the manual work and cost of the company through this automation. Currently we are using Dell Boomi for all our integration, more than 25+ projects. As of now, we are using only the integration module in Dell Boomi.

Dell Boomi is used as the main integration tool connecting the main CRM application to the other applications in the IT landscape of the organization. It is also mainly replacing the other legacy integrations, which were developed previously on basic languages like .NET, etc. It is addressing business problems like high development effort and time to roll out an integration need. Definitely the tool justifies a definition of an iPaaS.

Dell Boomi is used for integration activities to bridge environments (both internal and external) with our Netsuite implementation. It is used in the IT organization and is an analyst/engineer tool to use preexisting or built from scratch integration connectors between systems. One of the best advantages of the tool is that it is cloud based for the management tier. The servers which run the integration processes can be in the cloud (we deployed in AWS), but it can also be deployed on premise which can help with firewall/security barriers. Boomi provides connectors out of the box for connecting to various environments through standard mechanisms (ODBC, REST, SOAP API) as well as proprietary connectors to platforms like Netsuite which speeds up the adoption and development of integration processes.

Dell Boomi is being used to seamlessly integrate multiple software platforms across the company. The software solutions are primarily across finance, IT, and sales software solutions. My team leveraged Dell Boomi with our EPM tool, Host Analytics, to connect with various other data repositories, which gives us the right data to craft accurate forecasts and reports.

We are using it as middleware primarily for EDI, but also for integrations with other platforms, such as Shopify and other internal processes. We rely on it to make sure that our data is getting where it needs to go and in a timely fashion. It is critical for our business.

Matrix implements Boomi iPaas as part of a bigger solution for the Ministry of Heath in Israel. We use Boomi in order to integrate all the different medical providers in Israel (MOH, Hospitals and Medical Insurance) and create a large B2B administrative network. The final project will allow patients and medical providers to interact using portals and will automate many manual administrative processes.

We are using Boomi to process B2B reports from our suppliers and input transactions into NetSuite automatically. We are also planning to have more integration (NetSuite and Namely). So far, it's only used by the eBusiness team but when more application integration is implemented, more departments could be involved such as HR. Boomi can reduce a lot of manual effort.

We chose and implemented Boomi to integrate between cloud and on-premise applications, like NetSuite, Namely, OpenAir, Concur etc. It is addressing a wide range of our integration requirements from the manufacturing vendors to internal business processes.
For manufacturing, we are integrating with our 30+ semiconductor suppliers exchanging B2B data in real time with the purpose of managing(planning, tracking) our semiconductor production live.
As for internal business processes we use it to integrate Namely to NetSuite for custom requirements on employees data and Concur to NetSuite for expense reporting specific needs. Also, we use Boomi to bring timesheets data from OpenAir to NetSuite for financial purposes.

Dell Boomi is used by our applications teams to build integrations. We are using it to create real-time applications and batch processes that run our business. Our company is currently doing most of their business processing on an IBM mainframe. Mainframe is limited when it comes to connecting to outside systems and using a middleware tool like Dell Boomi has really increased what the business can do. Dell Boomi has made it easier to create APIs that can be consumed by outside clients.

I have used Dell Boomi to develop integration flows between various end systems on cloud and on-premise. For example, the complete eCommerce flow and the sales channel processing of my client firm is designed using Dell Boomi. The low code and user-friendly UI makes it easy to develop interfaces in a short span of time. Dell Boomi MDM is also leveraged in many of the use cases.

Dell Boomi is used as the iPaas for my Client organization, where the client was using older EAI tool by name JCAPS where its life has come to an end. We have suggested the Client based on the current technologies and the existing architecture of the client. We have exposed Dell Boomi's capabilities in cloud based integration and the ease of using it by developers and architects. Dell Boomi is used as the Enterprise Integration Tool for the organization , where both on-premise and cloud integration is used. Users are happy with the performance and the control it provides, over the old EAI Tool. Dell Boomi has all the connectors that are required for the trending market technologies and with out being hurdled you can integrate them.

We started using Boomi in Finance and Operations with a simple use case of provisioning our Product to the customer as Orders are approved and processed. Since then, we have used it to connect Salesforce Account and Opportunity records to NetSuite Account and Sales Order records, to connect Workfront and NetSuite, our Production servers and NetSuite, Zendesk and Salesforce, etc... thought the entire organization. We now have a Corporate Information Systems team that sits within Finance that are Boomi power users, and have 6-7 ongoing projects at any point-in-time. The main objective we are using Boomi for is to connect all of our different SaaS platforms together, so that data can systematically flow between the different environments.
