Boomi vs MuleSoft

Eliminating complexity within your technology landscape is how you achieve digital transformation aspirations and see business value faster for less. So then, why would you adopt a developer-centric, code-heavy integration tool that’s difficult to implement and time-consuming to maintain? Enterprises of all sizes are choosing Boomi over MuleSoft for ease of use, speed, and flexibility as they tame application sprawl and fragmentation – without adding complexity and associated cost.

Our industry-leading, independent iPaaS, with more than 20,000 customers, combines enterprise-grade performance, reliability, scalability, and security with the agility MuleSoft lacks.
