Why MuleSoft over Boomi?
Trusted Platform for Any Integration
MuleSoft simplifies integrations for businesses of any size. Use diverse integration patterns – from low-code integrations to complex workflows and transformations, without the challenges and costs of limited, low-code architectures and performance issues.
Automate Any Process for Any Team
MuleSoft’s fully native robotic process automation (RPA) eliminates repetitive, manual tasks and processes across your systems, from simple to advanced automations. Boomi relies on connectors and integrations with third-party RPA solutions.
End-to-End Document Processing Automation
Seamlessly integrated with Anypoint Platform, MuleSoft Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) uses AI to easily extract data from documents in any format. Boomi requires third-party solutions, that increase complexity and costs.
Market-leading API Management
MuleSoft’s unified, industry-leading API management provides total control over the entire API lifecycle and reduces the need to build from scratch by simplifying reusability. Boomi has a disjointed API lifecycle management offering through acquired technologies that aren’t fully integrated into its core platform.
Manage and Govern Any Agent, Anywhere
Discover, orchestrate, govern, and observe any MCP- and A2A- supported agent – wherever it’s built or hosted – in one place. Boomi Agent Control Tower only supports Boomi-native, Agentforce, and Amazon Bedrock agents.
High Volume and High Frequency
MuleSoft is built for enterprise-scale integrations and automations. Boomi can’t scale to handle high volumes of data and high frequency workloads, leading to longer processing times and the need for custom code and inefficient workarounds.
Don't take our word for it.
Read reviews from real MuleSoft and Boomi Customers
MuleSoft Customer
"MuleSoft's strength lies in its ability to facilitate complex integrations, allowing organizations to connect, [secure, and manage] disparate systems and data across various environments."
Boomi Customer
"If there is something that cannot be [done] with the basic components/ functions, complex code or VERY odd workarounds are required."
MuleSoft Customer
"MuleSoft’s secure platform with granular access controls, well-defined policies, and integrated threat protection collectively safeguard API management while helping organizations meet compliance requirements."
Boomi Customer
"The release cycle for bug fixes and enhancements was monthly which was disruptive in some cases. They have decreased that frequency to an every other month cycle and that is an improvement IMHO."
MuleSoft Customer
"MuleSoft supports various open source technologies and for connectivity, MuleSoft connectors are available. Due to this integration with other technologies/tools/products can be done without additional technical rework."
Boomi Customer
"When a new connector version is released, the code of each integration has to be modified manually and redeployed. There is no automated process to apply new versions. It takes a lot of efforts from dev and testing perspective."

FAQs
MuleSoft offers two products: Anypoint Platform, a developer-centric platform for complex, enterprise-grade connectivity and API management, and MuleSoft for Flow: Integration for automation. In contrast, Boomi’s platform primarily focuses on simplicity and speed for less complex, point-to-point integrations.
Yes. MuleSoft's Anypoint Platform provides a superior developer experience for complex integrations. Its API-first approach and DataWeave language allow for building robust, scalable, and reusable integrations. MuleSoft also offers robust automation tools with MuleSoft for Flow: Integration, providing a dual focus on both complex and simple use cases.
MuleSoft, with its API-led approach and a robust library of connectors, is the better choice for organizations that need to build reusable, scalable, and highly governed integrations for complex enterprise environments. Boomi is a point-to-point solution that focuses primarily on simple use cases, making it less suitable for large-scale enterprise integration.
MuleSoft fully supports integration across multi-cloud and hybrid deployments. It’s compatible with all major public cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) as well as private clouds and on-premises data centers. Anypoint Runtime Fabric allows businesses to deploy and manage Mule applications in a containerized, self-managed environment, providing significant flexibility and control.
MuleSoft's security is a defense-in-depth approach, including encrypted data transport and compliance with key industry standards like HIPAA and GDPR. Its API Governance capabilities allow organizations to centrally enforce policies for security, rate limiting, and access control, ensuring all APIs adhere to consistent standards and preventing API sprawl.
Companies of all sizes, from small businesses to large global corporations including Wells Fargo, HSBC, GM, and Nvidia use MuleSoft. It was named the #1 market share leader in IDC’s 2024 MarketScape report for B2B middleware.
