Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Boomi

  • Subscription tier prices are not published; only the pay-as-you-go base of $99 a month plus usage is stated
  • Metered on several axes at once, including connections, users, environments and API transactions, so the bill is hard to predict from any one of them
  • Connection counts, environments and user seats are all capped by edition

Cognito Forms

  • Individual free plan caps at 100 entries per month and 1 user
  • Pro plan ($24/mo monthly, $19/mo billed annually) still limits to 2 users and 2,000 entries per month
  • HIPAA compliance and single sign-on are restricted to the Enterprise tier ($174/mo monthly, $129/mo annual)
