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

Nintex

  • No pricing, workflow limits or feature comparison is published anywhere on the pricing page
  • The pricing route is a contact form, so evaluating cost requires engaging sales first
