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
Telegram
- End-to-end encryption applies only to Secret Chats; private and group Cloud Chats use server-client encryption, so Telegram holds the data
- Secret Chats are device-specific and are not part of the Telegram cloud, so they can only be read on the device they started on
- Logging out destroys all of your Secret Chats
- The Secret Chat self-destruct timer applies only to messages sent after the timer is set and has no effect on earlier messages
- Telegram states screenshot detection cannot be guaranteed on some Android and Windows Phone devices, so screenshots of Secret Chats can be taken silently
- Messages cannot be forwarded out of Secret Chats
- The self-destruct timer in cloud chats covers media only, not text
