How Workato wins.
Workato competes directly with Boomi, but we stand apart from the rest of the industry in these key areas.
01
A native AI fabric, not a gateway bolted on after the fact.
BOOMI - ACQUIRED GATEWAY
Lunar.dev gives Boomi a real AI gateway as of July 27, 2026 - but bolting it onto Agentstudio and Agent Control Tower is new, unproven integration work.
Workato - ENTERPRISE MCP
63 production MCP servers and growing daily, native to the same governed runtime as every recipe since inception.

Frequently asked questions.
Straight answers, sourced from our own docs.
How long does migrating off Boomi actually take?{{ faq0Icon }}
Timelines scale with your integration count and complexity, but our Accelerated Migration Program (AMP) gives you a structured, phased path rather than an open-ended project. We've supported portfolios of 350+ integrations end to end, and we offer free onboarding and subsidized implementation to keep the switch moving.
Do we lose any existing integrations during the switch?{{ faq1Icon }}
No. AMP maps your processes 1:1 into recipes before cutover, with a parallel-run validation step so you can confirm everything behaves identically before you flip over. Anything outside our 1,200+ pre-built connectors can be closed with our SDK for custom connectors.
Is Workato's MCP support production-ready today?{{ faq2Icon }}
Yes. Enterprise MCP was built natively into the same governed runtime that every recipe runs on, not bolted on separately, so you get the same security, access control, and audit logging from day one across 60+ production-ready MCP servers. Boomi added a comparable gateway through its July 2026 Lunar.dev acquisition, but that integration into Boomi's existing agent tooling is still new.
Does Workato run on-premises, or only in the cloud?{{ faq3Icon }}
Workato's platform runs in our cloud, and we extend that to your on-prem systems through our On-Prem Agent (OPA). The OPA sits inside your data center and opens a secure outbound connection to Workato, so on-prem databases, file systems, and legacy apps like SAP participate in your automations without opening inbound firewall ports.
Does Workato have compliance certifications?{{ faq5Icon }}
Yes. SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and HIPAA, audited annually with reports available on request. Our broader compliance program also includes SOC 1 and SOC 3, ISO 27701 and 42001, PCI-DSS 4.0.1, IRAP, and NIST 800-171A r2.
Does Workato support EDI?{{ faq6Icon }}
Yes. A native X12/EDIFACT connector handles trading-partner workflows out of the box, alongside EDI tools built into the recipe builder for generating and parsing EDIFACT, HL7, and X12 documents directly.
Is Workato on the FedRAMP Marketplace?{{ faq7Icon }}
Not yet, that's accurate today, and it's on our roadmap. Federal buyers should ask us directly about timeline and the interim controls we already have in place, since much of our existing certification portfolio (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST 800-171A r2) overlaps with FedRAMP requirements.
Is Workato's pricing transparent?{{ faq8Icon }}
It's usage-based with no bill shock: a platform fee plus task-based pricing that scales with what you actually run. For context, Boomi's own enterprise pricing isn't publicly listed either, both of us route custom deployments through a sales conversation, but we'll walk you through exactly how the model applies to your usage before you commit.
