Which one is for you

Pick Boomi if

  • Fits if you connect several enterprise systems and want a trial first
  • Works for teams that start pay-as-you-go and move to a plan later

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you are small: $99 a month before any usage
  • Watch out: usage rates are not shown on the pricing page
  • Skip it if you want monthly billing on the higher plans, as those are annual and custom
  • Tight if you pick Base, which has no test or development environments and no phone support

Pick Tray.ai if

  • Fits if you join many business systems and want agents on them
  • Makes sense if you want a card-free trial to measure your own usage

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if usage grows, as past the plan it is $1.00 per compute unit at list
  • Not for you if you want iPaaS prices, because a quote is built from expected Task usage
  • Watch out: the agent builder and MCP gateway are add-ons, not in the base plans
  • Watch out: on Team, HIPAA, SSO and regional hosting are add-ons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
