Use cases for Spaces
Boomi Spaces enables creation of secure, templatized, installable integrations. Business users can leverage these abstracted integrations with a much simpler UI, without having to deal with the complexities of the Boomi platform.
Also, these solutions can be created one time and shared with multiple users. When updates are made to the integration packs, they can be pushed to all users, similar to how application updates on phones work. A few industry-specific applications are discussed below.
The Connect & Grow initiative
A rapidly expanding global conglomerate, faced a common challenge: scaling their Boomi platform usage without overwhelming their central IT team. They experienced IT bottlenecks from constant requests for simple integrations and a technical gap preventing business users from directly leveraging Boomi. This led to delays and inefficiencies.
To solve this, the company launched their Connect & Grow initiative, powered by Boomi Spaces. Their central IT team became a Center of Excellence, using the Admin Space to curate a library of secure, templatized, installable integrations. These solutions, like Marketing Lead Sync or New Employee Onboarding, allowed IT to define safe, customizable parameters. Access to these curated Spaces was securely managed, ensuring business users could interact with Boomi’s capabilities without ever accessing the organization's core platform infrastructure.
Each business unit received its own User Space – a simplified, intuitive portal. Here, users could easily browse, install, configure (within IT-defined limits), schedule, and monitor relevant solutions. This empowered them to self-service their integration needs, eliminating the reliance on IT for every minor adjustment.
The impact was significant: The company saw a 30% reduction in IT's ad-hoc integration requests, freeing them for strategic projects. Business units gained agility, data quality improved through standardized integrations, and users experienced the power of Boomi in a simplified, secure environment. Boomi Spaces transformed their integration strategy into a distributed, self-service capability, enabling this conglomerate to connect and grow at scale.
The AdvisorLink Hub
A nationwide insurance major, struggled to efficiently support its vast network of independent advisors and consultants. Consultant onboarding was slow, as IT manually provisioned access to various tools. Disparate consultant systems led to data inconsistencies and slow product rollouts. The company needed to empower advisors/consultants without granting full, complex platform access or compromising compliance.
To solve this, the insurer launched the AdvisorLink Hub with Boomi Spaces. Their IT and Product teams used the Admin Space to create secure Spaces for consultants to access Boomi’s services. These included solutions for Auto Policy Quoting & Submission and Home Claims FNOL, allowing IT to control core logic while enabling safe, light configurations. Access to these Spaces was managed based on Consultant type.
Each advisor received a personalized user Space — their AdvisorLink Hub portal. Here, advisor could easily browse, install, and configure relevant solutions (e.g., connecting their local CRM). They could then schedule and monitor data flows directly from the portal, eliminating constant IT intervention.
The results were transformative: The company accelerated consultant onboarding by over 45%, boosting productivity. Consultants gained self-service data submission and synchronization, leading to faster quoting and claims. This significantly reduced IT support requests, freeing them for strategic projects. Boomi Spaces enabled this firm to scale consultant operations efficiently, ensuring data accuracy and compliance, and rapidly deploying new products.
The FarmConnect App
A smart farming solutions provider, faced a critical challenge: integrating diverse farm data (IoT sensors, software) from numerous clients. Their central tech team was burdened by manual, bespoke integrations, and farmers lacked the technical expertise to connect their own data, creating bottlenecks and limiting scalability.
To solve this, the agritech firm launched FarmConnect, powered by Boomi Spaces. Their tech team used the Admin Space to create and publish templatized Integration Packs for common agricultural data sources (for example, IoT Sensor Data Ingest). These packs allowed for safe, controlled configuration by end-users.
Each client received a personalized user Space — a Farm Data Hub portal. Here, farmers could easily browse, install, and perform light configurations for relevant Integration Packs (for example, inputting sensor IDs). They could then schedule and monitor their data flows directly from the portal, without needing deep technical knowledge or IT intervention.
The company accelerated client onboarding, empowering farmers with self-service data integration and real-time insights.
This significantly reduced the tech team's support burden, allowing them to focus on innovation. Boomi Spaces enabled this company to scale efficiently, providing a unified data view and driving agricultural efficiency for their growing client base.
