Three of twelve models named Make first on the direct prompt; two named Boomi. Both were named by all twelve models and Make carries 48 labels and Boomi 26, so the shares are not directly comparable.
Named in four categories this edition.
By Dell Boomi, Chesterbrook. Named in two categories this edition.
Share is the count of first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts over all twelve models, for a mid-market B2B company; rank is within the category; every quote names the model and the prompt it came from. Both figures come from the workflow automation and ipaas page.
Across every category in the September 2026 Edition, Make and Boomi were named in the same answer thirty-eight times, of the 151 answers naming Make and the 79 naming Boomi. In those answers Boomi took the first choice three times and Make eight.

Bold names in an answer are the products the judge labeled a first choice; a model naming several gives each of them that label. The full answer text for every row is in the record.
Every negative label with a quote, up to three, then the highest-weighted positives, up to three. Six of eight in this category shown.
“powerful and often better value, but it is still best suited to app-to-app automation; if you need strong governance ... it may not be the right fit” Perplexity Sonar · negative prompt · soft negative
“only for lightweight, low-volume, non-critical automations; they're not designed for complex, high-volume B2B data integration” DeepSeek V4 Flash · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
“Strong value for mid-complexity workflows... Avoid for long-running processes or data-sensitive industries.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · negative prompt · soft negative
