What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools.

Right now, they have reduced their window period. You will have periodical upgrades from them. Previously, the application used to be down for a while. If you have any real-time pipelines, you need a bridge which is a little costlier solution. You'd need to have a separate server for batching, due to these issues. Otherwise, it'll go down. Your scheduler, you can rerun it, however, in real-time, your business cannot wait. That means you'll maintain a separate server. However, they have reduced this significantly, with downtime down to 15 minutes from two hours. However, if they could further reduce it, that would still be better. We'd like zero downtime in the future. In the past two years, we have seen tremendous growth. We expect very good things in the near future. They, however, do not have their own cloud platform for their iPaaS in the same way AWS or Azure does.

SnapLogic & Integration Developer at a pharma/biotech company with 10,001+ employees

We have our own internal team, which is great. SnapLogic support is okay. When we have issues that can't be fixed internally, we call them and they can help us. If there's an issue with the platform or an issue with the component they have to fix it. It takes some time. It would be nice if it could be a bit faster. However, when we deal with them, we have to wait in a queue and they sometimes have hundreds of customers they have to share their time with. They don't really have support set up to fast-track urgent issues, for example.

Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

SnapLogic offers hybrid deployment, multiple application integration, easy implementation, drag-and-drop interface, low-code development, ETL feature, custom scripting, fast deployment, high flexibility, troubleshooting dashboard, API management, and wide connectivity options. Users appreciate the semantic layer, real-time error highlighting, minimal coding, and efficient heavy data handling. SnapLogic supports various file transformations like CSV and XML parsing, automatic manual activities, and easy onboarding for new developers.

"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."

Room for Improvement

SnapLogic needs better support for complex processing and high-volume integrations, improved API management and monitoring, more user-friendly dashboards, enhanced data flow transparency, additional connectors, standardized logging, and more in-depth data previews. It should also focus on reducing downtimes, expanding features for SaaS markets, providing more training resources, and enabling easier customization. Enhancing customer service and clarifying error messages would also be beneficial. Integrations with Docker and ELK stack, as well as handling of large datasets, require improvement.

"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"
"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
"I don't think the support has better knowledge about technologies and tool support. There were lots of times when we had an issue, and it took me quite a long time to explain the problem. I feel like some of the support staff don't know their product well."

ROI

SnapLogic substantially improved the company's process automation, enabling faster data integrations and reduced manual efforts which led to quicker project deliveries. Users experienced cost savings through decreased reliance on IT resources, and better efficiency in handling complex data workflows. SnapLogic's easy connectivity to various data sources facilitated seamless operations. Return on investment was evident through enhanced data management, operational efficiency, and decreased project timelines, contributing to greater business agility.

Pricing

SnapLogic offers reasonably priced licensing based on usage and the number of integrations and connectors. While the costs have increased recently, many find it worth the expense. The pricing model is consumption-based, with charges varying by data volume and infrastructure. SnapLogic's price remains competitive compared to tools like Informatica, Apigee, and MuleSoft. Enterprise users appreciate the value despite the high costs associated with AI enhancements. Pricing is typically annual, with options for multi-year contracts.

"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"The pricing is okay."

It helps in connecting APIs for effectively transferring data, transforming data types, and syncing data in cloud or databases like Snowflake, Oracle, and PostgreSQL.

Service and Support

SnapLogic's customer service and support receive mixed feedback. Some customers find the support responsive, rating it highly, while others report slow response times and lack of knowledge.
