Arun Andavar Nagarajan - PeerSpot reviewer
Integrates well , reasonably priced, feature-rich, and has helpful technical support
In terms of improvement, debugging and error handling, Oracle can be much more user-friendly on this, because clients must provide a much more error handling framework, which is a monitoring framework, that is much better. The current one has some level of monitoring, but then there are retrying mechanisms, automatically retrying mechanisms and error recovery mechanisms. Those things need to be greatly improved; they have something, but it is very basic. The error retrying mechanism could be improved. If an error occurs, it can be retried automatically, it would be helpful. Resilience can be enhanced. The migration flow has to improve. They have some kind of agent connecting with the on-premise systems. We need to simplify the process of connecting with non-cloud applications. If you have to connect to some servers from this cloud to non-cloud, that is a bit of a hassle. They now have something called an agent for those, but they can simplify it, and the error frameworks can be implemented much more effectively.
Laxman  Molugu - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhances operational efficiency with valuable prepackaged content and cost-effective pricing
For organizations that operate within an SAP ecosystem, SAP Process Orchestration is recommended due to its cost-effectiveness and the availability of valuable prepackaged content. It is important to consider the needs of your industry, as SAP Process Orchestration may not meet all requirements in consumer-oriented sectors. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"In our customers' organizations, Oracle Integration Cloud Service mainly integrates their other applications with the Oracle Fusion stack. It's very handy in scenarios where they want to seamlessly maintain data flow between applications, with business tools and logic validations in place."
"Technical support responds quickly."
"People are able to scale up, learn it quickly, and start delivering."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Oracle Integration Cloud Service is a really good product and the ROI is very good with it. It lowers development time. A development cycle that may have taken a year without Oracle Integration Cloud Service can drop down to three or four months with it."
"The dashboard provided by Oracle Integration Cloud for monitoring and error handling is very intuitive."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Integration Cloud Service are the seeded integrations with many communication platforms, such as Slack and emails. It works best for the historical communication methods. Those are still prevalent with all the other clients. When we are doing the integrations, it makes it a little bit easier for us to communicate the same output over Slack, rather than sending out an email and downloading the report. The number of seeded functionalities within the Oracle Integration Cloud Service platform is better."
"There are many functionalities. Fundamentally, it provides all the ready-to-use services for consumption between SaaS and other applications."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"Orchestration is beneficial for us."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
 

Cons

"There are a few features that we noticed are not in the cloud. There are some improvements needed. One example is the graphical user interface that needs to improve, it could be easier to use."
"There is a payload size limit and we're unable to integrate some legacy applications."
"Dealing with the large file size has occasionally been a challenge."
"The bulk processing needs improvement."
"The error retrying mechanism could be improved. If an error occurs, it can be retried automatically, it would be helpful."
"The solution's customer service could be better."
"Lacks features for more complex integrations."
"They should provide tutorials for beginners to learn about the processes."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks. However, SAP has released an SAP Cloud Platform Integration which has all of the features, such as API management along with process integration to replace what they had previously."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"The usability is an area where it can be improved upon."
"I think the big improvement required in the tool stems from the fact that the whole issue around it is that we have some downtime failures during upgrades and patching."
"The product roadmap suggests it will approach the end of support in several years, and a lot of innovations are now implemented by SAP not in SAP PO, but in SAP Integration Suite, hence, the platform is stable, but doesn't receive a lot of new features in recent updates."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is reasonable to start with, but when you scale it becomes expensive."
"In the case of Oracle Integration Cloud, costs can be "predictable" as far as the platform and infrastructure are concerned."
"The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is good. It is reasonable and is priced well for the market segment. The model they use is on a per-package unit and we have a two-year subscription."
"Its pricing is relatively lower than other vendors."
"The price is cheaper than all other cloud integration providers."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"The solution is less expensive than other products."
"Oracle uses a universal credit model for OCI. Clients commit to an annual budget and can choose which products to use and build during their contract period. Billing is based on consumption - you're only billed for the products you use."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"Looking at market conditions, vendors nowadays are giving products at very low price levels. However, SAP Process Orchestration have not yet reduced their prices. The prices could be reduced a lot to stay competitive."
"My company deals with different pricing models of the product, according to which we don't pay for the solution directly, but we do pay for the maintenance part."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"It's not an expensive solution."
