Divya Prakash - PeerSpot reviewer
An integration tool that is highly compatible and easy to maintain
Dealing with the large file sizes has occasionally been a challenge, though we have found workarounds. But dealing with large file sizes could be easy in integrations. I have also come across schema files where headers, footers, and bodies are there, but it's not a valid schema. None of the MSCAs are defined properly. In such cases, we have to think of multiple workarounds, such as splitting or merging. But this is a standard requirement for organizations, so custom solutions should be provided. There are cases when the systems don't expect additional MSCAs, or they expect headers, footers, or tags with different values. But this is not a proper XML. So if we are dealing with XML conversions, mapping, and integrations, we have to do some custom work. These are solutions that Oracle can provide.
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

"There are many functionalities. Fundamentally, it provides all the ready-to-use services for consumption between SaaS and other applications."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the SFTP adapters, file adapters, and risk adapters, that we use in everyday projects."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of customization."
"Technical support responds quickly."
"I particularly like the drag-and-drop feature for designing integrations and processes."
"The OIC is very good."
"The solution is scalable."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"SAP Process Orchestration provides extensive integrations with external partners, supports B2B operations, and has prepackaged content that saves development time."
"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."
"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."
 

Cons

"There is a payload size limit and we're unable to integrate some legacy applications."
"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."
"The error retrying mechanism could be improved. If an error occurs, it can be retried automatically, it would be helpful."
"The solution is expensive."
"It has lengthy documentation, making the process of building applications more time-consuming."
"While most of the adapters are available through Oracle Integration Cloud Services, they do not have a lot of features. I would like to see some enrichment in this area and for the solution to go deeper into the applications and upgrade the adapters."
"It would be helpful if there were more tutorials or documentation to learn about Oracle Integration Cloud Service."
"Now the platform is not built in a way that you can define."
"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
"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."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"I think the main area that SAP PO should improve on is offering pre-delivered content like they do when you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is less expensive than other products."
"In the case of Oracle Integration Cloud, costs can be "predictable" as far as the platform and infrastructure are concerned."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"It specifies how much data you use and how much storage you require, among other things."
"Pricing is not on the economic side since it is a tool for enterprise-sized companies."
"The price is fair."
"Its pricing is relatively lower than other vendors."
"The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is reasonable to start with, but when you scale it becomes expensive."
"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."
