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

"There are many functionalities. Fundamentally, it provides all the ready-to-use services for consumption between SaaS and other applications."
"Oracle Integration Cloud Service offers a lot of adaptors."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"OIC offers a number of pre-built technology and SaaS adapters for high productivity for a wide range of target systems, both in-house via agents and cloud/SaaS, via a very flexible range of interfaces."
"People are able to scale up, learn it quickly, and start delivering."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Provides various ways to secure services as well as providing extensive support."
"I particularly like the drag-and-drop feature for designing integrations and processes."
"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment. It's really unbeatable because it allows you to integrate whatever scenarios you can imagine."
"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 solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."
"The initial setup is easy...The solution gets automatically connected. The deployment takes six months. I rate its setup phase a ten out of ten."
"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
 

Cons

"Make it more similar to the on-premises features. For example, if you can edit the code directly rather than just dragging and dropping, or if you can edit the examples by going into the background, and one-click migration, I'd like to see included in the next release."
"Lacks features for more complex integrations."
"Oracle Integration Cloud Service can improve file handling. Currently, our real-time file polling limitation is 10 MB, if that size can be increased it would be helpful. For example, increasing the size from 10 MB to 1 GB."
"If an inbound file is larger than one GB, it cannot be transformed within Oracle."
"With JSON, if the tool provides support similar to XML, then it would be helpful."
"The solution is expensive."
"Now the platform is not built in a way that you can define."
"In designer mode, sometimes the browser closure or other unknown issues can cause strange behavior, which requires a restart."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is reasonable to start with, but when you scale it becomes expensive."
"The price is cheaper than all other cloud integration providers."
"In the case of Oracle Integration Cloud, costs can be "predictable" as far as the platform and infrastructure are concerned."
"Its pricing is relatively lower than other vendors."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"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."
"Pricing is not on the economic side since it is a tool for enterprise-sized companies."
"The solution is less expensive than other products."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"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 product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"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."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
