Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."
"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."
"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 most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"The solution is stable."
More SAP Process Orchestration pros
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ease of access to the data in those databases."
"The most valuable part of SAS/ACCESS is what it is made for: connecting to remote systems that are not part of your physical SAS environment."
"The most valuable feature is you have native access to the external databases."
 

Cons

"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"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."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
More SAP Process Orchestration cons
"I can't really recall any missing feature or general improvement that is needed. We don't really add too many new kinds of databases and therefore our needs are already met."
"The solution can provide access to the newer databases that come out sooner."
"The pricing model needs to be reconsidered and adjusted."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"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."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."

Overview

SAP NetWeaver Process Integration facilitates the integration of business processes that span different departments, organizations, or companies. SAP PI is based on general standards so as to enable 3rd-party systems to be integrated. At the center of SAP PI is an XML-based communication that uses HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol). Irrespective of the scenario used, the application-specific contents are transferred in messages in user-defined XML eXtensible Markup Language) from the sender to the receiver either via the Integration Server, or directly between the systems involved. SAP PI can be installed in different ways: Dual usage type installation: Based on both AS ABAP and AS Java. and Advanced Adapter Engine Extended (AEX): Based on AS Java only.
SAS/ACCESS is an out-of-the-box solution for integrating SAS and third-party databases. You can read, write and update data regardless of the database or platform. Because the data appears native to SAS, there is no need to learn Structured Query Language (SQL) or any other database-specific query languages.
