Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Simplified integrations bring flexibility and efficiency to diverse industries through comprehensive features and robust support
SAP is already trying to make improvements for SAP Process Orchestration by releasing updates every quarter, including patches and modules, and from a security standpoint, while it's a tightly coupled tool, they are introducing a lot of enhancements aligned with current market trends. There are standard contents readily available for starting integrations, which suit around 90% of every industry across verticals including pharma, manufacturing, and employee data central with SuccessFactors integration. Regarding functionality-wise improvements in SAP Process Orchestration, they are now incorporating the Salesforce system. Previously, we needed to rely on a third-party adapter for integration within SAP, but now they are building their own adapters to connect with Salesforce. Additionally, there are options like data connectors using Ariba coming up with SAP Process Orchestration. There's much more to explore, especially as they release new patches, enhancements, and adapters each quarter.

Automation has transformed daily operations and now delivers faster, more accurate data flows
The best features in SnapLogic are the drag-and-drop interface which makes it easy to build data and application flows. No heavy coding is required, making it ideal for both technical and non-technical users. SnapLogic also offers pre-built snaps, real-time and batch processing, API management and integration, cloud and hybrid support, dashboarding and monitoring, error handling and retry mechanisms, scalability, security and governance, and transformation capabilities with built-in functions to clean and transform data, expressions, aggregations, and mappings. SnapLogic offers auto-mapping and smart schema detection as additional features. SnapLogic can detect schemas automatically, which helps when sources evolve or change, and this matters because there is less manual mapping work.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SAP Process Orchestration offers easy maintainability and is a very flexible tool that easily adapts to any integration standards and artifacts that are readily available."
"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution."
"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature."
"The connection with SOAP is the best feature."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, if there is a system-related issue where I have to contact SAP and raise an incident, it takes a couple of days to resolve the issue."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."
"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)."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky, but for reasons that SnapLogic cannot always control."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"That said, while the SnapLogic technical managers are very good, the support model isn't great and should improve."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
"One thing is that if there is any error, it is not detecting the error directly in the main pipeline. Rather, I have to backtrace to the child pipeline and then go to the designer and check the error."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"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."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"I used the free trial."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"The pricing is okay."
