SAP Process Orchestration vs SnapLogic comparison

"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."

"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."

"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."

"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."

"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."

"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."

"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."

"The performance of data processing has increased."

"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."

"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."

"The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy."

"What I found most valuable in SnapLogic is the ETL feature, particularly the Transform Snap Pack, for example, any kind of reading or writing on Transform Snaps. Other than that, all the third-party connectivity tools such as the SAP Snap Pack, Salesforce Snap Pack, Workday Snap Pack, even the ServiceNow Snap Pack, I find all those are pretty useful in SnapLogic."

"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."

"The initial setup is very straightforward."

"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."

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."

"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."

"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."

"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."

"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."

"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."

"There are two main areas for improvement: performance and cost."

"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."

"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."

"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."

"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."

"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."

"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."

"What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools."

"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"

"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."

"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."

"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."

"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."

"It's not an expensive solution."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."

"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."

"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 license model is based on consumption."

"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."

"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."

"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"

"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."

"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."

"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."

"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
