Featured Reviews

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.
VinethSuresh - PeerSpot reviewer
Achieves rapid results in data migration and has an intuitive user interface
I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL. The interface is interactive, allowing me to quickly learn how to run pipelines and achieve production-ready results swiftly. This agility translates to cost savings, especially for smaller projects and proofs of concept, as less time and effort are needed to deliver results.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"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."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."
"The solution is easy to use."
"Orchestration is beneficial for us."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"It is a stable solution."
"SnapLogice is a low-code development tool."
"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 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."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
"It is a scalable solution."
"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."
 

Cons

"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
"There are two main areas for improvement: performance and cost."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"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."
"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."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."
"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."
"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."
"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"The pricing is okay."
"I used the free trial."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"The license model is based on consumption."
