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

"The solution's technical support is good."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."
"This solution is one of the most stable integration SAP products that you could possibly have."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"Someone who has to work on a PO should at least have a basic understanding of Java because as it is an integration tool, the way SAP provides to transform the messages from one structure to another is very good."
"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."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
"Due to this automation, I see better results compared to the manual ones because the logic I have added to the automation is more specific and more static."
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development."
"The solution is great due to the fact that it is really flexible."
"Everything is very good; it's good for mapping for the company, we have a lot of use cases that we can apply to this solution, and they are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."
"An important tool for building prototypes and MVPs than can seamlessly turn into production jobs"
"I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature. I also found its automation feature valuable. It can be used for automating manual activities. It can be used as a middleware for certain transactional data processing and minimal datasets and ETL activities."
 

Cons

"We have experienced latency and reliability issues when using large amounts of data."
"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 needs to improve a lot in terms of the orchestration part so that more adapters can be provided to users, which are areas where the solution has downsides."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks."
"It is scalable and it requires some maintenance."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."
"While SnapLogic is powerful, there are several areas for improvement that could enhance user experience."
"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."
"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 doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"As for improvements, the monitor that I currently use sometimes gets stuck and I am not able to expand and view the child pipelines in a much easier way."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 solution is highly-priced."
"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"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."
"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."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"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."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
