SAP Process Orchestration vs SnapLogic comparison

"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."

"It is a scalable solution."

"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."

"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."

"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."

"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 initial setup was straightforward."

"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."

"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."

"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."

"The initial setup is very straightforward."

"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."

"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."

"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."

"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."

"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."

"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."

"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). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."

"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."

"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."

"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."

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

"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."

"The solution could be more scalable."

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

"I would like to see more performance-related dashboards, ones that display the cost of a pipeline, for instance. Also, it would be helpful to have management dashboards for overseeing pipelines and connections."

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

"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier 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."

"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."

"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."

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

"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"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 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."

"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."

"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."

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

"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."

"I used the free trial."

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

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

"The license model is based on consumption."

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

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

"The pricing is okay."
