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."
"SAP is now one of the leaders in integration."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."
"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."
"The solution is working well; we don't have any operational problems with it at all."
"Orchestration is beneficial for us."
"Since I moved on to SnapLogic and development started in SnapLogic, the development team has been reduced to half, and the amount of time which we are using for development is also reduced."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."
"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."
"Overall, SnapLogic is a very good tool and from a practical standpoint, it delivers integration quickly, reduces manual work, lowers dependency on multiple tools, and improves team productivity, helping us to move faster."
"The solution has solved many problems for our customers and has improved their operations."
"SnapLogic positively impacts my organization, mainly in three areas: speed, system reliability, and maintainability."
 

Cons

"The usability is an area where it can be improved upon."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical; only the consultants that have technical skills or development skills are able to manage this product."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"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."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"The solution isn't meant to scale when high-volume transactions are in play; the scalability could improve."
"It requires some maintenance."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"I don't think the support has better knowledge about technologies and tool support. There were lots of times when we had an issue, and it took me quite a long time to explain the problem. I feel like some of the support staff don't know their product well."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping."
"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."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"The support is the most important improvement they could make."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
