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

"SAP Process Orchestration is something that I recommend because it is a very high-quality product."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The initial setup is easy...The solution gets automatically connected. The deployment takes six months. I rate its setup phase a ten out of ten."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment."
"The solution makes it easy to solve integration problems."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."
"An important tool for building prototypes and MVPs than can seamlessly turn into production jobs"
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"It's easy to use, scalable and reusable and it's overall a great product."
"If a company needs to use SnapLogic, first they need to consider why they need it, and if you have all your applications moving from on-premise to cloud migration, this is one of the best tools for that."
"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
 

Cons

"The product roadmap suggests it will approach the end of support in several years, and a lot of innovations are now implemented by SAP not in SAP PO, but in SAP Integration Suite, hence, the platform is stable, but doesn't receive a lot of new features in recent updates."
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"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."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"The solution isn't meant to scale when high-volume transactions are in play; the scalability could improve."
"Ultra Pipelines is great in terms of real-time ingestion and real-time jobs but it needs some adjustment."
"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."
"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."
"Sometimes there are glitches when moving a design pipeline from the development to production environment."
"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
"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."
"One area for improvement in SnapLogic is the transparency in the flow of data. It needs to have more transparency. Right now, users only have a preview option at the end of any job flow, so at the end of any Snap Pack, there is a data preview option that lets you review the data and see how it's moving. What would make the solution better is more debugging and more access to change data from the preview panel or more functionality in terms of the preview option."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"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."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"I used the free trial."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"The license model is based on consumption."
