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

"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."
"The initial setup is easy."
"With the migration into the new version, the performance has improved and our customers are pleased with this improvement."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"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."
"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"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."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The connection with SOAP is the best feature."
 

Cons

"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 older version of the solution will no longer be supported."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"The solution isn't meant to scale when high-volume transactions are in play; the scalability could improve."
"The support is the most important improvement they could make."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
 

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."
"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"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."
"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 fee for maintenance is costly."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"I used the free trial."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"The pricing is okay."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
