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

"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"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."
"SAP Process Orchestration is quite flexible in supporting various integration standards and protocols, and it's fulfilling all our needs."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"The solution makes it easy to solve integration problems."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"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."
"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 vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."
"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 solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"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."
 

Cons

"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"It is scalable and it requires some maintenance."
"I think the big improvement required in the tool stems from the fact that the whole issue around it is that we have some downtime failures during upgrades and patching."
"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 monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical; only the consultants that have technical skills or development skills are able to manage this product."
"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)."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"We have experienced latency and reliability issues when using large amounts of data."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic."
"From the HR point of view, or for HR tech, improvement is required. A couple of connectors are not working with all the relevant APIs, and there is always a restriction in terms of fetching the data."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky, but for reasons that SnapLogic cannot always control."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"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."
"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 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"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 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 cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"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."
"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."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"I used the free trial."
"The pricing is okay."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
