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."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"SAP Process Orchestration offers easy maintainability and is a very flexible tool that easily adapts to any integration standards and artifacts that are readily available."
"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location. One of the most beneficial areas is monitoring which is very easy because it is all in one place. There are many adapters added recently that can be used for new functionality. The solution is easy to operate and it is more mature than the cloud solution provided by SAP."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"SAP Process Orchestration is quite flexible in supporting various integration standards and protocols, and it's fulfilling all our needs."
"SAP Process Orchestration provides extensive integrations with external partners, supports B2B operations, and has prepackaged content that saves development time."
"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"SnapLogic delivers measurable ROI through time savings, 70% fewer errors, faster processes, and significant cost reductions while enabling scalable automations across our systems."
"They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
"I would tell others looking into using SnapLogic to use it, take it, use it, and use it, because you can't go beyond SnapLogic and SnapLogic is not going to give you any kind of bad experience, definitely."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
 

Cons

"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."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."
"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 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."
"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."
"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."
"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."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky."
"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"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."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"The pricing is okay."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"I used the free trial."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"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."
