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 most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."
"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"The initial setup is easy."
"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
"SnapLogic is a great platform for establishing integrations among various systems or patterns by using any kind of interface. If something is not supported by predefined snaps – snaps are connectors in SnapLogic – you can create them (custom snaps) or write a script."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."
"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."
"SnapLogic delivers measurable ROI through time savings, 70% fewer errors, faster processes, and significant cost reductions while enabling scalable automations across our systems."
 

Cons

"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"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 and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"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."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."
"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."
"We'd like zero downtime in the future."
"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."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"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 license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"The pricing is okay."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"I used the free trial."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
