SAP Process Orchestration vs SnapLogic comparison

"The solution is easy to use."

"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."

"The solution is stable."

"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment. It's really unbeatable because it allows you to integrate whatever scenarios you can imagine."

"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."

"I rate the product's setup phase a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy since it is a very easy process."

"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."

"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."

"They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."

"The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy."

"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."

"I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature. I also found its automation feature valuable. It can be used for automating manual activities. It can be used as a middleware for certain transactional data processing and minimal datasets and ETL activities."

"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution."

"SnapLogic positively impacts my organization, mainly in three areas: speed, system reliability, and maintainability."

"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."

"The cloud capability features need improvement."

"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."

"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."

"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks. However, SAP has released an SAP Cloud Platform Integration which has all of the features, such as API management along with process integration to replace what they had previously."

"The usability is an area where it can be improved upon."

"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."

"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."

"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 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."

"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."

"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."

"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."

"Sometimes there are glitches when moving a design pipeline from the development to production environment."

"I find the learning curve for complex transformations, the debugging experience, performance optimization visibility, cost for small teams, and version control and DevOps integration could be improved in SnapLogic."

"We'd like zero downtime in the future."

"What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. 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. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"The fee for maintenance is costly."

"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"It's not an expensive solution."

"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."

"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."

"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."

"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."

"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"

"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."

"The pricing is okay."

"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."

"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."

"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."

"The license model is based on consumption."
