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

"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 offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."
"This solution is one of the most stable integration SAP products that you could possibly have."
"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."
"The solution is working well; we don't have any operational problems with it at all."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"SAP is the best solution for them to integrate with many other third-party systems or other VRP systems."
"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."
"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"What I found most valuable in SnapLogic is the ETL feature, particularly the Transform Snap Pack, for example, any kind of reading or writing on Transform Snaps. Other than that, all the third-party connectivity tools such as the SAP Snap Pack, Salesforce Snap Pack, Workday Snap Pack, even the ServiceNow Snap Pack, I find all those are pretty useful in SnapLogic."
"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually, making it extremely easy to connect to various business systems and product integrations rapidly."
"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."
"They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."
"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."
"SnapLogic delivers measurable ROI through time savings, 70% fewer errors, faster processes, and significant cost reductions while enabling scalable automations across our systems."
"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."
 

Cons

"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 Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
"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 monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical; only the consultants that have technical skills or development skills are able to manage this product."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"There are two main areas for improvement: performance and cost."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
"The learning curve for advanced use cases with SnapLogic could be improved."
"Ultra Pipelines is great in terms of real-time ingestion and real-time jobs but it needs some adjustment."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"We'd like zero downtime in the future."
"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
 

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."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"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."
"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"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."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"I used the free trial."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"The pricing is okay."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
