SAP Process Orchestration vs SnapLogic comparison

"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."

"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."

"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."

"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."

"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."

"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"

"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."

"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."

"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."

"The initial setup is very straightforward."

"One of the best features SnapLogic offers is its user-friendly interface."

"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."

"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."

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

"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."

"The solution needs to move to the cloud."

"SAP needs to improve a lot in terms of the orchestration part so that more adapters can be provided to users, which are areas where the solution has downsides."

"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."

"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."

"It requires some maintenance."

"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."

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

"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."

"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."

"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."

"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."

"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."

"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."

"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 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 fee for maintenance is costly."

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

"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."

"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."

"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."

"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."

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

"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."

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

"I used the free trial."

"The pricing is okay."

"The license model is based on consumption."

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