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 stability of the product is very good; there are no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it's reliable."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"SAP Process Orchestration is something that I recommend because it is a very high-quality product."
"The initial setup is easy."
"If a company needs to use SnapLogic, first they need to consider why they need it, and if you have all your applications moving from on-premise to cloud migration, this is one of the best tools for that."
"The solution is great due to the fact that it is really flexible."
"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"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."
"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."
"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"
"It is a scalable solution."
"Everything is very good; it's good for mapping for the company, we have a lot of use cases that we can apply to this solution, and they are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."
 

Cons

"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"The solution isn't meant to scale when high-volume transactions are in play; the scalability could improve."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
"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."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"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."
"Ultra Pipelines is great in terms of real-time ingestion and real-time jobs but it needs some adjustment."
"That said, while the SnapLogic technical managers are very good, the support model isn't great and should improve."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."
"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."
"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."
"While SnapLogic is powerful, there are several areas for improvement that could enhance user experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"It's not an expensive 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."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"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."
"The pricing is okay."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"I used the free trial."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
