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

"SAP Process Orchestration is quite flexible in supporting various integration standards and protocols, and it's fulfilling all our needs."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"With the migration into the new version, the performance has improved and our customers are pleased with this improvement."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."
"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."
"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."
"I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature."
"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."
"It is a scalable solution."
"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."
"It's easy to use, scalable and reusable and it's overall a great product."
"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."
 

Cons

"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for organizations that are primarily cloud-based."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"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."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"
"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky."
"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."
"While SnapLogic is powerful, there are several areas for improvement that could enhance user experience."
"Ultra Pipelines is great in terms of real-time ingestion and real-time jobs but it needs some adjustment."
"As for improvements, the monitor that I currently use sometimes gets stuck and I am not able to expand and view the child pipelines in a much easier way."
"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"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 pricing for this solution is fine."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"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 pricing is okay."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"I used the free trial."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
