Featured Reviews

Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
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 initial setup is easy...The solution gets automatically connected. The deployment takes six months. I rate its setup phase a ten out of ten."
"SAP Process Orchestration provides extensive integrations with external partners, supports B2B operations, and has prepackaged content that saves development time."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location. One of the most beneficial areas is monitoring which is very easy because it is all in one place. There are many adapters added recently that can be used for new functionality. The solution is easy to operate and it is more mature than the cloud solution provided by SAP."
"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."
"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"The stability of the product is very good; there are no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it's reliable."
"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."
"The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy."
"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."
"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."
"One of the best features SnapLogic offers is its user-friendly interface."
"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."
"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. This helps a lot."
 

Cons

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"Sometimes, if there is a system-related issue where I have to contact SAP and raise an incident, it takes a couple of days to resolve the issue."
"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."
"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."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"The company has come out with a new version, SAP Cloud Integrator, which is not as good as the older version."
"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky."
"The learning curve for advanced use cases with SnapLogic could be improved."
"While SnapLogic is powerful, there are several areas for improvement that could enhance user experience."
"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky, but for reasons that SnapLogic cannot always control."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic."
