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 most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"This solution is one of the most stable integration SAP products that you could possibly have."
"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"With SnapLogic, you can cut down the delivery times and send high volumes."
"An important tool for building prototypes and MVPs than can seamlessly turn into production jobs"
"Due to this automation, I see better results compared to the manual ones because the logic I have added to the automation is more specific and more static."
"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."
"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."
"SnapLogice is a low-code development tool."
"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."
 

Cons

"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"The solution isn't meant to scale when high-volume transactions are in play; the scalability could improve."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"One thing is that if there is any error, it is not detecting the error directly in the main pipeline. Rather, I have to backtrace to the child pipeline and then go to the designer and check the error."
"While SnapLogic is powerful, there are several areas for improvement that could enhance user experience."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
"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 license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"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 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 price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
