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

"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment. It's really unbeatable because it allows you to integrate whatever scenarios you can imagine."
"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."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"The solution makes it easy to solve integration problems."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"SAP is now one of the leaders in integration."
"SnapLogic is very user-friendly."
"Overall, SnapLogic is a very good tool and from a practical standpoint, it delivers integration quickly, reduces manual work, lowers dependency on multiple tools, and improves team productivity, helping us to move faster."
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."
 

Cons

"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."
"It is scalable and it requires some maintenance."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"The usability, for example, is an area where it can be improved upon."
"I think the main area that SAP PO should improve on is offering pre-delivered content like they do when you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."
"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 is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"We won't get help from technical support."
"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."
"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."
"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"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."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"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."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
