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."
"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."
"SAP Process Orchestration offers easy maintainability and is a very flexible tool that easily adapts to any integration standards and artifacts that are readily available."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."
"The support from SAP Process Orchestration is very helpful."
"With SnapLogic, you can cut down the delivery times and send high volumes."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"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."
"SnapLogice is a low-code development tool."
"SnapLogic positively impacts my organization, mainly in three areas: speed, system reliability, and maintainability."
"It is a stable solution."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
 

Cons

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks."
"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 breaks down sometimes."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"The learning curve for advanced use cases with SnapLogic could be improved."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."
"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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