An integration platform that enables you to automate tasks by connecting apps and services

And also patch quarterly, we got we got downbound. And and at that point, it's a little hard to get into the cycle when you're releasing software every every week, and you're trying to, go through an upgrade seven fifty servers, it's a little hard to get into the upgrade flow when when you're running that tight. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It is a scalable solution."

"It is simple to transfer files."

"The solution is easy to use."

"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."

"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."

"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."

"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."

"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."

More SAP Process Orchestration pros

"webMethods platform is used to build an EAI platform, enabling communication between many internal systems and third-party operators."

"The most valuable feature of webMethods Integration Server is all the capabilities it provides. We leverage most of the features, that they have offered to us. Our vendor has made some additional features on top of the webMethods Integration Server and we use all the features together."

"The core product can be used not only for automatic file transfers between applications, but also as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)."

"The most valuable feature is stability."

"It’s fairly easy to view, move, and mange access across different components. Different component types are categorized and can be viewed in a web based administration console."

"It is a bundled product stack for A2A and B2B usage. It is one of the best products which I have used during my integration career."

"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API."

"The connectivity that the tool provides, along with the functionalities needed for our company's business, are some of the beneficial aspects of the product."

Cons

"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."

"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."

"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."

"I think the big improvement required in the tool stems from the fact that the whole issue around it is that we have some downtime failures during upgrades and patching."

"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."

"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."

"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."

"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."

More SAP Process Orchestration cons

"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."

"I would like to see the price improve."

"webMethods Integration Server could improve on the version control. I'm not sure if Web Method has some kind of inbuilt integration with Bitbucket or GitHub or some kind of version control system. However, that's one area where they can improve."

"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."

"We'd like for them to open up to a more cloud-based solution that could offer more flexibility and maybe a better rules engine or more integration with rules engines."

"The configuring of the JWT token would be improved as it is a confusing process. We require more information on this part of the solution."

"The logging capability has room for improvement. That way, we could keep a history of all the transactions. It would be helpful to be able to get to that without having to build a standalone solution to do so."

"Support is expensive."

More webMethods.io cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The fee for maintenance is costly."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"There are fees in addition to the licensing."

"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 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."

"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."

"It's not an expensive solution."

"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."

More SAP Process Orchestration pricing and cost advice

"webMethods Trading Networks is a bit costly compared to others solutions."

"There is a license needed to use the webMethods Integration Server."

"With our current licensing, it's very easy for us to scale. With our older licensing model, it was very hard. This is definitely something that I would highlight."

"I am not involved in the licensing side of things."

"The solution’s pricing is too high."

"webMethods.io is expensive. We have multiple components, and you need to pay for each of them."

"Its cost depends on the use cases."

"Pricing has to be negotiated with the local Software AG representative. SAG can always prepare an appropriate pricing model for every client."
