Developer at Selfemployed

Good for large amounts of data and has a variety of use cases but can be complex to use

It's a very complicated tool. Sometimes the customer wants better, faster transaction times. They want the solution to move as fast as possible. We're trying to scale and grow our application with more servers to get the level of speed desired. Everything from small processes to big batch processing needs to be faster.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It does our CICS NEWCOPYs and our Db2 binds for us, whereas before, that was a manual process. It takes a lot of the workload off of the operations folks and off the DBAs."

"It helps our staff work by speeding up their documentation process."

"The debugging is really the most important feature, enabling us to be able to step through."

"The visual ability to see potential downstream impacts to changes being made assists our developers in understanding the impact associated with their change."

"The most valuable feature of Topaz is Xpediter, it's more flexible than Xpediter through MVS."

"With the use of ISPW, we were able to reduce our deployment time for specific applications by utilizing the auto-deploy features."

"We had parallel development before, but the way ISPW implements it is better. It has more control and oversight of the process, whereas before, it was like the Wild West. Everybody could have their own package with their own version of the component in it... ISPW is constantly aware of it. It notifies when someone else is using or has a different version of that component."

"The smart editor helps because it will code-complete for me. I can see code working a lot faster and I'm able to get things coded in less time."

More BMC AMI DevX pros

"The initial setup is easy."

"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."

"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."

"SAP Process Orchestration is something that I recommend because it is a very high-quality product."

"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."

"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."

"SAP Process Orchestration provides extensive integrations with external partners, supports B2B operations, and has prepackaged content that saves development time."

"Orchestration is beneficial for us."

Cons

"One area for improvement with this product could be in providing clearer guidance and tools for disaster recovery planning and execution."

"It would be good if the vendors would work together or at least have some collaboration between them, so they would know what would work and what wouldn't work. Right now, the way things are working, they're relying on the customer to make everything work."

"One thing I would really like to see some improvement on is the promotion diagnostic messages. It invokes utilities "under the covers" to copy components, and it does not echo back any of the error messages from those utilities."

"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it."

"The solution could be improved by being better integrated with the open world. In the next release, I would like to have the ability to work in an open environment whilst remaining integrated with the legacy environment."

"Their technical support could be better. There were times where, when we reported bugs, they would fix one bug but add another one. That's probably because of their support model. A lot of organizations are developing software using Agile rather than the Waterfall method, so things are happening all over the place. You get things quicker, but sometimes one fix will break another one or add other bugs."

"Technical support has gotten better over the years, though there's always room for improvement."

"I find it more cumbersome to use Topaz."

More BMC AMI DevX cons

"The cloud capability features need improvement."

"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."

"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."

"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks."

"The usability is an area where it can be improved upon."

"The product roadmap suggests it will approach the end of support in several years, and a lot of innovations are now implemented by SAP not in SAP PO, but in SAP Integration Suite, hence, the platform is stable, but doesn't receive a lot of new features in recent updates."

"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."

"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."

More SAP Process Orchestration cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In general, Compuware tools are very competitive."

"The price point is great."

"It has saved our developers time and effort when working on documentation, which is now more readable and fluent."

"In terms of pricing, there isn't an extra charge for the parts of it we use. It comes with the licenses we purchased for other products, so no complaints there. The licensing is built in with the other products that you purchase from Compuware."

"The only thing I would mention related to the licensing and/or the pricing, is that they have some visualization features in there that are licensed by concurrent users. We're starting to trip up on that. We're looking to probably increase the number of concurrent licenses that we have. But those types of licensing strategies, where they license by concurrent users or the number of seats is confusing for some people. They don't understand why it works sometimes and doesn't work other times."

"I like the seat-based licensing much more than MSU-based licensing, and that the cost has been competitive."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"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 fee for maintenance is costly."

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

"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 is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."

"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
