Featured Reviews

Modern tools have boosted mainframe file extraction speed and simplified everyday workflows

Product Engineer at Absa Group

I definitely think BMC AMI DevX could be improved or enhanced in terms of the logging in features. BMC AMI DevX's logging in feature is not so great. Whenever you try to log in, it always prompts you for passwords. Then when you have to switch sessions, because we usually have to switch between production and UAT, there's no quick way of switching between the two. Every time you try to switch, it prompts you to log in. Additionally, there's a pop-up that I always receive. When you click X on it, it doesn't disappear. Eventually, I just end up minimizing it. Furthermore, the startup of BMC AMI DevX takes a long time to start up before it loads. It doesn't just immediately start up and it's ready. It takes a good solid two to three minutes before it's ready so that you can work on it. BMC AMI DevX's logins and the other ones I can understand because security has to be there, but I do feel that once I've logged in, I shouldn't need to log in again. The startup problem is the annoying one because if I want to do something, I need to open it two or three minutes earlier to give it time to load up. The startup problem is the one that definitely needs to be addressed.

Low-code integrations have automated workflows and save time across enterprise applications

Integration Consultant at a consultancy with 1,001-5,000 employees

They can enhance the error handling and debugging part. Troubleshooting complex pipeline failures can be time-consuming. We are spending a lot of time on error handling. More detailed error messages and root cause analysis tools can be added, which will definitely improve the developer experience. In the Ultra real-time integrations, we can monitor the last execution history of only 100 runs. That can be increased, which would be one of the platform improvements that can really be taken. However, they are doing very well because lots of ChatGPTs and AI assistants have been added in the last two years, which makes a very good effect. SnapLogic is the only platform that provides this kind of visibility to the developers. Anyone, even if they have low experience and are starting their IT careers, can directly jump in and learn SnapLogic. The documentation is very easy to learn. Anyone, even a layman, can refer to that documentation and go through its Snap-pack to understand what configuration has to be done to use this Snap-pack. This makes SnapLogic definitely exceptional in the market. You won't find such comprehensive documentation in other iPaaS tools. The draggable packs truly demonstrate its power in usability. Governance and security are also well in place in SnapLogic, but there are areas for improvement. They can add more granular role and permission controls that provide greater flexibility for large enterprises. For example, if you have to provide access to 70 users in one shot, that can be improved. More improvements in policy enforcement capabilities are possible as well. SnapLogic can improve the data lineage part to achieve better end-to-end visibility into data movement. Also, during validation, we can only see up to 2,000 records currently. They can increase that from 2,000 to 20,000. They can put more visibility on costs and resource visibility, with better reporting on platform usage, processing consumption, and cost optimization opportunities.
