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

"Connectivity to various data sources: The ability to extract data from different data sources gives greater flexibility."

"Server features for scheduler: It is very easy to schedule jobs and monitor them. The interface is easy to use."

"No dependence on native language and ease of use."

"We switched to CloverETL because of its flexibility to connect to various data sources and no dependence on native language and ease of use."

"Familiar, intuitive GUI coming from a Java development background, in-depth, descriptive, and well-laid-out documentation, responsive support through forums directly from Clover staff, a wealth of customizable pre-defined components, descriptive logging for error messages, and ease of install with a light footprint make it very effective to use."

"Key features include wealth of pre-defined components; all components are customizable; descriptive logging, especially for error messages."

"SnapLogic is very user-friendly."

"Due to this automation, I see better results compared to the manual ones because the logic I have added to the automation is more specific and more static."

"Everything is very good; it's good for mapping for the company, we have a lot of use cases that we can apply to this solution, and they are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."

"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development."

"What I found most valuable in SnapLogic is the ETL feature, particularly the Transform Snap Pack, for example, any kind of reading or writing on Transform Snaps. Other than that, all the third-party connectivity tools such as the SAP Snap Pack, Salesforce Snap Pack, Workday Snap Pack, even the ServiceNow Snap Pack, I find all those are pretty useful in SnapLogic."

"There are cheaper tools on the market, but when you compare what they offer with what SnapLogic offers, you will find that you may pay a little more for SnapLogic, but you get a lot more in return."

"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."

"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."

More SnapLogic pros

Cons

"Needs easier automated failure recovery, more and more intuitive auto-generated or filled-in code for components, and easier or more automated sync between CloverETL Designer and CloverETL Server."

"Resource management: We typically run out of heap space, and even the allocation of high heap space does not seem to be enough."

"Needs: easier automated failure recovery; more, and more intuitive auto-generated/filled-in code for components; easier/more automated sync between CloverETL Designer and CloverETL Server."

"Its documentation could be improved."

"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."

"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."

"We'd like zero downtime in the future."

"The solution could improve its API management."

"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."

"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."

"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 am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."
