"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."

"API integration could be improved. The legacy system could be on the cloud."
"There is no related transaction stored in the database because it's an OLTP application."
"The one thing that is lacking is easy visibility. It's hard to provide business users with a view into the statuses of their transactions."
"API-Fication required, and there should be more clarity on their cloud migration strategy."
"The tool requires you to write a lot of code in Java and XSLT, which makes development tough."

"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"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 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."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"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."
