Easy integration and workflow proposals streamline processes
The predefined connectors eliminate the need to write code for connectivity. If you have a predefined connector, it is easy to use with plug and play functionality. The processing time and ease of use are significant benefits. As everyone is moving into AI integration, it will definitely help. When creating workflows, they can propose solutions directly.

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.

"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its user-friendly graphical interface."

"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."
"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 most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
 

Cons

"Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
"More frequent releases are needed, due to API changes from Google, Marketo, and Facebook."
"Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
"Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."
"The current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine."
"Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for three weeks or more."
"One of the features that's in development is data privacy in the cloud, along with further SAP integration. For connectivity to SAP systems."
"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"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."
"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"The usability is an area where it can be improved upon."
"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."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Matillion ETL is expensive."
"The solution's pricing is not based on the licensing cost but on the running hours when the Matillion instance is up and running."

"The pricing depends on what edition the customer opts for. For example, the standard edition is priced at $2.00 per credit. And you are only charged when you use it. You're not charged when it's idle."
"I think it is cost conscious. It used to be very cheap and they have more recently bumped up the pricing, so it is competitive now."
