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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Compared to the likes of traditional ETLs, like Informatica, SnapLogic, and Talend, or even raw Python scripts, this product needs no improvement, as it is so much better."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation."
"We allow non-technical people to use Matillion to load data into our data warehouse for reporting. Thus, it is easy enough to use that we don't always have to get a technical person involved in setting up a data movement (ETL)."
"It's so intuitive and easy to use you can actually just teach yourself how to use it."
"The tool's middle-dimensional structure significantly simplifies obtaining the right data at the appropriate level. This feature makes deploying our applications easier since we utilize a single source without publishing data from various sources."
"The product is quite stable and can handle complex data integration tasks well."
"Give it a shot. See how easy it is to get started with the product, because the scripting which is required is minimal."
"Matillion ETL is one hundred percent stable."
"The support from SAP Process Orchestration is very helpful."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"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 has all the features that are necessary."
"Orchestration is beneficial for us."
"The solution is easy to use."
"SAP is now one of the leaders in integration."
 

Cons

"The tool's lineage is very weak."
"Scalability in Matillion Data Productivity Cloud has some limitations. Depending on the nature of data sets, volume, and mixture of different data, the scalability could be improved as manual code writing is still required."
"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level."
"Matillion ETL should include more enhanced capabilities for extracting data from the SAP systems."
"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."
"The product's scalability needs improvement. Perhaps adding more connectors would be beneficial."
"It is not an end-to-end platform for ETL. To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms."
"It can have multi-environment support. We should be able to deploy it in different environments. Its integration with SAP connection is not so nice, which should be improved. It can also support an on-prem database."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."
"We have experienced latency and reliability issues when using large amounts of data."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud."
"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Matillion ETL has a pay-as-you-go pricing model of a few dollars per hour of runtime."
"It was procured through the AWS Marketplace because it keeps things simple. They offer retail-like checkout and bill through your existing Amazon Web Services account."
"Purchasing it through the AWS Marketplace is pretty convenient. There is a little bit of back and forth in terms of the licensing based on the machine size, but it seems to have worked out well. it is convenient to have it all as part of our AWS billing."
"The solution is very cheap. You're paying $2.50 an hour and if you set your service up, which you can do, you're not getting charged. Currently, our ETL process is just an overnight process that runs for about an hour. I can start and stop my server just for an hour if I want to and spent $2.50 a day for an ETL solution. There are no additional costs."
"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."
"The price of Matillion ETL is reasonable."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"It was very easy to purchase through the AWS Marketplace, but it was also expensive."
"My company deals with different pricing models of the product, according to which we don't pay for the solution directly, but we do pay for the maintenance part."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
