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.
Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The loading of data is the most valuable feature of Matillion ETL."
"Matillion ETL has great Git integration that is perfect and convenient to use."
"It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its ease of use. If you have had some experience with other solutions, such as Snowflake, the use of this solution will be simple."
"The new version with the Productivity Cloud is very simple. It's easy to use, navigate, and understand."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice. It has a good graphical user interface. You can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool. If there is good connectivity to a cloud database, such as Snowflake, and you can have a lot of Snowflake functionality in the tool."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location. One of the most beneficial areas is monitoring which is very easy because it is all in one place. There are many adapters added recently that can be used for new functionality. The solution is easy to operate and it is more mature than the cloud solution provided by SAP."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."

"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."

"Orchestration is beneficial for us."
 

Cons

"The improvement area could be possible if the tool provides better integration capabilities with other ecosystems, including governance tools or data cataloging tools, as it is currently an area where the solution is lacking."
"Unlike Snowflake which automatically takes care of upgrading to the latest version and includes additional features, with Matillion ETL we need to do this ourselves."
"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level."
"The product's scalability needs improvement. Perhaps adding more connectors would be beneficial."
"One of the features that's in development is data privacy in the cloud, along with further SAP integration. For connectivity to SAP systems."
"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."
"While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use."
"To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms. This would be helpful."
"It requires some maintenance."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The usability is an area where it can be improved upon."
"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."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."

"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."

"The product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
