Prince Barai - PeerSpot reviewer
The prebuilt connectors save a lot of time and money, but the customer support and price must be improved
Our customer’s system is very old. We are trying to upgrade it. We are extracting data from the system and sending it to Salesforce. The product is a good option if we want to build process automation for data. It can be done quickly through the tool. We need not do coding and waste our time and efforts. The ease of learning depends on the person who is learning the product. It depends on whether they come from a developer background. It would be easy to learn if they have some experience in coding and have worked on integrations. I haven’t faced many challenges while scaling our integration solutions with MuleSoft Composer. The drag-and-drop interface has not impacted our project deployment time much. The customer support and price can be improved. Overall, I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

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

"The functionality of MuleSoft to connect with any database is the most important feature."
"The product is easy to use. You don't need programming skills to use it."
"The prebuilt connectors have saved our customers a lot of time and money."
"The advantage of using MuleSoft as part as the Salesforce ecosystem is that anything new they build is guaranteed to work with the new features that are coming from the other side."
"The way Composer organizes and manages integration processes is most beneficial. We can easily monitor what's running and what isn't and troubleshoot any data integration issues."
"The solution invokes some RPS from Composer and then sends emails and flat notifications. It helps us integrate with any third-party SAPE or integration tools."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"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."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."
"SAP Process Orchestration provides extensive integrations with external partners, supports B2B operations, and has prepackaged content that saves development time."
 

Cons

"MuleSoft Composer needs to improve its interface and scalability."
"There is also one limitation. We cannot see logs, latencies, or request counts."
"This solution could be improved by offering more integrations with other platforms."
"There are some challenges with API sharing in Composer."
"The technical support team's response time must be improved."
"One additional feature they could add might be something like regional prices. Since we're based in Brazil, we pay in dollars but earn in Brazilian Real."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"It requires some maintenance."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"I think the big improvement required in the tool stems from the fact that the whole issue around it is that we have some downtime failures during upgrades and patching."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's costly, especially for Indian clients."
"Salesforce is licensed by user and by products and so pricing depending on what your requirements are."

"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 product is not a low-priced solution, but I can say that it is competitively priced in the market."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"It's not an expensive solution."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
