Authentication mechanism is easy to implement but improvement is needed in documentation
For API security purposes, we use the tool to host all our APIs. This allows us to take advantage of the security features provided by the platform. With the solution, we can implement rules such as rate limiting and restricting the number of API calls for each user. It acts as a secure gateway…

Has automated manual tasks and simplified integration with pre-built connectors while supporting AI use cases
The tool is very user-friendly and not complex to understand. The structure of the platform is easy to understand, and we can build multiple systems with low-code, no-code, so it doesn't require much coding language. Now it is moving more into APIs, so we can create APIs to transfer data, which we can manage. It's moving into AI, so we can create AI agents with LLM models. We can use most of the LLM such as Amazon Bedrock, OpenAI, Azure AI. With those Snaps, we can integrate and move more into the AI world. SnapLogic is hosted on Groundplex and AWS cloud. It has pre-built connectors, which we call Snaps. That is very helpful to connect with multiple systems. We have a dashboard monitor that is very graphical. We can measure exact times in seconds and how much time it took to complete the process. With that help, it's really helpful to see how much memory consumption is utilized. The monitor structure has very good features for SnapLogic. SnapLogic is an integration tool which we use to integrate multiple systems such as source system, target system, cloud systems, and Groundplex systems. It is an iPaaS tool and a very strong tool. Now it is moving more into APIs and AI/ML tools; it is improving their knowledge. It is helpful for creating SnapLogic agents. In this way, SnapLogic is expanding their work.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Good interface, intuitive solution."
"It allowed us to publish and replace pre-essential transactions in one place, with a uniformity in terms of control and policies."
"The tool's authentication mechanism is easy to implement. We had to define a few parameters."
"SnapLogic is a great platform for establishing integrations among various systems or patterns by using any kind of interface. If something is not supported by predefined snaps – snaps are connectors in SnapLogic – you can create them (custom snaps) or write a script."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"
"SnapLogice is a low-code development tool."
"The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy."
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution."
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
 

Cons

"Akana API Management needs to improve its documentation."
"Lacks an integrated billing feature."
"The product has new features that we are going to implement in the next few months, such as API management and analytic reporting."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."
"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
"One area for improvement in SnapLogic is the transparency in the flow of data. It needs to have more transparency. Right now, users only have a preview option at the end of any job flow, so at the end of any Snap Pack, there is a data preview option that lets you review the data and see how it's moving. What would make the solution better is more debugging and more access to change data from the preview panel or more functionality in terms of the preview option."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."
"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For us, the pricing and licensing policies were for an on-premise installation with a fixed cost structure, that matched our budgeting policies."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"The pricing is okay."
"I used the free trial."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
