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.

Automation has transformed daily operations and now delivers faster, more accurate data flows
The best features in SnapLogic are the drag-and-drop interface which makes it easy to build data and application flows. No heavy coding is required, making it ideal for both technical and non-technical users. SnapLogic also offers pre-built snaps, real-time and batch processing, API management and integration, cloud and hybrid support, dashboarding and monitoring, error handling and retry mechanisms, scalability, security and governance, and transformation capabilities with built-in functions to clean and transform data, expressions, aggregations, and mappings. SnapLogic offers auto-mapping and smart schema detection as additional features. SnapLogic can detect schemas automatically, which helps when sources evolve or change, and this matters because there is less manual mapping work.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup is easy...The solution gets automatically connected. The deployment takes six months. I rate its setup phase a ten out of ten."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"I rate the product's setup phase a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy since it is a very easy process."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."
"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."
"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"
"It is a stable solution."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."

Cons

"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."
"SAP needs to improve a lot in terms of the orchestration part so that more adapters can be provided to users, which are areas where the solution has downsides."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"There are two main areas for improvement: performance and cost."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."

"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."
"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"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."
"We'd like zero downtime in the future."
"Sometimes there are glitches when moving a design pipeline from the development to production environment."
