Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
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.

Low-code integrations have automated workflows and save time across enterprise applications
They can enhance the error handling and debugging part. Troubleshooting complex pipeline failures can be time-consuming. We are spending a lot of time on error handling. More detailed error messages and root cause analysis tools can be added, which will definitely improve the developer experience. In the Ultra real-time integrations, we can monitor the last execution history of only 100 runs. That can be increased, which would be one of the platform improvements that can really be taken. However, they are doing very well because lots of ChatGPTs and AI assistants have been added in the last two years, which makes a very good effect. SnapLogic is the only platform that provides this kind of visibility to the developers. Anyone, even if they have low experience and are starting their IT careers, can directly jump in and learn SnapLogic. The documentation is very easy to learn. Anyone, even a layman, can refer to that documentation and go through its Snap-pack to understand what configuration has to be done to use this Snap-pack. This makes SnapLogic definitely exceptional in the market. You won't find such comprehensive documentation in other iPaaS tools. The draggable packs truly demonstrate its power in usability. Governance and security are also well in place in SnapLogic, but there are areas for improvement. They can add more granular role and permission controls that provide greater flexibility for large enterprises. For example, if you have to provide access to 70 users in one shot, that can be improved. More improvements in policy enforcement capabilities are possible as well. SnapLogic can improve the data lineage part to achieve better end-to-end visibility into data movement. Also, during validation, we can only see up to 2,000 records currently. They can increase that from 2,000 to 20,000. They can put more visibility on costs and resource visibility, with better reporting on platform usage, processing consumption, and cost optimization opportunities.

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 is stable."
"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."
"SAP is the best solution for them to integrate with many other third-party systems or other VRP systems."
"This solution is one of the most stable integration SAP products that you could possibly have."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"SnapLogic has impacted my organization positively because many of the automations we made with dragging and dropping files used to be done by a human, so now there is less human error and it saves the team as it requires fewer people to do the work."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually, making it extremely easy to connect to various business systems and product integrations rapidly."
"SnapLogic has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to remove a big risk and cost in removing a legacy integration platform, and we have built the foundations to gain significant efficiencies in our integrations."
"SnapLogic has impacted my organization positively by removing a lot of manual work from people who were doing that tedious work, allowing them to focus on tasks that require more skill and are better uses of their time."
"As I mentioned, we evaluated MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, and SnapLogic, and on top of that, we recently evaluated one technology called Pentaho for an integration platform; however, we found that SnapLogic is the best option currently on the market, so we have gone with it."
 

Cons

"There are two main areas for improvement: performance and cost."
"The usability, for example, is an area where it can be improved upon."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"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."
"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."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
"From the HR point of view, or for HR tech, improvement is required. A couple of connectors are not working with all the relevant APIs, and there is always a restriction in terms of fetching the data."
"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."
"SnapLogic could improve its notification system. When a pipeline fails, the notification sometimes comes back as not very useful."
"I feel SnapLogic can be improved, particularly on the user interface side."
"From our development perspective, we have requested SnapLogic to enhance their SnapGPT to be friendlier, improve documentation capabilities, and enable more Cursor-based type development."
"There are times when snaps fail for unknown reasons, and sometimes after an upgrade, SnapLogic itself becomes unstable, but overall, it holds a 90% stability rate."
"SnapLogic can be improved by not keeping some of the connectors that would be very useful as a premium connector."
"I don't think the support has better knowledge about technologies and tool support. There were lots of times when we had an issue, and it took me quite a long time to explain the problem. I feel like some of the support staff don't know their product well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"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."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"There are fees in addition to the licensing."
"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 pricing is okay."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"I used the free trial."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"The license model is based on consumption."
