SAP Process Orchestration vs SnapLogic comparison

"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."

"The solution is easy to use."

"It is a scalable solution."

"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."

"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."

"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."

"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."

"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."

"An important tool for building prototypes and MVPs than can seamlessly turn into production jobs"

"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."

"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."

"The vendor handles the maintenance of the solution"

"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."

"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."

"The initial setup is very straightforward."

"It is a scalable solution."

"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."

"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."

"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks. However, SAP has released an SAP Cloud Platform Integration which has all of the features, such as API management along with process integration to replace what they had previously."

"I think the main area that SAP PO should improve on is offering pre-delivered content like they do when you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."

"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."

"It requires some maintenance."

"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."

"The cloud capability features need improvement."

"The support is the most important improvement they could make."

"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."

"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."

"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."

"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."

"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."

"What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools."

"We'd like zero downtime in the future."

"It's not an expensive solution."

"The fee for maintenance is costly."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."

"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 cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."

"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"The license model is based on consumption."

"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"

"I used the free trial."

"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."

"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."

"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."

"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
