Laxman  Molugu - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhances operational efficiency with valuable prepackaged content and cost-effective pricing
For organizations that operate within an SAP ecosystem, SAP Process Orchestration is recommended due to its cost-effectiveness and the availability of valuable prepackaged content. It is important to consider the needs of your industry, as SAP Process Orchestration may not meet all requirements in consumer-oriented sectors. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
Selim Seddiki - PeerSpot reviewer
Accessible support with easy upgrades and helpful patch support
The process of upgrading the software is quite easy. For instance, upgrading the Studio is straightforward, especially if done automatically. However, I typically do it manually by downloading the patch and placing it in the dedicated folder before restarting the studio. I have successfully requested the necessary patch from Talend support multiple times to align different studio versions across the team of developers. It was not difficult, and having access to Talend support directly from TNC proved quite beneficial. Our business has been running smoothly for three and a half years.

"The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language"
"Overall, the management and running environment are very stable, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."

Cons

"The solution could be more scalable."
"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"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."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."

"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data."

"Data management could also encompass APIs and real-time streaming data integration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is highly-priced."
