Robert Heck - PeerSpot reviewer
Co Owner at Hecht und Heck GmbH
The solution is stable, scalable, and flexible
I rate the solution eight out of ten. The number of people required to maintain the solution is dependent on the other applications running. The solution in itself does not require a lot of maintenance. The solution is flexible and I recommend it when you have more complex applications with special requirements.

Migration projects have accelerated data processing and now require better latency and support
The latency is the biggest issue across iPaaS. That is the important part. I have worked not only with SnapLogic, but also with MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, and Jitterbit. They are all fine, but they have different kinds of functionality. They all have similar kinds of problems in different domains. But as I mentioned, SnapLogic has a little bit of an edge because of its functionality and inbuilt functions for Fintech, as compared to the others. This I can say firmly. They need to assess themselves. In this day and age, as I mentioned earlier, terabytes of data need to be read and then have a quick turnaround for downstream systems, especially for GenAI or any LLMs. Then they can definitely improve themselves because right now, most things, in fact, the GenAI, ChatGPT, Cloud, Anthropic, and so many others, require data quality with perfection and more precision. But for all of that, we require a data pipeline that can be read without latency and without any delay, for any reason. So if they can improvise that over the cloud, that would be really fantastic and a really good achievement for them. Not only for them, but for the customer as well. Then no matter what, people cannot leave SnapLogic. They need to be there with the snaps. I don't know much about that. I haven't referred to the documentation that much. But support is something that is pretty obviously required, rather than just providing videos. Technical support is required. The roadmap also needs to be very clearly mentioned and specified. Be specific in which domain they are going to do what, if they are coming out with that roadmap. Otherwise, overall, if they are going to improve their entire system as I mentioned earlier, for the reusability concept and the data pipeline concept, then they will definitely do some magic in the future. 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. So that is why I chose six. From the Fintech point of view, if you are asking on a scale of one to 10, then I would give it an eight out of 10. It is a huge one. There is always a margin for improvement, so that is why I chose eight. If you talk about HR, sales, or any other domain, there is a significant amount of improvement required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ease of access to the data in those databases."
"The most valuable part of SAS/ACCESS is what it is made for: connecting to remote systems that are not part of your physical SAS environment."
"The most valuable feature is you have native access to the external databases."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
"I would tell others looking into using SnapLogic to use it, take it, use it, and use it, because you can't go beyond SnapLogic and SnapLogic is not going to give you any kind of bad experience, definitely."
"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."
"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
"I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features."
 

Cons

"The solution can provide access to the newer databases that come out sooner."
"The pricing model needs to be reconsidered and adjusted."
"I can't really recall any missing feature or general improvement that is needed. We don't really add too many new kinds of databases and therefore our needs are already met."
"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."
"While it performs well, there is some room for improvement in this area."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing model is complex and is based on modular packages as well as the size of the applicable environment."
"The solution's pricing and licensing are expensive."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"The pricing is okay."
"The license model is based on consumption."
