Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration vs SAP Process Orchestration comparison

"The most valuable feature is that API Gateway is extremely flexible for any feature, such as connecting to Active Directory to pull the users and their authentication information. There are three ways to connect to Active Directory, and the reason for this is that the computing environments of our customers are very different. Every feature in API Gateway has got multiple methodologies for accomplishing those tasks, which is important because customers are constantly changing their security models, IT models, networks, etc. API Gateway is very flexible. It is not a one size fits all sort of situation where it is very rigid, and you can only use these pull-down menus, and that's all it ever does. It is much more open than that. It can give you fabulous reports on your users, usage, security issues, and the data sets that are going through there. You'll suddenly have visibility on the movement of data within or between your organization and other organizations. The other thing is that you're connecting API to API, which is machine to machine. The things that were done manually in an Excel spreadsheet before exchanging data through email are now done machine to machine and server to server. It speeds up the velocity of your business."

"The product is robust."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is quite a stable solution."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is very easy to use."

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

"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."

"The solution is easy to use."

"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."

"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."

"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."

"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."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is an expensive solution."

"Because it is so flexible, you really need someone who knows Axway Gateway or has been through the training and is certified. Just because you know APIs doesn't mean you're going to walk into that API Gateway and understand what to click on. If you're going to get something done quickly, you need to find an engineer from a company who has some experience with it. It is easy to learn, but if you're doing on-the-job training, it is going to take you longer to get your project accomplished."

"The product must improve its visibility and scalability."

"The most important point to improve is the capability to deploy in large enterprises."

"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."

"The product roadmap suggests it will approach the end of support in several years, and a lot of innovations are now implemented by SAP not in SAP PO, but in SAP Integration Suite, hence, the platform is stable, but doesn't receive a lot of new features in recent updates."

"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."

"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."

"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."

"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."

"The cloud capability features need improvement."

"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."

"API Gateway is priced on the number of transactions you run through it. API Gateway is free, and you can install as many API Gateways as you like or are necessary for your network. For example, if all of the data is inside your network or firewall, you may just need one API Gateway. If you have external customers trying to come into your organization through your firewall, you're going to need one API Gateway outside the firewall and one inside the firewall. If you have a lot of remote offices, you may want to put API Gateway in some of those offices as well. They only charge you for your usage of it. In other words, the number of transactions going through it. That's a good benefit."

"The product is not expensive."

"Users need to pay an annual licensing fee for the solution."

"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."

"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."

"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."

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

"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's not an expensive solution."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"The pricing for this solution is fine."
