User-friendly and accessible for anyone with computer knowledge and logical thinking
There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool. Currently, it provides basic reports and the ability to create graphs and dashboards, but I'm looking forward to more robust analytics. The plan is to enhance this feature in 2024, around Q2 or Q3, which would save us from relying on external tools like Power BI for insights.

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

"It is among the best, even if not widely known."
"Back in the day, we could only get reports and analyze what happened after the fact, but today now we can generate real-time insights. Transformation Manager feeds your data science projects. We generate models and then give them to the clients, so they can come up with real-time predictions and recommendations in addition to reporting."
"It is a reliable solution."
"Transformation Manager is the backbone of every data pipeline these days because the solution has been on the market for 20 to 30 years, and we use it for various industries, including financial services, manufacturing, healthcare, etc."
"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."
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development."
"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."
"The connection with SOAP is the best feature."
"One of the best features SnapLogic offers is its user-friendly interface."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"SnapLogic has positively impacted my organization by enabling us to bring a lot of external data in for our suppliers so that we can then utilize that information to start reducing ad hoc queries within the business, improve customer relationships, improve customer experience, improve supplier relationships, and it is even now being used as negotiation tools with suppliers."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
 

Cons

"Transformation Manager reporting could be better. There are better options for reporting tools these days. We use Microsoft BI sometimes, but Tableau is becoming too expensive. Microsoft BI's visualization features are maturing."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool."
"We get decent support. It's okay but not great."
"They should build a functional architecture based on queuing."
"One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping."
"As for improvements, the monitor that I currently use sometimes gets stuck and I am not able to expand and view the child pipelines in a much easier way."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"For SnapLogic's AI capabilities, I would say its accuracy is around 85 to 90 percent, and reliability is also around the same, meaning I cannot blindly trust the output and should always review and improve it if required."
"We tried to leverage SnapLogic Intelligent Integration Platform (IIP) with the AWS platform, but utilizing SnapLogic Intelligent Integration Platform (IIP) towards the AWS platform has been a little complex when compared to an Azure private cloud."
"On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate SnapLogic a seven."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive solution."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"The pricing is okay."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"From the ROI perspective, the price is extremely high"
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
