VARUNKUMAR - PeerSpot reviewer
Mgr Value Chain Integration/EDI at a non-tech company with 10,001+ employees
Industry-leading, easy to implement, and has good mapping specification guidelines
The good thing about OpenText is that we have the mapping specification guideline available, which is not there in a solution like SEEBURGER. Whenever you want to take a decision to move away from OpenText, you have already documented your mapping and what your mapping looks like. So you go to the next provider, provide them with that mapping specification, and it'll be very easy for them to develop a new map instead of just taking the data - input data, output data - and then looking for how the data is getting transformed. So you have the mapping spec level which is a very good feature of OpenText, which we do not have in SEEBURGER. It's very hard to move from SEEBURGER. The solution is easy to implement. It's stable and reliable. They are the industry leaders in the integration space.
Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Simplified integrations bring flexibility and efficiency to diverse industries through comprehensive features and robust support
SAP is already trying to make improvements for SAP Process Orchestration by releasing updates every quarter, including patches and modules, and from a security standpoint, while it's a tightly coupled tool, they are introducing a lot of enhancements aligned with current market trends. There are standard contents readily available for starting integrations, which suit around 90% of every industry across verticals including pharma, manufacturing, and employee data central with SuccessFactors integration. Regarding functionality-wise improvements in SAP Process Orchestration, they are now incorporating the Salesforce system. Previously, we needed to rely on a third-party adapter for integration within SAP, but now they are building their own adapters to connect with Salesforce. Additionally, there are options like data connectors using Ariba coming up with SAP Process Orchestration. There's much more to explore, especially as they release new patches, enhancements, and adapters each quarter.

Pros

"The good thing about OpenText is that we have the mapping specification guideline available, which is not there in a solution like SEEBURGER."
"The solution is easy to implement."
"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."
"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"The solution is stable."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"The stability of the product is very good; there are no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it's reliable."
 

Cons

"Technical support needs to be better."
"Technical support isn't the greatest. The transparency is less than you sometimes need."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"SAP should improve the user interface, as it often lacks modern features and aesthetic appeal."
"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."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"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 solution is highly-priced."
"It's not an expensive solution."
