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.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to implement."

"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."

"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment. It's really unbeatable because it allows you to integrate whatever scenarios you can imagine."

"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location. One of the most beneficial areas is monitoring which is very easy because it is all in one place. There are many adapters added recently that can be used for new functionality. The solution is easy to operate and it is more mature than the cloud solution provided by SAP."

"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."

"Overall, I would rate SAP Process Orchestration a 10 out of 10."

"The solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution."

"It provides essential features such as continuous monitoring of all interfaces are crucial for our needs."

"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."

Cons

"Technical support needs to be better."

"Some configurations can be a little tricky."

"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."

"The solution needs to move to the cloud."

"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."

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

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

"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"The pricing for this solution is fine."

"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."

"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."

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

"Normally, you will have to choose CPU-based licensing...I rate the tool price a five out of ten."

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

"The solution is highly-priced."

"Looking at market conditions, vendors nowadays are giving products at very low price levels. However, SAP Process Orchestration have not yet reduced their prices. The prices could be reduced a lot to stay competitive."
