"I rate the product's setup phase a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy since it is a very easy process."
"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."
"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."
"The messaging part is the most valuable feature."
"One [of the most valuable features] is the webMethods Designer. That helps our developers develop on their own. It's very intuitive for design. It helps our developers to speed the development of services for the integrations."
"The stability is good."
"The tool supports gRPC."
"It is a very stable product."
"Some of the key features are the integration platform, query mechanism, message handling within the bus, and the rules engine. We've had a really good experience with webMethods Integration Server."
"It's obvious that the heart of the product lies here. It's comprised of all aspects of ESB (Enterprise Gateway, Adapter, TN, Java) and BPM (task, rules engine)."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"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."
"I think the main area that SAP PO should improve on is offering pre-delivered content like they do when you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."
"The product needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."
"The stability of the various modules of the product suite have been a bit of a concern lately. Though their support team is always easy to reach out to, I would prefer it not come to that."
"In terms of scale, I would give it a four out of 10."
"I would like to have a dashboard where I can see all of the communication between components and the configuration."
"webMethods Integration Server needs to add more adapters."
"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."
"As webMethods Integration Server is expensive, that's its area for improvement."
"There should be better logging, or a better dashboard, to allow you to see see the logs of the services."
