We performed a comparison between IBM B2B Integrator and SAP Process Orchestration based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Business-to-Business Middleware solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."B2B Integrator is multi-platform, so it can be integrated with Windows, Unix, or whatever, and it can work with almost all programming languages. It can also transfer a lot of data in a short time. For instance, a system I recently implemented exchanges about 20 million files a day."
"The most valuable feature of IBM B2B Integrator is its security and flexibility."
"It is easy of use and it's easy to maintain. It's also faster to on-board partners."
"The technical support on offer through the portal is very helpful and responsive."
"The best feature is that many companies use the solution so there is a lot of peer support."
"The most valuable features are the flexibility and the range of EDI standards that IBM Sterling can handle."
"Very flexible product; it allows implementing different flows on the same infrastructure."
"Everything from the order to fulfillment to the payment process, except for physical packing and shipping, is fully automated for some customer orders."
"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."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"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."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"They do not have a solid partner ecosystem, and they do not have a clear roadmap for down the line; they're missing that clear roadmap."
"Patching or upgrading the product is a bit of a nightmare. It would be nice if they removed the installation manager port. We find it complicates upgrading and patching a great deal."
"The web interface of B2B is quite outdated and not particularly user-friendly."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Map translator needs more enhancements."
"The dashboard is not integrated and should be bundled by the product vendor."
"End-to-end visibility and monitoring application required. The control center is available and covers this area, but it still fails in many monitoring scenarios."
"The tool requires you to write a lot of code in Java and XSLT, which makes development tough."
"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."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for the cloud."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"It requires some maintenance."
"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."
