"It reduces a lot of legacy coding."
"The ability to scale through partitions helped us to improve the performance."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."

"Unstructured data handling is an important area with a shortcoming that needs improvement in the solution."
"As a connector to big data, it is not well developed. We've had problems connecting Informatica with Hadoop. The functionality to connect Informatica with Hadoop, for me it's not good."
"This solution needs the functionality to do batch processing of data. It also lacks connectivity to NoSQL, unstructured data sources."
"Informatica PowerCenter could improve by having a single interface because half of the system is still in the legacy interface and many other elements are moved to the developer client. It would be good if there was a single interface for the end user and developers."
"We need another tool for monitoring. It would be easier if all the features were consolidated into one tool."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"It is scalable, but there can be performance issues with high data volume or traffic, especially during month ends."
