We performed a comparison between Informatica PowerExchange and SAP Process Orchestration based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The user interface and user experience are perfectly all right."
"Provides a significant amount of control over the landscape and overall implementation."
"The agentless RCDC enablement through PowerExchange is a great idea and has worked very well so far."
"This product is easy to install and it can be done in a few hours."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"Overall, it's a good tool. It's currently number one on the market. It pretty much has all the necessary capabilities to pull the incremental data from the source system, technically speaking."
"It is a scalable and versatile solution."
"The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"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 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."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration."
"The connectivity with T24 core banking could be improved."
"The solution could be made more user-friendly. The configurations are also quite difficult."
"Real-time has not been enhanced that much over the past few years. There has not been as many features added like they did before."
"Integration with the largest number of databases and other systems would be important."
"V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working."
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue."
"The solution needs better integration with other tools."
"They should make it quick and easy for use of citizen data integration or for people or integrators developing at the customer side. They could be development teams within the business team. For them, the product owners can consider making it a little bit more seamless and a little bit more democratized."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"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."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
"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."
"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."
