Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework.""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.""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 monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced.""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 a scalable solution.""The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use.""Process Orchestration fulfils the need for middleware to mediate types of connectivity."

"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done.""SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience.""SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy.""It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."

Cons
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them.""The solution needs to move to the cloud.""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 solution could be more scalable.""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.""Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information.""SAP needs to improve a lot in terms of the orchestration part so that more adapters can be provided to users, which are areas where the solution has downsides.""The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."

"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly.""Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see.""There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support.""The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."
