"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 solution offers very good documentation and manuals to assist with understanding the solution.""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.""The solution is easy to use.""The solution's technical support is good.""The solution is stable.""The initial setup was straightforward."

Cons
"SAP Process Orchestration could improve from an API standpoint. This is not an API management tool, which is one of its drawbacks. However, SAP has released an SAP Cloud Platform Integration which has all of the features, such as API management along with process integration to replace what they had previously.""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.""We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters.""Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use.""The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life.""The older version of the solution will no longer be supported.""This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."

More SAP Process Orchestration Cons →

"We would like to see some development in the visualization aspect of this solution, as they can currently only be configured in the cloud, which limits us to one endpoint. It would be helpful if this could be integrated with other tools.""We encountered difficulties connecting the special data sets, as the post data set did not contain any shared columns, making it difficult to establish a connection between the data sets.""The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved.""The Text Area feature needs to be more user-friendly. It is a little clunky to use, and it is difficult to consistently format text.""I would like to see the visualization library in this solution expanded, so that I can increase what I can offer to our clients.""When you do the data loading, it is slow.""The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge.""The way TIBCO Spotfire is designed, in my opinion, is the reason why it lags a bit, especially compared to other BI tools like Qlik."
