More SAS Data Integration Server Pros →

"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot.""It is a stable solution.""The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution.""It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase.""They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements.""I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature. I also found its automation feature valuable. It can be used for automating manual activities. It can be used as a middleware for certain transactional data processing and minimal datasets and ETL activities.""SnapLogic is a great platform for establishing integrations among various systems or patterns by using any kind of interface. If something is not supported by predefined snaps – snaps are connectors in SnapLogic – you can create them (custom snaps) or write a script.""SnapLogice is a low-code development tool."

Cons
"The transform tool has limited access. They should make it more flexible.""So I would like to see improved integration with other software.""The initial setup of SAS Data Integration Server was complex."

More SAS Data Integration Server Cons →

"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use.""We'd like zero downtime in the future.""One area for improvement in SnapLogic is the transparency in the flow of data. It needs to have more transparency. Right now, users only have a preview option at the end of any job flow, so at the end of any Snap Pack, there is a data preview option that lets you review the data and see how it's moving. What would make the solution better is more debugging and more access to change data from the preview panel or more functionality in terms of the preview option.""SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up.""The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that.""It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps.""One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping.""The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
