SnapLogic

Most bang for your buck for an IPaaS solution

Commentaires : We have been using Snaplogic since past 3+ years now and have been quite impressed with their offerings and functionality. What started initially as a tool to integrate few disparate DB's has now culminated into an enterprise wide software for all our non-application data integrations. They provide good support and can work out bugs on an as needed/priority basis. Sometimes, its a pain because your work is impacted or delayed but for most of the time they provide you a workaround just for your org to help keep the things moving. Having the ability to build template and quickly integrate different Data sources has been a major game changer for us.

Avantages :

Ease of use The UI has different shapes, color, size to easily categorize and help you search and pick what fits and what doesn't to complete your workflow Have developed a predictive ML(Machine learning) based app (called IRIS) within the designer to help developers identify which snap to use next Has the option to use their cloud processors or use native In-house servers to process your data Flexible and customized pricing Have connectors for most source systems out there

Inconvénients :

Not able to connect to every source available out there. Missing quite a few. could be under development. Enterprise support is good but can be much better Need to purchase different snap packs for different DB's or sources Not all languages are supported. Have basic support for Python

Best iPaaS for multiple Data Sources and Clients

Commentaires : I really feel that they can improve their UI and issue resolution process. Apart from the data transfer, the site also has a well designed workflow builder that makes it easy to create efficient pipelines based on the requirements of the client.

Avantages :

SnapLogic was the core technology in our ecosystem as it handled the data transfer from our clients to our local servers. It had automation and workflows that would take care of the data that was gathered from the users every day. It provided an easy well-integrated service that rarely broke during busy hours.

Inconvénients :

One of the common issues that we faced was errors in the data transfer due to a glitch in the pipeline or when bad data was found in the batch. It would lead to long delays that took a couple of hours of the support and dev teams.

Makes for a centralized ETL solution

Commentaires : We use snap logic as part of our ETL process for feeding data into our CMDB from disparate sources. This allows for an easy to track source for data loads.

Avantages :

Allows for easy tracking of feeds into a system. Easier firewall rules allow for more robust integrations. Lots of built-in integrations.

Inconvénients :

The learning curve is not difficult per se as it is quite graphical but until you get used to it it can be a little daunting.

An intuitive cloud based integration product

Commentaires : Overall, it was an amazing experience with Snaplogic. From a capability perspective, the product was amazing. Being early adopters, whatever hurdles we came across, they were all addressed by the support team.

Avantages :

- Easy to use and easy to learn - 3 based portals, namely designer, manager and monitor which makes the overall management of the product easy - Vast number of pre-built connectors that are available with the product, some of them need separate subscription though. This makes the overall integration much faster to deliver - Being completely hosted in the cloud, it scales well as needed

Inconvénients :

- I wish product more options to authenticate and authorize integrated applications - I wish product had some kind of a variable that lives beyond the execution of a request. This is typically necessary in case where downstream system is secured with a short-lived dynamic token and we have to reuse a token until its expiry

Good product for integration

Avantages :

Ease of integration, Wide range of ETL features and integration connectors with different APIs and platform, Ease of debugging

Inconvénients :

Limit in specific connectors, Limited history tracking
