Snaplogic Experience
What do you like best about the product?
I like how I can collaborate with other users easily and share pipelines (unlike in Alteryx). I also appreciate the ease of setting up APIs to easily load, refresh data and run pipelines. Everything is very intuitive and support has been very helpful when it comes to resolving issues quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I struggle with debugging pipelines when it fails. Switching between organizations can also be quite slow. Setting up accounts and organizing files in each project space can also be cleaner and more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to extract and load data, lift and shift from different database sources into central repository. Transform data. I enjoy using the automated scheduled tasks
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would love to be able to do data profiling in snaplogic.
My Experiences With SnapLogic
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use in creating the pipelines. Relatively easy to learn if you are familiar with traditional programming languages such as Perl, C++, Python, etc. Also if you get in trouble, there is a very quick response from their help desk. My colleagues and I attended a one week in-house training session. I heartily recommend that this is the 1st step. Our instructor left with us the pipelines that we learned in class, so that made it easy to refer back to once we began our own projects. The collection of functions in the Snaps provided make it easy to configure the pipelines desired. In particular, the Mapper Snap has tremendous capabilities in shaping the data or applying functions of all types to achieve the variables that you need. The ability to validate the pipeline as you develop it makes this product a winner.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the more complex snap topics such XML formatting need additional information to make it easier to understand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
System Integration and Data Mining. Using SnapLogic it is much quicker to realize a prototype to show others if a concept works. Once you start working with and build your own library, it is very easy to configure the pipelines that you need. I have successfully used this product to create three new integrations and to replace an existing integration written in Perl. I've also developed adhoc pipelines to verify that the data flows are correct on legacy systems. One example of this is to verify the data flow from Peopelesoft to Microsoft Identity Management. I've even shown some of my colleagues how they can solve difficult problems such as extracting from Ellucian's Banner ERP to specific outbound systems with ease.
Snaplogic for All Data related activities
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to develop in short time, more connectors, wide application connectivity, easy automation , more dynamic features availability . easy migration, api integration was quite easy compare to other tools like talend. code repository in one place no need to pull code outside. faster search of components. wide administration , monitoring APIS. easy integration of other applications like tidal.
What do you dislike about the product?
no clear indication of IF ..ELSE feature, felt hard for dimensional model data population, not seen partition concept for better/parallel processing. Few snaps make data not to pass through mainly for DML activity snaps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cross platform data related activities, application integration and API services . Keeping everything in one place for ETL, ESB made much easier. Data load from other applications into HDFS, Hive, SQL Server, S3, FTP etc. Application integration for real time data processing from SFDC to SAP etc. connecting zendesk to jira, sfdc to jira, redshift. parsing of wide variety of files, excel, csv, txt, json etc. Using snaps shown some better performance while dealing large data sets. easy connectivity of one snap to other. can be developed our own exception handling process very easily. Looping /triggering multiple pipe lines at a time is very nice feature where we can control dynamic execution's. very less tools has given this feature for making etls more dynamic, we can also pass parameter values from one pipeline to other is very good. validation option helps us debugging instant .overall i like most of its feature to compare to other tools which i worked like informatica talend, SSIS.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
One solution for all data related activities.
New user but manage a team that uses SnapLogic frequently.
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity and reusability. We have some snaps that we keep reusing over and over for different purposes.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cryptic error messages. The error messages can sometimes be way off base in terms of straightforward - where the problem is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have over 75 different integrations with our main system. Our main system is on an Oracle DB platform and some of the systems that we integrate with are on a SQL Server platform. Over the last several years, Oracle has been, more and more, not playing nice with SQL Server, getting disconnect errors, etc. causing processes to ABEND. We have not experienced any of these problems with SnapLogic. Over time, we are moving over many of our integrated processes over to the SnapLogic platform in order to avoid all the issues we experience with Oracle playing nice with SQL Server.
Fair learning curve to get up and running, but once you get it there is so much you can do.
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility and granularity of configurations when it comes to building pipelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Takes a while to really understand it if you're not familiar with ETL, a lot of configuration settings on each snap.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ETL, creation of transactions, data cleansing. Things we would not be able to do without an iPaas tool. We use it for Marketing Technology purposes. Syncing data between tools in our stack as well as building reports and data warehousing.
Takes the Pain Out of Integrations
What do you like best about the product?
It does a great job displaying the data in between each step of the integration, which really speeds up troubleshooting.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some UI pieces they can improve, but honestly the few things we have reported as issues have already been fixed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it to replace ETL tools for data ingestion. We have found that routing our ETL, integrations and automations through SnapLogic allows us to leverage the scheduling and monitoring capabilities in one place across a multitude of SaaS applications, integrations and ETL/ELT.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend you do the same extensive evaluation we did. We analyzed cost, features, company direction, ability to scale etc across several iPaaS providers. We went through a POC with 4 of those. We included stakeholders from multiple business units and opened the POCs to citizen integrators across the company.
Fast and reliable integration tool
What do you like best about the product?
Snaplogic is very reliable for its services. It also improves performance by by providing additional tools like ultra task. It caches the data to improve response time. Customer support from snaplogic team is very good as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snaplogic UI loading time is quiet high. Pipeline representation on UI can be improved. Also, the major concern for using snaplogic is CPU requirement which is very high and that increases the infrastructure cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Initially my company was using activemq for integration purpose which had a lot of disadvantages when it comes to reliability. To replace it we implemented snaplogic. As snaplogic provides UI, it becomes easy to manage all the tasks. We have also used feedmaster which is offered by snaplogic to increase the performance.
