It is stable and we did not have any issues with initial setup. I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version to support the wide range of sources available.
I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME) I have been using it for 6-7 months. There were no concerns with the stability. This product is very good from a stability…

Low-code integrations have automated workflows and save time across enterprise applications
They can enhance the error handling and debugging part. Troubleshooting complex pipeline failures can be time-consuming. We are spending a lot of time on error handling. More detailed error messages and root cause analysis tools can be added, which will definitely improve the developer experience. In the Ultra real-time integrations, we can monitor the last execution history of only 100 runs. That can be increased, which would be one of the platform improvements that can really be taken. However, they are doing very well because lots of ChatGPTs and AI assistants have been added in the last two years, which makes a very good effect. SnapLogic is the only platform that provides this kind of visibility to the developers. Anyone, even if they have low experience and are starting their IT careers, can directly jump in and learn SnapLogic. The documentation is very easy to learn. Anyone, even a layman, can refer to that documentation and go through its Snap-pack to understand what configuration has to be done to use this Snap-pack. This makes SnapLogic definitely exceptional in the market. You won't find such comprehensive documentation in other iPaaS tools. The draggable packs truly demonstrate its power in usability. Governance and security are also well in place in SnapLogic, but there are areas for improvement. They can add more granular role and permission controls that provide greater flexibility for large enterprises. For example, if you have to provide access to 70 users in one shot, that can be improved. More improvements in policy enforcement capabilities are possible as well. SnapLogic can improve the data lineage part to achieve better end-to-end visibility into data movement. Also, during validation, we can only see up to 2,000 records currently. They can increase that from 2,000 to 20,000. They can put more visibility on costs and resource visibility, with better reporting on platform usage, processing consumption, and cost optimization opportunities.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This product is extremely useful and better than building an in-house solution."
"There were no concerns with the stability. This product is very good from a stability perspective."
"Web based interface."
"We have been using it for ETL, it is very robust and easy to use."
"For data transfers and ETLs on Windows, this is a great product."
"SnapLogic has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to remove a big risk and cost in removing a legacy integration platform, and we have built the foundations to gain significant efficiencies in our integrations."
"SnapLogic has positively impacted our organization because over time, we have only started building more and more integrations within SnapLogic."
"Everything is very good; it's good for mapping for the company, we have a lot of use cases that we can apply to this solution, and they are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."
"SnapLogic takes products such as BizTalk and Dell Boomi to another level, and I think that's one of the things that has really helped people engage and work with the product."
"With SnapLogic, you can cut down the delivery times and send high volumes."
"One of the best features SnapLogic offers is its user-friendly interface."
"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."
"SnapLogic positively impacts my organization by allowing me to do more application development integration in less time."
 

Cons

"The areas which I think need to be improved are the transform and load steps."
"At the moment, we can't even use it for 1, since it keeps failing in our QA testing."
"I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME)."
"Technical support is an area which can definitely improve."
"I chose a rating of seven out of ten because I feel SnapLogic's AI can be substantially better in this day and age."
"Regarding improvements for SnapLogic, I observe that networking and security technology continue to evolve, but SnapLogic lacks the transit gateway feature."
"I don't think the support has better knowledge about technologies and tool support. There were lots of times when we had an issue, and it took me quite a long time to explain the problem. I feel like some of the support staff don't know their product well."
"One thing I do not like about SnapLogic is some of the pre-built snap packs. If I want to integrate with a new system, I have to pay to get access to those."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky, but for reasons that SnapLogic cannot always control."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"Sometimes they are very long and complex and we have to store those in the SQL Execute Snaps. It is a little difficult to work with the SQL text files in those Snaps because they do not have a lot of text editing capabilities."
"SnapLogic can be improved by generating SQL queries within SnapGPT, including the variables, as it would be very useful because lately, I have been using other AI tools such as Claude or ChatGPT to generate SQL queries."
