We performed a comparison between BizTalk Server and SAP Process Orchestration based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Business-to-Business Middleware solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of BizTalk Server is that it will turn XML into flexible transactions."
"Essentially, you can do whatever you like with these systems, and you do not have to take care about the scaling because if one server is overloaded, it just forwards the message to the next server, even if it were designated to a specific server. It weeds out the messages according to the load. If you want to scale it, you just add new servers."
"Compared to the current solutions I use, like Azure Logic Apps and other cloud services, BizTalk was far better and more reliable."
"The most valuable feature is its reliability and stability. The first version of BizTalk was released in 2000, and many companies still use it. It was stable until 2013 when we had support."
"BIzTalk's integration with Visual Studio is the most valuable feature of this product."
"I rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its integration with the banks. Its messaging and routing capabilities are good."
"We can handle a large number of messages without any issues, ensuring that everything runs smoothly."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are the standard APIs that we can use."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Process Orchestration is its flexibility in being able to build integrations with SAP systems and non-SAP systems."
"Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework."
"With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters."
"The product could be improved in monitoring, managing, and support functionalities."
"The deployment could be simplified."
"BizTalk lacks native cloud support. BizTalk doesn't offer in-built support for cloud. We need to use third-party adapters to connect it to cloud services."
"It's a complex product because you have many degrees of freedom to connect different parts together. Whether it's sensible or not, is up to you, but the machine does allow it. But because of the vast degrees of freedom, it's complex."
"BizTalk is in the past, Microsoft is not going to evolve it any further or add any new features."
"The product's deployment can be quicker"
"It's an on-premises system, requiring physical servers for deployment. This is different from Azure; you don't need any servers with Azure. If you have a subscription, you can do whatever you want. There are unit restrictions based on the environment (like non-production vs. production) in BizTalk. You need physical servers and databases. In Azure, those are not required – it's all in the cloud."
"BizTalk Server is an outdated legacy system that does not support messaging."
"The solution is not very scalable because it is at the end of its life."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
"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."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
