Snaplogic IIP - Integration tool with Ease of Use
1. It is very easy to use and provides much better user interface.
2. Imeplemention of the pipelines for any requirement is easy to achive.
3. Snaplogic provides loads of features and has list of snaps to chose from based on your requirement.
1. Using long queries to fetch redshfit data , it takes loads of time and some times fails in between abruptly.
2. For long running pipelines, we most of the time get Snaplex lost connection, which needs manual restart and takes lots of time and effort.
3. Sometimes debugging the failed instances takes lots of manual debugging time and gets hard to interpret the actual issue with the snaps.
Streamlines Data Integration Processes
Snaplogic - A rich integration platform allow everyone to contribute
Reusability and control have improved data integration processes with responsive support
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
I find the reusability and the snaps to be very valuable features. There are quite a lot of snaps that are pre-delivered and available for use. The level of control in terms of the granularity of process control is quite good.
I also like the whole child-parent pipeline feature; it allows me to break up a process into smaller pieces and then have one big pipeline that controls these smaller pipelines.
What needs improvement?
I am quite happy with the solution and do not have specific requirements at the moment. I tend to frequently communicate with SnapLogic to ask for additional features, and they have been responsive. While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used the solution for three or four years.
How are customer service and support?
I would rate customer service an eight and a half out of ten.

How was the initial setup?
For me, the initial setup is simple. I have used both an on-premises solution and the platform-as-a-service option, and both are quite straightforward.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I considered MuleSoft and found SnapLogic to be cheaper and their offering to be a lot less complex. There is not a lot of pricing, processing, the number of things, or other complicated aspects.
What other advice do I have?
I can recommend SnapLogic to other users and the product overall. Overall product rating is nine out of ten.

Achieves rapid results in data migration and has an intuitive user interface
What is our primary use case?
I utilize SnapLogic for data migration and data integration projects. I use it mainly as a middleware tool, working with a lot of SAP data. By transferring SAP data into more cost-effective databases, I can run analytics without the high cost associated with SAP provider analytics.
What is most valuable?
I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL. The interface is interactive, allowing me to quickly learn how to run pipelines and achieve production-ready results swiftly. This agility translates to cost savings, especially for smaller projects and proofs of concept, as less time and effort are needed to deliver results.
What needs improvement?
SnapLogic is doing well in evolving with the AI landscape. However, if the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy to learn for new users, it would be greatly beneficial.
Additionally, improving AI capabilities to be easily recognizable would enhance the user experience.

Although my use of SnapLogic has been intermittent, I have worked with it for close to seven years.

I would rate the stability of SnapLogic as nearly ten out of ten. It has shown to be robust and reliable.
