Magic xpa Application Platform vs. SAP Integration Suite

In our experience, the product performs really well when interfacing systems with ERP's through SQL server database tables, but we've even made some interfaces with the web service functionality included with the magic xpi integration platform. Also, we've made some SAP Business One - SAP Business One interfaces, for copying information from one company to another and even between two different ERP systems.

The case of the SAP Integration Suite shows outstanding capability in handling huge data, and especially when handling corporate portfolio data with multiple owners. But we have noticed that in the cases of moving data from the older banking system, it is necessary to further refine the system. It does an excellent job of the current credit scoring.

• The UI is really simple to use, you have source/destination mapping for the items.
• The scheduler gives you a lot of options when executing the models.
• The error handling is usually pretty good and the errors can be corrected fast.

• Broad Connectivity: SAP Integration Suite excels in connecting diverse systems, including SAP and non-SAP applications, databases, and third-party services.
• Pre-built Integrations and Templates:The suite provides a library of pre-built integrations and templates for common business scenarios.
• User-Friendly Design Tools:
• API Management:

• Although the scenarios may be online, the main service usually freezes and the processes can't transact any data. With a single restart of the service, the processes will be functioning again.
• The support for more applications would be nice, even though there is a nice number of them. Most of the main applications in the market are supported.
• The licensing for the software may be a little confusing; you can't buy individual licenses as they come in packages of four.

Incentivized

• Provide more pre-built integrations to use within SuccessFactors or other modules instead of everything having to be custom built
• Support is unable to provide advice on custom builds so you often have to engage a 3rd party partner
• Works best when you have the functional and technical teams working together. Otherwise, the system is too technical for a functional user to create integration and a technical user not always understand the functional perspective

SAP Integration Suite is very helpful to us in many ways to manage purchase procedures, stocks, and data of vendors and suppliers. Also, it helps to manage data for service providers. SAP Integration Suite has the tool to conduct training and evaluation. Unique features like the cloud can provide access from any place and by any device is very helpful.

Honestly, we have only used and evaluated magic xpi/xpa platforms because of the recommendation of our SAP Business One main supplier, who has previously used the platform for their developments. So far, we have no regrets with the acquisition of the platform and we are very happy with its performance.

SAP Integration Suite was already part of our SAP stack, part of Business Technology Platform, with out-of-the-box integration with S/4 HANA transactional and ERP system that we are using as our main back-end. Thus, we are achieving significant Total Cost Optimization benefits or running both solutions on the same platform, hosted on Azure cloud.

• The implementation time for this kind of projects has been greatly reduced.
• Certifying an In-House resource in the Magix xpi and xpa platforms is probably the best option, considering all of the projects that can be developed in the future without the need of an external consultant.
• The processes that have been automatized with the Magic xpi platform helped reduce human error and the time those processes took to finish.

• In the long run will enable us to undeploy our on premise solution
• As long as integration suite doesn't support all capabilities PO has complete migration is hard
• Will probably be cheaper than our on premise solution when we are completely migrated
