More SSIS Pros →

Cons
"An awesome improvement would be big data solutions, for example, implementing some kind of business intelligence or neural networks for artificial intelligence.""Co>Operating System would be improved with more integrations for less well-known technologies."

More Ab Initio Co>Operating System Cons →

"Sometimes when we want to publish to other types of databases it's not easy to publish to those databases. For example, the Jet Database Engine. Before the SSIS supported Jet Database Engine but nowadays it doesn't support the Jet Database Engine. We connect to many databases such as Access database, SparkPros databases and the other types of databases using Jet Database Engines now and SSIS now doesn't seem to support it in our databases.""I would also like to see full integration with our BI because then our full load of data will be available in our organization. They should incorporate an ATL process.""The performance of SSIS could improve when comparing it to Oracle Database.""SSIS doesn't have a very good user interface, but if you can work with it, it'll provide you with almost all of the functionality.""We would like the solution to be expanded so that it is available for other platforms than just Microsoft.""We have a stability problem because when something works, it works one time. The next time, it doesn't work.""The interface could use improvement, as well as the administrative tools. Jobs fail from time to time for different reasons. It's not a problem with Microsoft, or SSIS itself. The problems are external, but to find the problems and analyze them it takes too much time.""Tuning using this solution requires extensive expertise to improve performance."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Co>Operating System's pricing is on the expensive end since it tends to be used by big enterprises."
  • More Ab Initio Co>Operating System Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
  • "My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
  • "This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
  • "It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
  • "Based on my experience and understanding, Talend comes out to be a little bit expensive as compared to SSIS. The average cost of having Talend with Talend Management Console is around 72K per region, which is much higher than SSIS. SSIS works very well with Microsoft technologies, and if you have Microsoft technologies, it is not really expensive to have SSIS. If you have SQL Server, SSIS is free."
  • "We have an enterprise license for this solution."
  • "It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
  • "All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."

Both Informatica and SSIS support this functionality using different methodologies. In Informatica, every session can have more than one source and one or more destination connections.
