Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I enjoy the ease of use for the backend JSON generator, the deployment solution, and the template management.""The data factory agent is quite good and programming or defining the value of jobs, processes, and activities is easy.""For developers that are very accustomed to the Microsoft development studio, it's very easy for them to complete end-to-end data integration.""Microsoft supported us when we planned to provision Azure Data Factory over a private link. As a result, we received excellent support from Microsoft.""This solution will allow the organisation to improve its existing data offerings over time by adding predictive analytics, data sharing via APIs and other enhancements readily.""It is beneficial that the solution is written with Spark as the back end.""An excellent tool for pipeline orchestration.""One advantage of Azure Data Factory is that it's fast, unlike SSIS and other on-premise tools. It's also very convenient because it has multiple connectors. The availability of native connectors allows you to connect to several resources to analyze data streams."

"We particularly like the data angling feature of this solution. This gives us the ability to work on data transformations, join files, and carry out other data preparation tasks all in a single tool.""It's scalable.""The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product.""One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis.""The most valuable features of TIBCO Spotfire are visualization. It's very nice, clear, and, flexible. You can analyze many data types and the user interface is very good.""The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized.""I appreciate Spotfire's range of visualization options, advanced analytics features, and seamless integration with other TIBCO products.""Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."

Cons
"Some of the optimization techniques are not scalable.""A room for improvement in Azure Data Factory is its speed. Parallelization also needs improvement.""There is no built-in function for automatically adding notifications concerning the progress or outline of a pipeline run.""Currently, smaller businesses face a disadvantage in terms of pricing, and reducing costs could address this issue.""The performance could be better. It would be better if Azure Data Factory could handle a higher load. I have heard that it can get overloaded, and it can't handle it.""When working with AWS, we have noticed that the difference between ADF and AWS is that AWS is more customer-focused. They're more responsive compared to any other company. ADF is not as good as AWS, but it should be. If AWS is ten out of ten, ADF is around eight out of ten. I think AWS is easier to understand from the GUI perspective compared to ADF.""Azure Data Factory should be cheaper to move data to a data center abroad for calamities in case of disasters.""Data Factory's performance during heavy data processing isn't great."

More Azure Data Factory Cons →

"Print capability and trigger-based events.""The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved.""We encountered difficulties connecting the special data sets, as the post data set did not contain any shared columns, making it difficult to establish a connection between the data sets.""The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier.""When you do the data loading, it is slow.""One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support.""We would like an easier way to get the product to the cloud. Right now, we have the on-premise version, and we would like to find a way to make it easier to migrate it over to the cloud.""The design of the UI could be improved."
