If you want to connect, for example, a Sibyl, SQL, Oracle, or different products, we don't have to develop them from scratch. They are available, but if it's not, we can go into the marketplace and see if there's a connector there. Having the connector available reduces the amount of hard work needed. We only have to put the inputs and outputs. In some of the products, we use there is already integration available for ODI, which is helpful."
"It is an ETL tool, which does the extract, transform, and load."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it integrates well with almost all technologies currently being used in my company."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The scalability is great. It's one of the reasons we chose the solution."

"Data Services' best features are its robustness and plug-and-play integration with other SAP applications."
"ODI could improve by focusing on streamlining its features without unnecessary overhead."
"I would only point out some minor bugs or glitches in the development interface (ODI studio)."
"The interface of ODI could be improved. For example, navigating and finding functions can be difficult. For example, you have to know which step you need to go to look at where your job status is. The logical step is a bit complex compared to other tools. It's much easier to get a graphical view, but with ODI, it's graphical, plus you have to know all the other pieces that fit around it.

"Reverse engineering is complicated and challenging to manage."
"It lacks a suite of tools suitable for fully processing data and moving it into decision support warehouses."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is real-time integration. Currently, my company has a workaround to implement real-time integration, an area on which Oracle must focus more. Real-time integration should be easier in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI). Another area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is integration with more publishers and subscribers rather than just database integrations."
"The solution should offer more machine learning and automation."
"We would like the different tools offered within this solution to be available as standalone entities, rather than having to purchase the entire package when we only require a few features."
"Integration with other products could be improved."
"The migration of the solution between different environments is quite complex."
"Data Services SAP is lacking in sources and target databases compared to Informatica. SAP Data Services should have more connectivity."
"Source code control is another headache. When your source code base gets too large, managing the source code becomes cumbersome."
"The execution engines and processing engines have shortcomings and need improvements."
"Newer feature integration is lagging behind the company acquisitions and the product could do more to service a broader range of devices."
