Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Most of the functions are very straightforward, like the data model, mapping, package, and load plan. Thus, a new user could get started very fast."
"Besides loading data, we do most of our transformations in ODI."
"ODI's best features are customization, integration with other versioning tools, and the ability to define new knowledge modules."
"It's scalable."
"The installation of the client ODI Studio is easy."
"The CAEM is very useful in its modularity and portability."
"Integration with all systems is easy with Oracle Data Integrator, and it is easy to use. I have not used any other product, but with Oracle Data Integrator, we can easily connect to an ERP system, an SAP system, or a cloud application."
"It is an ETL tool, which does the extract, transform, and load."
"Data Services' best features are its robustness and plug-and-play integration with other SAP applications."
"Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable. It is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools. It has very good integration with SAP, but it also has the capabilities to connect to other systems. We find it very helpful and stable."
"The feature of SAP Data Services has enhanced our company's business processes because we are able to run around 800 jobs in areas like data extraction and transaction objects."
"The fact that it's built on SQL, it makes it easy to write code. The database and the connection are quite smooth."

"We can extract data at a table level, extract data at the ETL level, and we can extract data at an ODP level."
"The reporting on the data, even from third-party software, is very good."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities."
"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. You have to think about the logical and physical aspects."
"Stability could be improved because some operators have issues."
"Overall the product is fine, but sometimes its reports unknown errors while we compile ETL scripts."
"The solution lacks some functions and features."
"If there was an add-on tool to hide the performance issues and solve them for me, then I might be interested in that as it would provide me value."
"There are certain things where it can be improved. Initial solution setup seems a bit complex at the start, it should be improved because it becomes bit tough for a novice to get started on this. Sometimes error description is not helpful to understand the problem it gives some generic type of errors which are at times not that helpful to understand the underlying root cause of the issue."
"At present, when multiple steps are executed in parallel in the load plan and errors occur, the error handling mechanism does not function correctly."
"The initial setup is complex, especially if you also have to install a console."
"The initial setup is complex."
"There should be some kind of enhancement that can be done on the admin side of certain sites where we can assign the roles and responsibilities. We should be able to control who is using the tool and how."
"With SAP Data Services, the problem arises when I try to connect to Azure Databricks."
"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."
"Newer feature integration is lagging behind the company acquisitions and the product could do more to service a broader range of devices."
"In the future, Data Services should offer a cloud version."
"An area for improvement in SAP Data Services could involve making the product more accessible to non-technical end-users."
"The solution should offer more machine learning and automation."
