We performed a comparison between AWS Database Migration Service and SnapLogic based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The Schema Conversion Tool helps to covert the convertible objects and define the non-convertible objects"
"Scalable and stable solution for migrating databases to AWS, with valuable features such as parallel full load and continuous data replication."
"As the solution is on the cloud, we don't have to worry about the maintenance of software."
"If your infrastructure is already on Amazon, it simply makes the most sense to use a tool officially provided by them as an additional service, rather than having to rely on a third-party solution."
"Support is helpful."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"It's pretty useful when we need to migrate something big from a different type of database that AWS Data Migration Services supports."
"They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"What I found most valuable in SnapLogic is the ETL feature, particularly the Transform Snap Pack, for example, any kind of reading or writing on Transform Snaps. Other than that, all the third-party connectivity tools such as the SAP Snap Pack, Salesforce Snap Pack, Workday Snap Pack, even the ServiceNow Snap Pack, I find all those are pretty useful in SnapLogic."
"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."
"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution."
"Database Migration Service could be more integrated. I think that it makes sense to add integration to these functions. For example, AWS Glue has a feature called Orchestrator to create data flows, and that's more straightforward."
"Support could be more expedient. Right now I am waiting on support for an extension."
"The initial setup can be difficult for beginners in AWS Database Migration Service. You will need the training to complete it."
"We would like to see some improvement in the performance of large scale procedures, such as when we migrate from Oracle to csSQL."
"As a solution, the better thing is if more platforms come with direct compatibility, like connecting to different data sources. The basic problem I faced the most was while transferring and reading data from Excel. So, one time, I found that all the components I had declared in my scripts were able to take it. And after some patching happens, it is not able to support that. Again, we need to update the version of Excel. So, it's not like a plug-in type place where you have done the solution and are confident that it will work. So, this is an area of improvement."
"There are a set of complexities and challenges when a user wants to integrate AWS products with Microsoft products."
"The performance of data migration could be smoother."
"What needs improvement in AWS Database Migration Service is that it lacks a log file validation feature. If the solution could provide more details about a particular transaction, that would be helpful. The stability of AWS Database Migration Service for online CDC records also needs to be improved."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"The support is the most important improvement they could make."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"I would like to see more performance-related dashboards, ones that display the cost of a pipeline, for instance. Also, it would be helpful to have management dashboards for overseeing pipelines and connections."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky."
