We performed a comparison between Denodo and IBM InfoSphere DataStage based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."It is a very stable solution."
"Denodo makes it easy to export data as a service or data link to other services."
"The most valuable feature is Data Catalogs."
"It allows a lot of traceability and you can decide what data you want to collect"
"Denodo is lightweight in terms of how it leads you to combine your discrete data systems at one spot."
"Access to numerous forums and internet information."
"While we may not be using all the features of Denodo at this time, we have found the data virtualization features to be very useful in helping us connect our data sources together, bringing all our data into one platform."
"The data abstraction is the most valuable feature."
"The data lineage report can be filtered for reporting. The reports are user-friendly and take less time to find what you need."
"Highly customizable: Allowing you to handle multiple data latencies (scheduled batch, on-demand, and real-time) in the same job."
"DataStage works better with Linux operating systems when the application services are hosted on Linux system equipment, but it's powerful on Windows too."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to incorporate very complex business rules in Data Stage."
"The most valuable feature is the product's versatility to inject data."
"It is quite useful and powerful."
"The most valuable feature is the data integration for data warehousing."
"The concept of integration is a valuable feature of the product."
"We can't scale it to meet digital requirements."
"The integration could use improvement, it's a lot of non-speed line processes that we have discovered, in the country. The configurations could use a lot more improvement."
"The git configuration really should be improved."
"Denodo currently integrates with ChatGPT, but the ability to manage and utilize them directly within Denodo would be a significant improvement."
"Documentation needs to be improved"
"The dropdown menus feel antiquated to me, and the administrative portals need improvement."
"The solution should have its own acceleration technology."
"Performance management could be improved."
"We would be happy to see in next versions the ability to return several parameters from jobs. Now, jobs can return just one parameter. If they could return several parameters, that would be great."
"Their web interface is good but the on-prem sites are outdated. The solution could also be improved if they could integrate the data pipeline scheduling part of their interface."
"What needs improvement in IBM InfoSphere DataStage is its pricing. The pricing for the solution is higher than its competitors, so a lot of the clients my company has worked with prefer other tools over IBM InfoSphere DataStage because of the high price tag. Another area for improvement in the solution stems from a lot of new types of databases, for example, databases in the cloud and big data have become available, and IBM InfoSphere DataStage is working on various connectors for different data sources, but that still isn't up-to-date, meaning that some connectors are missing for modern data sources. The latest version of IBM InfoSphere DataStage also has a complex architecture, so my team faced frequent outages and that should be improved as well."
"The setup is extremely difficult."
"So, there are some features that are missing. If I compare DataStage to Talend, Talend allows you to write custom code in Java or use these tools in your applications as well if you are building a job application. But in DataStage, it does not allow you to write custom code for any component."
"The response time from support is slow and needs to be improved."
"Currently lacking virtualization ability."
"The troubleshooting guide is very bad."
