We performed a comparison between IBM InfoSphere DataStage and Oracle Data Integrator Cloud Service 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 product is a stable and powerful data management solution that can run in parallel mode for enhanced speed."
"When we have needed help from the IBM team, they were helpful. Our company is a premium partner so we get fast responses."
"The ETL tools are probably the most valuable feature. It has an IBM tool, a friendly UI and it makes things more comfortable."
"The most valuable feature is the product's versatility to inject data."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"The most valuable feature for our data processing needs is IBM InfoSphere DataStage's capability to handle ETL tasks with large record volumes."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to transfer information via notes."
"As a data integration platform, it is easy to use. It is quite robust and useful for volumetric analysis when you have huge volumes of data. We have tested it for up to ten million rows, and it is robust enough to process ten million rows internally with its parallel processing. Its error logging mechanism is far simpler and easier to understand than other data integration tools. The newer version of InfoSphere has the data catalog and IDC lineage. They are helpful in the easy traceability of columns and tables."
"Oracle Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"The solution is easy to manage and offers good integration. You can run all the tasks one by one which is really helpful, and pick the day and time to do so."
"The data is stored in the cloud, making it easy to download data simultaneously into multiple smaller servers, effectively downsizing the process."
"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"Having a single vendor supporting the entire suite of applications."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes integration faster."
"The most valuable thing to me is its simplicity. A person with zero knowledge can also develop the integration without having extensive technology knowledgebase. They can also work on creating their own integration."
"It would be great if they can include some basic version of data quality checking features."
"Reduced cost would allow more customers to choose the product. It's quite expensive in relation to the cost of other similar solutions."
"In the future, I would like to see more integration with cloud technologies."
"Its documentation is not up to the mark. While building APIs, we had a lot of problems trying to get around it because it is not very user-friendly. We tried to get hold of API documentation, but the documentation is not very well thought out. It should be more structured and elaborate. In terms of additional features, I would like to see good reporting on performance and performance-tuning recommendations that can be based on AI. I would also like to see better data profiling information being reported on InfoSphere."
"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 documentation and in-application help for this solution need to be improved, especially for new features."
"The setup is extremely difficult."
"DataStage is quite expensive. It is too hard to find a consultant using DataStage in Turkey."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"Bulk uploading can be a problem when you hit the upper limit."
"This is an expensive solution compared to other products on the market."
"It can be made much easier for users. They should be allowed to easily monitor the data extraction and flow, allowing them to observe real-time data flow within the software, making the process straightforward."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
"I would like to see different cloud adapters or connectors in case of integration. When you have Oracle to Oracle, they are good. They have really good connectors, but if it is a different ERP, like Obsidian, that is where they are faced with problems in OIC."
