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."In SSIS, the scope is not only to handle ETL challenges, but it will allow us to do so many other tasks, such as DBA activities, scripting, calling any .exe or scripts, etc."
"It's something I needed for bulk imports. I'm not a big fan of it, but I haven't seen anything better."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the fast insert and fuzzy logic matching."
"It has the ability to be deployed into the cloud through Data Factory, and run completely as a software as a service in the cloud."
"The workflow features have been very valuable. You can have automated workflows and all the steps are controlled. The workflow functionality of integration services is excellent."
"The performance is better than doing it in some alternative ways. We don't have to worry about so much manual work."
"The most valuables features are the relatively short learning curve, and the automation capabilities provided through the BIML add-in for SSDT."
"The initial setup of this solution is very straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is the metadata generated code."
"This is a fantastically robust DW tool that will make you at least 10 times faster in producing a DW."
"It has a built-in automatic scheduling environment."
"The tool supports multiple target update methods."
"I found the initial setup very easy."
"Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions."
"I like the data vault implementations."
"Support is absolutely excellent, efficient, and timely."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."
"Microsoft should offer an on-premises support warranty for those using that deployment. They seem to be withdrawing from on-premises options."
"SSIS is stable, but extensive ETL data processing can have some performance issues."
"It needs more integration tools, so you can connect to different sources."
"Future releases should improve the data lineage, as it currently is not good."
"We In upgrading SSIS, we encountered challenges fixing SQL Server and performance issues, including problems during a failover in our data warehouse."
"Performance could be better."
"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."
"Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box."
"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."
"The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it."
"Customization could be better."
"The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application."
