"We In upgrading SSIS, we encountered challenges fixing SQL Server and performance issues, including problems during a failover in our data warehouse."
"It would be nice if you could run SSIS on other environments besides Windows."
"The interface could use improvement, as well as the administrative tools. Jobs fail from time to time for different reasons. It's not a problem with Microsoft, or SSIS itself. The problems are external, but to find the problems and analyze them it takes too much time."
"Performance could be better."
"It needs more integration tools, so you can connect to different sources."
"There are a lot of things that Microsoft could improve in relation to SSIS. One major problem we faced was when attempting to move some Excel files to our SQL Server. The Excel provider has a limitation that prevents importing more than 255 columns from a particular Excel file to the database. This restriction posed a significant issue for us."
"SSIS can improve in handling different data sources like Salesforce connectivity, Oracle Cloud's connectivity, etc."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
"We got the product via a reseller, and the support from the reseller has been less than desirable."
"The learning curve is a little steep at first."
"In terms of improvement, it would be better if it adapted quicker to open standards. It took a while for API specification before the last version was available. The spec of version two was rather quick."
"This solution could be improved by offering subscription based licensing."
"Other products have been using AI and cloud enhancements, but webMethods Integration Server is still lagging in that key area."
"Business monitoring (BAM) needs improvement because the analytics and prediction module very often has performance problems."
"The product needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."
"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."
