We performed a comparison between SSIS, Talend Data Management Platform, and TIBCO BusinessWorks based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration."
"Built in reports show package execution and messages. Logging can also be customized so only what is needed is logged. There is also an excellent logging replacement called BiXpress that provides both historical and real-time monitoring which is more efficient and much more robust than the built-in logging capabilities. And none of this requires custom coding to make it useful unlike many other ETL tools."
"Its compatibility with Microsoft products has been very valuable to our company. It fits well within the architecture."
"It's something I needed for bulk imports. I'm not a big fan of it, but I haven't seen anything better."
"The ability of SSIS to transform and transport data is extremely valuable to me. It allows for intelligent extraction and manipulation of data during the process. Improved error handling would enhance ETL processes further. I haven't directly utilized the data flow components but they seem capable of supporting complex data integration needs."
"It's already very user-friendly and has a good dashboard."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is that you can take data from other servers which are not MS SQL Server or Oracle."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is that it can handle real complex transformations."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"The availability of connectors is great."
"The solution is very user-friendly and easy to understand."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language"
"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
"The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component."
"I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV."
"It is very stable. It is a market leader, and it has connectors to many of the legacy systems. It also has enterprise cloud connectors."
"The most valuable feature is the low-code platform."
"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with."
"XML to JSON transformations, out-of-the-box, helps to build REST services."
"It is a very robust system."
"The most valuable features are the stability and the time to market."
"It is a seamless and sophisticated tool."
"It is user friendly, it's not complex."
"I would like to see more standard components out of the box, such as SFTP, and Data Compression components."
"The solution could improve by having quicker release updates."
"We're in the process of switching to Informatica, and we need to work out data lineage and data profiling and to improve the quality of our data. SSIS, however, is not that compatible with Informatica. We managed to connect it to Informatica Metadata Manager, but we don't get good lineage, so we have to redo all our ETLs using the Informatica process in order to accept the proper data lineage."
"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."
"The security could be improved, as it is more important in our context."
"Improvement as per customer requirements."
"Sometimes we need to connect to AWS to get additional data sources, so we have to install some external LAN and not a regular RDBMS. We need external tools to connect. It would be great if SSIS included these tools. I'd also like some additional features for row indexing and data conversion."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"Performance and speed could be improved."
"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."
"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."
"I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced."
"I would like to sync a project and do an upload from that current version, and then from GitLab, be able to download the latest one."
"Once you get past the basic tools, it gets pretty complicated."
"The product must enhance the data quality."
"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."
"This solution's cloud could be improved. I don't know whether it was because we didn't have the internal expertise or if it was the product itself, but since they came later—I think only two or three years into the cloud—after many other iPaaS that had been in the cloud for longer, I feel that maybe they haven't matured in terms of the cloud."
"The Business Studio tool can be improved, which is the tool for designing the processes. Improving the Business Studio tool will make this solution more stable. It has a steep learning curve, and it is pretty tough to learn."
"Technical support is average. It's not the best."
"Scaling with the solution is costly because if we need to scale up, we have to buy more memory. That means more money. Solutions like Camel or Pulsar come with built-in options to scale horizontally, vertically, region-wide or country-wide."
"The cost has room for improvement."
"There is room for improvement on the learning side."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks could be improved with cloud support."
"The cost of this product is too expensive for smaller companies or those with a small number of integrations."
