Pros
"SSIS is an easy way to do data integration from various data sources. It doesn't matter whether it's a database, flat files, XML, or Web API. It can talk to the and join them all together.""Its compatibility with Microsoft products has been very valuable to our company. It fits well within the architecture.""The initial setup was easy.""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 setup was easy. All Microsoft products are easy to set up.""The UI is very user-friendly.""The script component is very powerful, things that you cannot normally do, is feasible through C#.""The solution is stable."

More SSIS Pros →

"XML to JSON transformations, out-of-the-box, helps to build REST services.""The solution is very scalable. It can handle a lot. We have encryption plus integration servers running on that platform currently.""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 OSGI console is available to debug different issues and get low level informations on the applications development, like bundle, dependencies, etc.""The initial setup of TIBCO BusinessWorks was straightforward since we have used the solution in our organization for a long time.""The most valuable part of the solution is the ease-of-use and ease of deployment.""Good performance and reliability.""The high availability, tolerance, and load balancing features are top-notch. Its scalability features are also pretty cool."

"It's easy to manage and support the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem.""The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy."

More Unifi Pros →

Cons
"We have issues with SSIS connectors while extracting data from Excel sources.""The performance of this solution is not as good as other tools in the market.""SSIS can improve by the minimum code requirements in stored procedures and exporting data is difficult. They could make it easier, it should be as easy as it is to import data.""Improvement as per customer requirements.""Improving the login procedure would make our reporting easier on monitoring our ETL processes.""A change in the metadata source cripples the whole ETL process, requiring each module to be manually reopened.""It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life.""I come from a coding background and this tool is graphically based. Sometimes I think it's cumbersome to do mapping graphically. If there was a way to provide a simple script, it would be helpful and make it easier to use."

More SSIS Cons →

"TIBCO BusinessWorks could be improved with cloud support.""The cost of the solution has room for improvement.""The cost of this product is too expensive for smaller companies or those with a small number of integrations.""The container-based image is too large and this makes auto-scaling difficult.""A possible improvement could be to give the capability to use different profiles for each AppNode when an application is deployed on an AppSpace.""I'd like to see a new cloud approach in the next release. They need to work on integrations, stability and management issues on their cloud platform.""Could be more user friendly in the development area.""The communication protocols could be improved."

More TIBCO BusinessWorks Cons →

"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location.""There are issues with certain Apple devices."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
  • "My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
  • "This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
  • "It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
  • "Based on my experience and understanding, Talend comes out to be a little bit expensive as compared to SSIS. The average cost of having Talend with Talend Management Console is around 72K per region, which is much higher than SSIS. SSIS works very well with Microsoft technologies, and if you have Microsoft technologies, it is not really expensive to have SSIS. If you have SQL Server, SSIS is free."
  • "We have an enterprise license for this solution."
  • "It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
  • "All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."
  • More SSIS Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."
  • "It is a bit expensive for medium-sized companies. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The existing licensing will not work because the product platform itself is different."
  • "Its price policy has changed quite a lot in the last two years. It was extremely expensive previously. Nowadays, you can buy a license for BusinessWorks for €2000. Looking at what you get in return in terms of support, TIBCO community, and stability, it is fairly reasonable. It is not too expensive."
  • "I think BusinessWorks is more expensive compared to other products. We have the ELA, so at least we have some sort of bargain or discount with that. But for a start-up, it's very expensive compared to other ESBs."
  • "Licensing scheme is too rigid"
  • "I don't have the prices of the products, but I know that TIBCO is not a cheap solution. I think that this solution is more suitable for large companies because I don't think that small- or medium-sized companies would have the money for this solution. WSO2 has the community version for free, so many of the smaller companies can use it. I'm not sure what the prices are for support, though, so I suppose the support for WSO2 is not cheap either."
  • "The solution is too expensive. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there, particularly because there are so many open-source competitors on the market. I don't know the exact numbers, however."
  • "I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten."

  • "There is no license. The solution is free."

    Technology has made it easier for businesses to organize and manipulate data to get a clearer picture of what’s going on with their business. Notably, ETL tools have made managing huge amounts of data significantly easier and faster, boosting many organizations’ business intelligence operations There are many third-party vendors offering ETL solutions, but two of the most popular are PowerCenter Informatica and Microsoft SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services). Each technology has its advantages but there are also similarities on how they carry out the extract-transform-load processes and only differ in terminologies. If you’re in the process of choosing ETL tools and PowerCenter Informatica and Microsoft SSIS made it to your shortlist, here is a short comparative discussion detailing the differences between the two, as well as their benefits. Package Configuration Most enterprise data integration projects would require the capacity to develop a solution in one platform and test and deploy it in a separate environment without having to manually change the established workflow. In order to achieve this seamless movement between two environments, your ETL technology should allow the dynamic update of the project’s properties using the content or a parameter file or configuration. Both Informatica and SSIS support this functionality using different methodologies. In Informatica, every session can have more than one source and one or more destination connections. There are… Read more →
