"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is very easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is that API Gateway is extremely flexible for any feature, such as connecting to Active Directory to pull the users and their authentication information. There are three ways to connect to Active Directory, and the reason for this is that the computing environments of our customers are very different. Every feature in API Gateway has got multiple methodologies for accomplishing those tasks, which is important because customers are constantly changing their security models, IT models, networks, etc. API Gateway is very flexible. It is not a one size fits all sort of situation where it is very rigid, and you can only use these pull-down menus, and that's all it ever does. It is much more open than that. It can give you fabulous reports on your users, usage, security issues, and the data sets that are going through there. You'll suddenly have visibility on the movement of data within or between your organization and other organizations. The other thing is that you're connecting API to API, which is machine to machine. The things that were done manually in an Excel spreadsheet before exchanging data through email are now done machine to machine and server to server. It speeds up the velocity of your business."
"The product is robust."
"It's extremely consistent."
"The security of the agent that is installed on-premises is very good."
"Data Factory's best features include its data source connections, GUI for building data pipelines, and target loading within Azure."
"The two most valuable features of Azure Data Factory are that it's very scalable and that it's also highly reliable."
"The scalability of the product is impressive."
"It makes it easy to collect data from different sources."
"The most valuable feature is the ease in which you can create an ETL pipeline."
"The overall performance is quite good."
"The product must improve its visibility and scalability."
"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is an expensive solution."
"Because it is so flexible, you really need someone who knows Axway Gateway or has been through the training and is certified. Just because you know APIs doesn't mean you're going to walk into that API Gateway and understand what to click on. If you're going to get something done quickly, you need to find an engineer from a company who has some experience with it. It is easy to learn, but if you're doing on-the-job training, it is going to take you longer to get your project accomplished."
"The most important point to improve is the capability to deploy in large enterprises."
"Currently, our company requires a monitoring tool, and that isn't available in Azure Data Factory."
"The thing we missed most was data update, but this is now available as of two weeks ago."
"The initial setup is not very straightforward."
"We require Azure Data Factory to be able to connect to Google Analytics."
"We are too early into the entire cycle for us to really comment on what problems we face. We're mostly using it for transformations, like ETL tasks. I think we are comfortable with the facts or the facts setting. But for other parts, it is too early to comment on."
"The user interface could use improvement. It's not a major issue but it's something that can be improved."
"Snowflake connectivity was recently added and if the vendor provided some videos on how to create data then that would be helpful."
"For some of the data, there were some issues with data mapping. Some of the error messages were a little bit foggy. There could be more of a quick start guide or some inline examples. The documentation could be better."
