We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This solution will allow the organisation to improve its existing data offerings over time by adding predictive analytics, data sharing via APIs and other enhancements readily.""Microsoft supported us when we planned to provision Azure Data Factory over a private link. As a result, we received excellent support from Microsoft.""Allows more data between on-premises and cloud solutions""The solution has a good interface and the integration with GitHub is very useful.""The two most valuable features of Azure Data Factory are that it's very scalable and that it's also highly reliable.""It has built-in connectors for more than 100 sources and onboarding data from many different sources to the cloud environment.""The data mapping and the ability to systematically derive data are nice features. It worked really well for the solution we had. It is visual, and it did the transformation as we wanted.""The solution includes a feature that increases the number of processors used which makes it very powerful and adds to the scalability."

"Qlik Compose is good enough. It is user-friendly and intuitive.""One of the most valuable features of this tool is its automation capabilities, allowing us to design the warehouse in an automated manner. Additionally, we can generate Data Lifecycle Policies (DLP) reports and efficiently implement updates and best practices based on proven design patterns.""One of the most valuable features was the ability to integrate multiple source systems that mainly used structured IDBMS versions.""It is a scalable solution.""There were many valuable features, such as extracting any data to put in the cloud. For example, Qlik was able to gather data from SAP and extract SAP data from the platforms.""As long as you pick the solution that best fits with your requirements, you won't find that performance is a problem. It's good.""The most valuable is its excellence as a graphical data representation tool and the versatility it offers, especially with drill-down capabilities.""It's a stable solution."

Cons
"The deployment should be easier.""The product's technical support has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required.""A room for improvement in Azure Data Factory is its speed. Parallelization also needs improvement.""The speed and performance need to be improved.""The solution can be improved by decreasing the warmup time which currently can take up to five minutes.""The thing we missed most was data update, but this is now available as of two weeks ago.""The performance could be better. It would be better if Azure Data Factory could handle a higher load. I have heard that it can get overloaded, and it can't handle it.""If the user interface was more user friendly and there was better error feedback, it would be helpful."

"I believe that visual data flow management and the transformation function should be improved.""My issues with the solution's stability are owing to the fact that it has certain bugs causing issues in some functionalities that should be working.""It could enhance its capabilities in the realm of self-service options as currently, it is more suited for individuals with technical proficiency who can create pages using it.""It would be better if the first level of technical support were a bit more technically knowledgeable to solve the problem. I think they could also improve the injection of custom scripts. It is pretty difficult to add additional scripts. If the modeling doesn't give you what you want, and you want to change the script generated by the modeling, it is a bit more challenging than in most other products. It is very good with standard form type systems, but if you get a more complicated data paradigm, it tends to struggle with transforming that into a model.""Qlik's ETL and data transformation could be better.""The solution has room for improvement in the ETL. They have an ETL, but when it comes to the monitoring portion, Qlik Compose doesn't provide a feature for monitoring.""I'd like to have access to more developer training materials.""For more complex work, we are not using Qlik Compose because it cannot handle very high volumes at the moment. It needs the same batching capabilities that other ETL tools have. We can't batch the data into small chunks when transforming large amounts of data. It tries to do everything in one shot and that's where it fails."
