We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The trigger scheduling options are decently robust.""For me, it was that there are dedicated connectors for different targets or sources, different data sources. For example, there is direct connector to Salesforce, Oracle Service Cloud, etcetera, and that was really helpful.""One of the most valuable features of Azure Data Factory is the drag-and-drop interface. This helps with workflow management because we can just drag any tables or data sources we need. Because of how easy it is to drag and drop, we can deliver things very quickly. It's more customizable through visual effect.""The most valuable aspect is the copy capability.""The solution is okay.""The feature I found most helpful in Azure Data Factory is the pipeline feature, including being able to connect to different sources. Azure Data Factory also has built-in security, which is another valuable feature.""The solution can scale very easily.""An excellent tool for pipeline orchestration."
