Pros
"BMC Data Management improved our data recovery process by simplifying it.""I have worked with DB2's great features in the last five years.

It gives real-time information."

"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the ETL. The solution is open-source which provides advantages, such as good performance and high efficiency. Additionally, it supports three data types which eliminates predefining the data, and we can write script models in Python.""The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its user-friendly graphical interface.""The tool's middle-dimensional structure significantly simplifies obtaining the right data at the appropriate level. This feature makes deploying our applications easier since we utilize a single source without publishing data from various sources.""It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good.""It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services.""The technical support treats us well. They already have a support portal, and they are responsive, which helps.""The new version with the Productivity Cloud is very simple. It's easy to use, navigate, and understand.""It's been able to do everything we require."

Cons
"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it. It's not easy to see how it works.""One area for improvement with this product could be in providing clearer guidance and tools for disaster recovery planning and execution."

"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level.""There are certain functions that are available in other ETL tools which are still not present in Matillion ETL. It would be good to have more features.""When using the SQL loader type there were not a lot of pre-processing features for the data. For example, if there is a table with twenty columns, but we only want to load ten columns. In that case, we can use a security script to select the specific columns needed. However, if we want to perform extensive pre-processing of the data, I faced some challenges with Matillion ETL. I did not encounter many challenges, but my overall experience is limited as I only have three years of experience.""The tool's lineage is very weak.""Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster.""One of the features that's in development is data privacy in the cloud, along with further SAP integration. For connectivity to SAP systems.""The current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine.""Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
