Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of Denodo are the extraction option for adapters, and there are many things for the views, that are cached. Denodo is not storing the data, it looks first to tune the query, and these things are for the agents."
"Denodo makes it easy to export data as a service or data link to other services."
"This solution provides us with the ability to sync data, and make it available for anyone to use across the business."
"The most valuable features are data lineage and the concept of a semantic layer."
"In general, it's good for us to make tests so we can scout the data."
"The ability to connect to a lot of different sources."
"Data mining is one of the valuable features. We're able to connect all of the data sources with the installed driver, so that is a good advantage in Denodo. Being able to join the tables and view them is also valuable."
"The ability to transfer data is very valuable."
"The solution has the best feature for parameterization."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica Cloud Data Integration is Pushback. You are able to push the data to the solution itself, and it can handle the queries. It helps us a lot. With other tools, the burden is kept on the server."
"The mass ingestion functionality and the elasticity of the solution are great."
"It has a more UI-based tool, and the scripting is good."
"The data mapping capability is a valuable feature."
"It is one of the best tools available for data integration."
"REST API: Excellent for scripting control and reporting mechanisms"
"The product improves data quality."
"Denodo has some difficulty supporting large numbers of records."
"There are a couple of areas that can be improved in Denodo. From a stability point of view, sometimes we see issues in the data management functionality. This only happens now and then, however, and usually takes place when we add in our own customization."
"Sometimes, Windows-related functions do not work properly in Denodo. The analytic functions in SQL do not work properly."
"The dropdown menus feel antiquated to me, and the administrative portals need improvement."
"Documentation needs to be improved"
"The integration could use improvement, it's a lot of non-speed line processes that we have discovered, in the country. The configurations could use a lot more improvement."
"Denodo's training documentation could be improved by providing more material. From an administrative standpoint, I've found that only Denodo websites provide the usual tutorials. It may be because it's a bit of a restricted tool, but it results in trouble with learning. Normally, I can find help and solutions from other sources, but I haven't been able to find any for Denodo. Other that, it's fine and it performs well. I only have six months of experience, so I can't accurately suggest improvements."
"It would be beneficial to make sure that the team that will be using Denodo has some kind of training on how to use the product at least a month beforehand, and there could even be some kind of feedback or Q&A sessions to go along with the training. If Denodo were able to provide this kind of training, it would be very helpful to users in insurance and banking companies because the staff are typically older and not always technically-minded."
"Certain applications are not being synced with the ION."
"It needs to be a little more intuitive but it’s really not bad."
"I would also like to have profiling functionalities and quality transformations in the cloud."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration can improve by being more user-friendly. When you're working with the solution a lot of technical knowledge is required. It's not a solution that anyone can use properly, you need knowledge of what's happening at the back end, such as SQL. When you get stuck, you need to look into your logic. For other tools, such as Dell Boomi, anyone can use them."
"With the solution, we had some issues, and we have every day, and we used to open a ticket. Sometimes, there are data issues and transformation issues."
"Connectivity could be improved, it can be a little slow."
"Its pricing model can be improved. The response time from technical support can also be improved."
"Its features for partitioning and optimization could be better."
