We performed a comparison between IBM InfoSphere DataStage and SAP Process Orchestration based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is very easy to use."
"The solution's scalability is really good...we are using multi-instance jobs where you can scale them easily."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to incorporate very complex business rules in Data Stage."
"The product is a stable and powerful data management solution that can run in parallel mode for enhanced speed."
"ETL is the most valuable feature."
"It is quite useful and powerful."
"The data lineage report can be filtered for reporting. The reports are user-friendly and take less time to find what you need."
"When we have needed help from the IBM team, they were helpful. Our company is a premium partner so we get fast responses."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."
"t is a pretty stable solution. I have not seen any outages in the solution."
"The monitoring is one of the greatest features in Process Orchestration because it is user-friendly and easy for somebody who is not experienced."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity."
"There are three things that could improve - the cloud, monitoring and cloud integration. It's a solid product but not a modern one and of course it depends what you're looking for."
"It doesn't have any big data connections. It would be good to have them because most of the systems are moving towards big data. There should also be a user-friendly way to interact with the cloud. Its loading process is very slow. It takes a lot of time for around 5 or 6 million records, and we are not able to provide real-time data to the vendors due to this delay. Its performance needs to be improved. It is also like a legacy system. It is not updated much. In higher versions, they only do small changes. We would like to have new features and new technologies."
"The solution can be a bit more user-friendly, similar to Informatica."
"It would be great if they can include some basic version of data quality checking features."
"Working with some of the big data components is good, but I can see improvements are needed."
"Improvements for DataStage could include better integration with modern data sources like cloud solutions and documents, along with enhancing its capability to handle non-structured data."
"In the future, I would like to see more integration with cloud technologies."
"The interface needs improvement."
"The cloud capability features need improvement."
"We encounter challenges while connecting to MQTT and MQDD adapters."
"SAP needs to improve a lot in terms of the orchestration part so that more adapters can be provided to users, which are areas where the solution has downsides."
"This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions."
"The solution could improve by making it more user-friendly by limiting the code required. We have to add some code in some cases where we need complex logic or some other functions. If this was able to be done in a more simplified manner then it would save a lot of effort and time."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"The solution could be more scalable."
