We performed a comparison between IBM InfoSphere DataStage and TIBCO Cloud Integration based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."In IBM DataStage, the Transformer is the most valuable feature for me. It enables me to apply complex transformations, generate the gateway key, and map source tables into the session table."
"We are mostly using transmission rules. It has a lot of functions and logic related to transmission. It is a user-friendly tool with in-built functions."
"Compared to other ETL tools, DataStage has excellent debugging and development capabilities. And the availability of connectors, even though we sometimes have to opt for specific ones. Also, the availability of patches is good."
"Once you have Infosphere up and running properly, it is stable."
"ETL is the most valuable feature."
"The solution has improved the time it takes to perform tasks related to batch applications."
"The concept of integration is a valuable feature of the product."
"We like the flexibility of modeling."
"I like that it is a very good integration tool with many other things. TIBCO is very good for cloud integration"
"I am really impressed by TIBCO's integration of any level of complexity."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"It takes a lot of time to actually trigger your job and then go into the logs and other stuff. So all of this is really time-consuming."
"So, there are some features that are missing. If I compare DataStage to Talend, Talend allows you to write custom code in Java or use these tools in your applications as well if you are building a job application. But in DataStage, it does not allow you to write custom code for any component."
"The interface needs improvement."
"The initial setup can be complex."
"I'd like to be able to do more with the data and metadata, including copy and pasting, et cetera."
"In terms of intermediate storage, we have some challenges, especially with customers who store data in intermediate locations."
"Reduced cost would allow more customers to choose the product. It's quite expensive in relation to the cost of other similar solutions."
"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."
"Integrations could be better. Although integration is good, we have faced some block issues."
"The deployment was rather complicated."
"TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex."
