Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."The process of using the tool's scalability option is well documented."
"The tool improved our data integration workflow primarily due to its compatibility with Oracle. Its integration makes it very convenient for analytics. Its most valuable feature is robust extended capability. The solution's debugging capabilities are good."
"The scalability is great. It's one of the reasons we chose the solution."
"In our DW/BI solution, ODI is the main tool to integrate the data in a daily batch way."
"I like that Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) has a straightforward setup and offers good technical support."
"All our systems can be widely integrated by ODI, such as transactional systems, our data warehouses, and B2B integration."
"The Knowledge Module approach provides an easy and reusable way to create our own integration strategies. It's easy to create these Knowledge Modules to connect to new technologies, for instance."
"I do not have to maintain a separate ETL instance. I can change the SQL when something is not performing correctly."
"ODI's most valuable features are it utilizes the database engine and is very lightweight."
"Informatica Enterprise Data Lake's setup process was complex since it doesn't support a lot of real-time systems."
"Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is already good as a solution. Still, it needs some editing of its preview package, or if the package is upgraded, that will make Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) even better."
"If you have something like Cisco on top of it, you will have endless problems."
"The interface of ODI could be improved. For example, navigating and finding functions can be difficult. For example, you have to know which step you need to go to look at where your job status is. The logical step is a bit complex compared to other tools. It's much easier to get a graphical view, but with ODI, it's graphical, plus you have to know all the other pieces that fit around it. You have to think about the logical and physical aspects."
"Overall the product is fine, but sometimes its reports unknown errors while we compile ETL scripts."
"Technical Support could be better."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is real-time integration. Currently, my company has a workaround to implement real-time integration, an area on which Oracle must focus more. Real-time integration should be easier in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI). Another area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is integration with more publishers and subscribers rather than just database integrations."
"ODI could improve by focusing on streamlining its features without unnecessary overhead."
"The tool should improve its pricing. It prevents the application of Oracle ODI on small and medium projects in countries like Croatia, Germany, or the US. While there are no technological obstacles to using it, the high price makes it unfeasible for projects with smaller budgets."
