More Jitterbit Harmony Pros →

"The solution offers very good integration capabilities.""Data Services' table comparison mechanism is very powerful. It's pretty hard to find a similar feature in other solutions.""Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable. It is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools. It has very good integration with SAP, but it also has the capabilities to connect to other systems. We find it very helpful and stable.""The maintenance of data services is the solution's most valuable feature.""Technical support from SAP is awesome. If we have an issue, they give a good solution.""The user interface is ok.""The most valuable feature is the ETL functionality.""The solution is easy to use since it's a graphical tool. It also requires only low-level coding."

More Jitterbit Harmony Cons →

"It's an ETL that is very good with relational databases but not as good with files and semi-structured files.""The solution should offer more machine learning and automation.""An area for improvement in SAP Data Services could involve making the product more accessible to non-technical end-users.""The interface is not quite user-friendly and is in need of improvement.""Newer feature integration is lagging behind the company acquisitions and the product could do more to service a broader range of devices.""With SAP Data Services, the problem arises when I try to connect to Azure Databricks.""Data Services SAP is lacking in sources and target databases compared to Informatica. SAP Data Services should have more connectivity.""The solution shows a lack of cloud support data services."
