Pros | |
"All our systems can be widely integrated by ODI, such as transactional systems, our data warehouses, and B2B integration." "It's completely user-friendly." "The most valuable feature that we use is the Knowledge Modules." "All ETL code is stored in repositories in underlying database schemas. The number of users can access and work on the same solution using a client tool. So distributed teams can work on this tool in an efficient manner." "The scalability is great. It's one of the reasons we chose 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 provides very good and central logging systems. It offers high flexibility with vertical and horizontal extend capacity." "The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable." "The initial setup is easy." "The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems." "Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework." "The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration." "With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters." |
Cons | |
"It would be really good if Oracle considered enabling the tool to integrate with some other platforms that are deprecated simply for commercial reasons" "Overall the product is fine, but sometimes its reports unknown errors while we compile ETL scripts." "The performance of the user interface is in need of improvement." "There are certain things where it can be improved. Initial solution setup seems a bit complex at the start, it should be improved because it becomes bit tough for a novice to get started on this. Sometimes error description is not helpful to understand the problem it gives some generic type of errors which are at times not that helpful to understand the underlying root cause of the issue." "The resource management aspect of the solution could be improved." | "The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved." "In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them." "The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users." "It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development." "The older version of the solution will no longer be supported." "The cloud capability features need improvement." "I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible." "The usability is an area where it can be improved upon." |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great." | "The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good." "The pricing for this solution is fine." "There are fees in addition to the licensing." |
