"It can integrate with more recent databases like Cassandra, Hadoop, and other more recent Big Data databases."
"ODI's most valuable features are it utilizes the database engine and is very lightweight."
"The product has an ELT approach."
"One of the standout features of ODI is its ability to prepare everything on a vertical level and create reusable components, which adds to its value."
"Easy to understand, very developer-friendly, and has a big forum community and lots of documentation for support."

"Zapier handles everything under the sun that you would think you need in automation. It is the most mature integration platform and service on the market."
"The solution is a SaaS and does not require a complex setup."
"Zapier’s most valuable feature is its ability to interconnect applications or devices."

"I would only point out some minor bugs or glitches in the development interface (ODI studio)."
"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."
"If there was an add-on tool to hide the performance issues and solve them for me, then I might be interested in that as it would provide me value."
"It would be really good if Oracle considered enabling the tool to integrate with some other platforms that are deprecated simply for commercial reasons"
"The price needs to be lowered. It's too expensive."
"The resource management aspect of the solution could be improved."
"Technical Support could be better."
"Some apps are not available yet. For instance, a connection with Joomla! would be great. In general, all the most-used apps are available, but I bumped into Joomla! with a client."
"There is room for improvement in the support. They are not responsive, and they don't take much time to get resolved."
"Some recent changes to the solution have made it bulky and not as intuitive to use as it previously was."
"It is not worth the money if you have a little bit of a technical mind...Zapier is not able to set up different modules. When automation doesn't work, it's not that easy to find why it didn't work."
"The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments."
"The pricing of the solution is quite expensive."
"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors."
"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."
