We performed a comparison between SSIS and TIBCO BusinessWorks based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Data Flows are the main component we use. These can range from a simple source to sink ETL, to many source to many sink dataflows."
"It is also easy to learn and user-friendly. Microsoft is also good in terms of technical support. They have built a large community all over the world."
"The script component is very powerful, things that you cannot normally do, is feasible through C#."
"The most important features are it works well and provides self-service BI."
"It has good data integration and good processes."
"In SSIS, the scope is not only to handle ETL challenges, but it will allow us to do so many other tasks, such as DBA activities, scripting, calling any .exe or scripts, etc."
"It's something I needed for bulk imports. I'm not a big fan of it, but I haven't seen anything better."
"You can get data from any data source with SSIS and dump it to any outside source. It is helpful. Getting, extracting, converting, and dumping data doesn't require much effort because we can do everything in the user interface. You drag and drop, then give the required input. It's intuitive."
"BusinessWorks reduces development time, helping developers to focus on business logic."
"The high availability, tolerance, and load balancing features are top-notch. Its scalability features are also pretty cool."
"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with."
"It is a seamless and sophisticated tool."
"One of the most valuable features is that it's a simple development. It takes a short time to get services to work."
"The most valuable feature is the low-code platform."
"The ability to link to different technologies is valuable to us."
"Good TIBCO BusinessWorks features are the admin console and the ability to roll back to the previous version."
"We'd like them to develop data exploration more."
"The security could be improved, as it is more important in our context."
"We have a stability problem because when something works, it works one time. The next time, it doesn't work."
"I have a tool called ZappySys. I need that tool to cut down on the complexity of SSIS. That tool really helps with a quick turnaround. I can do things quickly, and I can do things accurately. I can get better reporting on errors."
"The creation of the measure in the DAC's model could be improved."
"There are a lot of things that Microsoft could improve in relation to SSIS. One major problem we faced was when attempting to move some Excel files to our SQL Server. The Excel provider has a limitation that prevents importing more than 255 columns from a particular Excel file to the database. This restriction posed a significant issue for us."
"I come from a coding background and this tool is graphically based. Sometimes I think it's cumbersome to do mapping graphically. If there was a way to provide a simple script, it would be helpful and make it easier to use."
"Sometimes we need to connect to AWS to get additional data sources, so we have to install some external LAN and not a regular RDBMS. We need external tools to connect. It would be great if SSIS included these tools. I'd also like some additional features for row indexing and data conversion."
"The technical support's turnaround time is an area where TIBCO needs to consider improvements...Getting support from TIBCO on a particular issue takes a lot of turnaround time."
"The cost of the solution has room for improvement."
"There are multiple plugins which increase the number of product installations."
"They don't support out of the box - you have to buy adapters or you have to have the technology."
"Improve Business Studio's stability to further minimize development time."
"The communication protocols could be improved."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks could be improved with cloud support."
"There are not many plugins available to integrate the databases. We have to write it in Java and integrate it. The developers should have more knowledge. These are the three main aspects that they could improve."
