Joy Maitra - PeerSpot reviewer
Facilitates seamless data pipeline creation with good analytics and and thorough monitoring
Azure Data Factory is a low code, no code platform, which is helpful. It provides many prebuilt functionalities that assist in building data pipelines. Also, it facilitates easy transformation with all required functionalities for analytics. Furthermore, it connects to different sources out-of-the-box, making integration much easier. The monitoring is very thorough, though a more readable version would be appreciable.

Easy drag-and-drop interface and supports custom Python functions, but the performance needs to be better
The memory processing needs to be improved because when you deal with a large amount of data, the interface tends to hang a little bit. When the system boots up, it can take between two and five minutes, depending on the system memory (RAM). If the system is low on memory then it takes a long time to start up. If you are not familiar with Python then this product will be a little more difficult for you. It can take a long time to migrate from one version to the next because there are a lot of processes to deal with.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Microsoft supported us when we planned to provision Azure Data Factory over a private link. As a result, we received excellent support from Microsoft."
"The most valuable feature is the copy activity."
"Data Flow and Databricks are going to be extremely valuable services, allowing data solutions to scale as the business grows and new data sources are added."
"Azure Data Factory became more user-friendly when data-flows were introduced."
"One of the most valuable features of Azure Data Factory is the drag-and-drop interface. This helps with workflow management because we can just drag any tables or data sources we need. Because of how easy it is to drag and drop, we can deliver things very quickly. It's more customizable through visual effect."
"The security of the agent that is installed on-premises is very good."
"The overall performance is quite good."
"The most valuable features of Azure Data Factory are the flexibility, ability to move data at scale, and the integrations with different Azure components."
"The drag-and-drop functionality makes it easy for business users."
 

Cons

"Real-time replication is required, and this is not a simple task."
"There is room for improvement primarily in its streaming capabilities. For structured streaming and machine learning model implementation within an ETL process, it lags behind tools like Informatica."
"There should be a way that it can do switches, so if at any point in time I want to do some hybrid mode of making any data collections or ingestions, I can just click on a button."
"I would like to be informed about the changes ahead of time, so we are aware of what's coming."
"The deployment should be easier."
"I rate Azure Data Factory six out of 10 for stability. ADF is stable now, but we had problems recently with indexing on an SQL database. It's slow when dealing with a huge volume of data. It depends on whether the database is configured as general purpose or hyperscale."
"While it has a range of connectors for various systems, such as ERP systems, the support for these connectors can be lacking."
"It does not appear to be as rich as other ETL tools. It has very limited capabilities."
"The memory processing needs to be improved because when you deal with a large amount of data, the interface tends to hang a little bit."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is fair."
"Azure products generally offer competitive pricing, suitable for diverse budget considerations."
"I don't see a cost; it appears to be included in general support."
"Product is priced at the market standard."
"Understanding the pricing model for Data Factory is quite complex."
"I rate the product price as six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"I would rate Data Factory's pricing nine out of ten."
"ADF is cheaper compared to AWS."
"The open-source version is free to use, although it has a limitation of two-million records."
