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.

User-friendly interface facilitates efficient data migration and reduces operational overhead
Its usability and ease of use are standout features. It is really easy to use - almost too easy at times. Users don't have to be experts to use their tool set and utilize the clicking mechanisms, drop down boxes, and other features to build a package and run it. The configuration is very easy and the system is very stable. I would rate it at a 10 as it is highly reliable; we have never had any problems with it. Very little maintenance is required on my side. While you need to keep the product up to date, the maintenance requirements are minimal. SSIS integrates with all Microsoft tools seamlessly. We have used it against Oracle, DB2 and SQL. It integrates and can move data around from any data platforms, making it very diverse in that standpoint. It is a very robust tool that can work with many data sources, and its main strength is that it is extremely easy to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The drag-and-drop functionality makes it easy for business users."
"This solution allows you to include your own functions that are coded in Python."
"SSIS is an easy way to do data integration from various data sources. It doesn't matter whether it's a database, flat files, XML, or Web API. It can talk to the and join them all together."
"SSIS provides you with lookup and transformation functions, and you have the flexibility to write your own custom code."
"It has the ability to be deployed into the cloud through Data Factory, and run completely as a software as a service in the cloud."
"The most valuable features are the relatively short learning curve, and the automation capabilities provided through the BIML add-in for SSDT."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"I have found its most valuable features to be its package management capabilities and the flexibility it offers in designing workflows."
"Its compatibility with Microsoft products has been very valuable to our company."
"This solution is easy to implement, has a wide variety of connectors, has support for Visual Basic, and supports the C language."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."
"The interface could use improvement, as well as the administrative tools. Jobs fail from time to time for different reasons. It's not a problem with Microsoft, or SSIS itself. The problems are external, but to find the problems and analyze them it takes too much time."
"Future releases should improve the data lineage, as it currently is not good."
"It would be nice if you could run SSIS on other environments besides Windows."
"Sometimes, there are compatibility issues with some features."
"When I compare Talend and SSIS, Talend provides more features."
"The security could be improved, as it is more important in our context."
"Improvement as per customer requirements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The open-source version is free to use, although it has a limitation of two-million records."
"My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
"Depending on the arrangement that a certain company has with Microsoft, it may supply the permanent license that is included in the SQL server license, or it may be a time-bound license if it is a partner license or other enterprise license."
"The solution comes free of cost."
"The solution is available at a lesser price than that of Informatica."
"t's incredibly cost effective, easy to learn the basics quickly (although like all ETL tools requires the traditional learning curve to get good at) and has an immense user base."
"We have an enterprise license for this solution."
"The solution is economical. You don't have to worry about the pricing as long as you're installing both services on the same server."
"Based on my experience and understanding, Talend comes out to be a little bit expensive as compared to SSIS. The average cost of having Talend with Talend Management Console is around 72K per region, which is much higher than SSIS. SSIS works very well with Microsoft technologies, and if you have Microsoft technologies, it is not really expensive to have SSIS. If you have SQL Server, SSIS is free."
