Its ability to transform and transport data is extremely valuable
he ability of SSIS to transform and transport data is extremely valuable to me. It allows for intelligent extraction and manipulation of data during the process. Improved error handling would enhance ETL processes further. I haven't directly utilized the data flow components but they seem capable of supporting complex data integration needs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
"SSIS' best feature is SFTP connectivity."
"With this solution, there is the potential to expand, so that you can immediately write code onto the SQL server."

"Like most Microsoft products, SSIS is user-friendly and easy to use."

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"Sometimes, there are compatibility issues with some features. From time to time, I also face issues when trying to migrate. If I misconfigure things when I use Snapshot, the migration will fail.It can take a long time to migrate huge amounts of data, so it would be nice if that could be faster."
"I would like to see better integration with Power BI."
"SSIS is stable, but extensive ETL data processing can have some performance issues."
"I would like to see better technical documentation because many times information is missing."
"The high prices attached to the product can be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It needs more integration tools, so you can connect to different sources."
"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."
"We would like the solution to be expanded so that it is available for other platforms than just Microsoft."
