Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The exchange and API management features are the best in the market."
"The ability to define multi-tiered APIs and reuse them is a fantastic platform feature."
"The integration potential is excellent."
"Overall, it is a pretty good product. It is also very scalable."
"It can scale."
"This is the easiest and best tool available."
"The most valuable feature is their integrations and very good API management."
"The API toolkit is the solution's most valuable aspect at this time, for our organization."
"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."
"There are many good features in this solution including the data fields, database integration, support for SQL views, and the lookups for matching information."
"Like most Microsoft products, SSIS is user-friendly and easy to use."
"The main value of any Microsoft product is the ease of use. You can achieve more with less time. That's what's beneficial for me. With many competitors, you might need to spend more time coming up with a solution because you have to focus on taking care of the product."
"Built in reports show package execution and messages. Logging can also be customized so only what is needed is logged. There is also an excellent logging replacement called BiXpress that provides both historical and real-time monitoring which is more efficient and much more robust than the built-in logging capabilities. And none of this requires custom coding to make it useful unlike many other ETL tools."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"It has good data integration and good processes."
"The performance and stability are good."
"The stability could be better."
"Pricing is one aspect of the solution that is troublesome. It's too expensive for smaller organizations."
"The runtime management and connectors could use some work and are vulnerable to breakage after upgrades."
"The solution's pricing model is very strange, and it will be really expensive if you use APIs a lot."
"Technical support needs to be improved, especially when you need help with more technical aspects of the solution."
"Adding connectors for new upcoming applications would add extra value to this product."
"Mule should have better B2B integration."
"Lacks intelligent management data and intelligent mappings."
"There is connectivity with other databases, however, this is the most significant issue that has to be addressed."
"The solution could improve by having quicker release updates."
"I would like to see more standard components out of the box, such as SFTP, and Data Compression components."
"SSIS can improve by the minimum code requirements in stored procedures and exporting data is difficult. They could make it easier, it should be as easy as it is to import data."
"Future releases should improve the data lineage, as it currently is not good."
"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."
"You have to write push down join & lookup SQL to the database yourself via stored procedures or use of the SQL Task to get very high performance. That said, this is a common complaint for nearly all ETL tools on the market and those that offer an alternative such as Informatica offer them at a very expensive add-on price."
"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."
