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.
GouravSuri - PeerSpot reviewer
A cloud solution that has a lot of connectors, but it should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples
Smaller customers who want to integrate with other systems don't need too much in-house expertise in terms of technology. They can hire consultants who can implement this solution for them, and they don't have to maintain any infrastructure. For a smaller setup, it is a go-to integration system wherein they don't need a lot of expertise or infrastructure. The solution's UI is pretty intuitive and easy. It is good for smaller integration use cases. I think it would be a problem for bigger use cases. Overall, I rate TIBCO Scribe a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most important features are it works well and provides self-service BI."
"Overall, it's a good product."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The 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."
"It has good data integration and good processes."
"The most valuable features of SSIS are that it works with the query language and it can import data from different sources."
"The script component is very powerful, things that you cannot normally do, is feasible through C#."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"SSIS is cumbersome despite its drag-and-drop functionality. For example, let's say I have 50 tables with 30 columns. You need to set a data type for each column and table. That's around 1,500 objects. It gets unwieldy adding validation for every column. Previously, SSIS automatically detected the data type, but I think they removed this feature. It would automatically detect if it's an integer, primary key, or foreign key column. You had fewer problems building the model."
"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."
"We'd like more integration capabilities."
"It needs more integration tools, so you can connect to different sources."
"In terms of its performance, it could be better. That could be something that would be easy and welcomed as an upgrade."
"The creation of the measure in the DAC's model could be improved."
"Microsoft should offer an on-premises support warranty for those using that deployment. They seem to be withdrawing from on-premises options."
"There were some issues when we tried to connect it to data storage. It was a connection issue."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
"This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
"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."
"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."
"All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."
"We purchased the standard edition of SQL Server and SSIS came with it free of charge."
"The solution comes free of cost."
