Sakiru Dosumu - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Doug Isabelle - PeerSpot reviewer
Good management and pricing but not great for enterprise environments
In a high-density location, we're running into connectivity drops. There may be too many rouge devices broadcasting, and the devices is getting interference from another channel. The only to fix this is to reboot and we need something that reboots on the fly. We also need better security for VLANs and VPNs. There are issues with certain Apple devices. Technical support is not very helpful. The initial setup, which seemed straightforward at first, had to be redone. This may not have been the fault of the product. We're not sure what went wrong.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SSIS is easy to use."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is simple to use and it offers a flexible custom script task."
"It's already very user-friendly and has a good dashboard."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"The setup was easy. All Microsoft products are easy to set up."
"The workflow features have been very valuable. You can have automated workflows and all the steps are controlled. The workflow functionality of integration services is excellent."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"The UI is very user-friendly."
"It's easy to manage and support the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem."
"The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy."
 

Cons

"It would be nice if you could run SSIS on other environments besides Windows."
"We've had issues in terms of the amount of data that is transferred when we are scheduling."
"We have a stability problem because when something works, it works one time. The next time, it doesn't work."
"Involving a data lake or data engineering aspects would be useful. While it is there, we need more features included."
"The creation of the measure in the DAC's model could be improved."
"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."
"Video training would be a helpful addition."
"SSIS is stable, but extensive ETL data processing can have some performance issues."
"There are issues with certain Apple devices."
"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution comes free of cost."
"Our license with SSIS is annual."
"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."
"SSIS is fairly well-priced - I would rate it at four out of five."
"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
"My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
"It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
"There is no license. The solution is free."
