Its ability to transform and transport data is extremely valuable

We use SSIS for data extraction, transformation, and loading processes. This includes extracting data from various sources like Oracle and SQL Server, and then transforming it for use in reporting tools like Power BI dashboards. While we haven't directly migrated data between databases using SSIS…

Consolidated, reliable, and has responsive technical support

There is a minor need to improve the ease of configuration. The configuration of the product is not an easy task for everyone. I agree that it has to be that way, as it's a good technology, however, maybe for people with low experience it can be hard. There can be a higher learning curve. The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution. I'd like to see the possibility of configuring the product via consoles with more elasticity without having the need to go to the single files in the file system, add the files manually, and then restarting. We'd like to make some changes, some tuning of the product, using the administration console. If this is extended to the console, it would be great. We need more operations done by the console. It simplifies the life of the worker.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use and developer friendly."

"The most valuable feature of SSIS is its ease of use. It is easier to use than other applications."

"The performance is good."

"Data Flows are the main component we use. These can range from a simple source to sink ETL, to many source to many sink dataflows."

"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."

"The performance and stability are good."

"It's saved time using visualization descriptions."

"The interface is very user-friendly."

More SSIS pros

"In my opinion, the most valuable aspect of this solution is its extensive range of adaptors and connectors. This feature holds significant importance and provides great value to users."

"The connectors have been the most impactful features for handling integrations. I can use these connectors when I need specific connectivity with a third party, like a core banking system in BFSI. I don't need to do all the development. I take the specific connector, put in the IP address and password, and it takes care of everything."

"The solution basically conforms to our standards."

"The installation process is easy."

"The learning curve for this solution is very good."

"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."

"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."

"It was mostly easy to set up the product."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator pros

Cons

"There is connectivity with other databases, however, this is the most significant issue that has to be addressed."

"I would also like to see full integration with our BI because then our full load of data will be available in our organization. They should incorporate an ATL process."

"Tuning using this solution requires extensive expertise to improve performance."

"The solution could improve on integrating with other types of data sources."

"It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution."

"SSIS sometimes hangs, and there are some problems with servers going down after they've been patched."

"SSIS has room for improvement, mainly because the overall package can be buggy. It often locks up, requiring a restart, which is annoying. However, since it's free, we tolerate these performance issues. I'd like to see better debugging tools in future releases and improvements in API calls; It would be helpful if SSIS had a built-in API engine so we wouldn't have to rely solely on database connections."

"There were some issues when we tried to connect it to data storage. It was a connection issue."

More SSIS cons

"The customization can be a bit difficult."

"They should release upgrades more frequently."

"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."

"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."

"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."

"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."

"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."

"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you don't want to pay a lot of money, you can go for SSIS, as its open-source version is available. When it comes to licensing, SSIS can be expensive."

"We purchased the standard edition of SQL Server and SSIS came with it free of charge."

"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."

"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."

"The solution is available at a lesser price than that of Informatica."

"SSIS' licensing is a little high, but it gives good value for money."

"It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."

"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."

More SSIS pricing and cost advice

"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."

"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."

"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."

"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."

"It is a low-cost solution."

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
