It is stable and we did not have any issues with initial setup. I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version to support the wide range of sources available.

I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME) I have been using it for 6-7 months. There were no concerns with the stability. This product is very good from a stability…

Facilitates complex data integration with ease and flexibility

It would be great if ODI could link the designer, mapping, and workflows in a more simplified manner, maybe in one combined interface. It would be excellent not to have to go into different areas to perform different activities but rather have a user-defined interface where we can configure a job, run it, monitor it, link packages, and link subprocesses all in one frame instead of having the designer separately, mapping separately, and monitoring and session management separately. With respect to data quality challenges, it would be great to give an option to fix data quality issues based on AI. Integrating AI with ODI that provides recommendations on how to fix those data quality issues after analyzing and profiling business data would be excellent. One of the main disadvantages of the Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it sometimes takes a lot of resources when handling multiple jobs. The scalability and the ability to handle multiple workloads of several parallel ETL jobs could use improvement, and certain parallel threads should be added along with the ability to configure multiple jobs from the same data directory structure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This product is extremely useful and better than building an in-house solution."

"We have been using it for ETL, it is very robust and easy to use."

"There were no concerns with the stability. This product is very good from a stability perspective."

"Web based interface."

"For data transfers and ETLs on Windows, this is a great product."

"It effectively manages errors through its logging and exception-handling capabilities."

"ODI is a great ETL tool that you can use for implementation."

"We realized we were behind and purchased a whole stack of Oracle products that have simplified the way we move and track data."

"The most valuable feature is Data movement."

"Rather than taking your production, or your business, and trying to make it fit a tool, you do the opposite; you make the tool fit your business."

"It's completely user-friendly."

"Before adopting this solution we used to work hard, and we now feel better because our manual work is completely over."

"The ability to extract from multiple sources, the flexibility of using the Knowledge module, and the ergonomics of the GUI are the features I've found most valuable."

More Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pros

Cons

"The areas which I think need to be improved are the transform and load steps."

"At the moment, we can't even use it for 1, since it keeps failing in our QA testing."

"Technical support is an area which can definitely improve."

"I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME)."

"ODI could improve by focusing on streamlining its features without unnecessary overhead."

"It used to crash with large datasets."

"The main problem with ODI is that you have to create each step of the transformation as a new interface. A big data flow can have more than 100 interfaces, which can make it difficult to trace the data."

"Overall the product is fine, but sometimes its reports unknown errors while we compile ETL scripts."

"Technical support for ODI has been awful, but I think it differs by product because support for OFSAA is wonderful."

"We used a third party to do the implementation of ODI."

"If you have something like Cisco on top of it, you will have endless problems."

"The solution lacks some functions and features."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Per user, it is $900 USD per year, though they will give some discount. However, even a 60% to 70% of discount for each won't help us much. On top of that, there is the perpetual license you must pay at the outset."

"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."

"I have yet to determine the exact figure for Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing, but it has lower pricing than Informatica."

"Being an ODI developer, I never had to pay for this product. I know that the pricing/licensing is not really low, but the product is really good."

"The solution is very expensive."

"The Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing isn't expensive, but it's not cheap, so it's in the middle. I'd rate the pricing as three out of five."

"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great."

"The solution is expensive because of the model they use. The cost is for the license and for support."
