Cons
"There are limitations when processing more than one GD file.""My only problem is the seamless connectivity with various other databases, for example, SAP.""It would be better if it had machine learning capabilities.""Sometimes I need to do some coding, and I'd like to avoid that. I'd like no-code integrations.""For some of the data, there were some issues with data mapping. Some of the error messages were a little bit foggy. There could be more of a quick start guide or some inline examples. The documentation could be better.""This solution is currently only useful for basic data movement and file extractions, which we would like to see developed to handle more complex data transformations.""Real-time replication is required, and this is not a simple task.""Azure Data Factory could benefit from improvements in its monitoring capabilities to provide a more robust feature set. Enhancing the ease of deployment to higher environments within Azure DevOps would be beneficial, as the current process often requires extensive scripting and pipeline development. It is also known for the flexibility of the data flow feature, particularly in supporting more dynamic data-driven architectures. These enhancements would contribute to a more seamless and efficient workflow within GitLab."

"It could be a bit more user-friendly.""Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets.""The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."
