Drag-and-drop pipelines have saved days of work and now automate data movement and backfilling
If the AI features were more improved so that I don't have to provide each and every detail, Azure Data Factory could be improved in a much better way by improving the AI features. For example, if I want to fetch any data from a raw source, I need to provide each and every detail. But if I am just uploading my raw data and if AI will sync with that data, it can analyze that data and give me proper suggestions on how that should be done in a proper way. Automatic suggestions could improve in a much better way. As I have mentioned, the AI features as well as more drag-and-drop activities could be improved. If I am making a pipeline, it should give me suggestions, such as which activity should be used, so that I don't have to remember each activity. If I have used one activity, I shouldn't have to remember what activity should I use next. It should give auto-suggestions. That is why I have given a nine out of 10. Currently, I don't know about its governance and security, but in view of its improvement, I think Azure Data Factory should improve in these areas. As I already mentioned, the AI features should be improved. Also, the auto-suggestion features should also improve.

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

"What I like best about Azure Data Factory is that it allows you to create pipelines, specifically ETL pipelines. I also like that Azure Data Factory has connectors and solves most of my company's problems."
"This is an excellent tool for pipeline orchestration; connecting the different components and activities as well as gathering data."
"It's cloud-based, allowing multiple users to easily access the solution from the office or remote locations. I like that we can set up the security protocols for IP addresses, like allow lists. It's a pretty user-friendly product as well. The interface and build environment where you create pipelines are easy to use. It's straightforward to manage the digital transformation pipelines we build."
"The overall performance is quite good."
"The features that I've found most valuable, in order: That it is a complete ETL Solution, the second one is interface, the third one workflow, and the fourth one ease of use."
"I like that it's a monolithic data platform. This is why we propose these solutions."
"The user interface is very good. It makes me feel very comfortable when I am using the tool."
"Azure Data Factory is easy to use and integrates well, providing good classification to bring data from diverse parts of the data infrastructure, whether from CSV files coming from the Cisco server, MySQL, Excel machines, or local network data from remote files."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"They should work on optimizing their licensing model and pricing structure."
"Azure Data Factory didn't bring a lot of good when we were also using Alteryx."
"The solution needs to integrate more with other providers and should have a closer integration with Oracle BI."
"Some of the optimization techniques are not scalable."
"I have not found any real shortcomings within the product."
"Additionally, the ability to handle the largest volumes of data is another concern; if I have to manage more than one terabyte of data every day, I am not comfortable dealing with Azure Data Factory and had to switch to Oracle Data Integrators (ODI) because it lacks performance features."
"The stability of Azure as a PaaS could be improved."
"Sometimes I need to do some coding, and I'd like to avoid that. I'd like no-code integrations."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is based on the amount of data sets that we are ingesting."
"For our use case, it is not expensive. We take into the picture everything: resources, learning curve, and maintenance."
"ADF is cheaper compared to AWS."
"It seems very low initially, but as the data grows, the solution’s bills grow exponentially."
"Pricing is comparable, it's somewhere in the middle."
"Azure products generally offer competitive pricing, suitable for diverse budget considerations."
"While I can't specify the actual cost, I believe it is reasonably priced and comparable to similar products."
"Data Factory is expensive."
