Data virtualization has unified siloed sources and now supports real-time decisions
The best features Denodo offers stand out to me as the ability to develop REST web services fast and easily, create and combine new views, integrate different sources of data, and connect with other tools seamlessly. When I mention fast and easy creation of views and integration, I love the agile data provisioning and integration, where Denodo provides a comprehensive set of capabilities for implementing logical data integration, management, and delivery, which in turn enables agile data analytics and an informed decision-making process to be smooth. I also appreciate the performance optimization with AI, which improves performance optimization through the integration of artificial intelligence capabilities. Furthermore, I appreciate the unified security and governance, where it addresses the need for an organization to effectively manage security, data privacy, and data protection easily, offering a centralized platform that allows the application of governance policies and fine-grained security controls. Another feature I would add about Denodo is that it also provides a single point of control where we can establish security controls over the entire infrastructure and gain visibility into all our data assets. Denodo has positively impacted my organization as since we started using this tool, it has been very helpful because it is a huge advantage that we can connect to many different databases to provide data rapidly and accurately and also gain insights, which helps us to make data-driven decisions easily. It has proven to be a valuable environment for deploying data virtualization solutions, and its user community is active in finding and fixing issues more accurately. Through data insights from Denodo, we have been able to improve our decision making, which helps to better communication between the stakeholders thanks to the real-time experience. It also saves a lot of time.

Effective data transformation and integration in complex environments with high functionality
Something that could be improved in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is that the problem is not a lack of capability or functionalities. The problem is that it is a very complex environment. To put your hand on this environment is a very demanding task. This is the real problem. The problem is not about the product, but about the complexity to manage, to configure, to decide what to do. I have some experience using SAP R/3. It seems to me something similar. When you have to configure a situation with a client, especially for a client not in an industrial sector, but in a service sector, it is quite usual that you are in trouble for some reason. This is always the story that I found in the implementations I have done. Maybe there are only three or four big problems, in some other cases there are more than that, but this is the situation usually. For WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, not the same, but I must say it is quite often there is a need to put together some pieces and make it work in a coordinated way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Denodo is very stable."
"One thing that we have noticed is that when you have a BI tool, you end up building a lot of the logic in the BI tool, but as a company, every company wants to be tool agnostic because today, you could be in the Qlik Sense, and tomorrow, you may decide to go with Tableau or something else that is there. If you have put a lot of logic within the tool, transitioning or moving away from one BI tool to another tool becomes a very intensive process. By keeping the logic in Denodo, you can move to any tool."
"The performance and the speed to market are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The most valuable features are query optimization and the single language independence from the sources we're using to catch data."
"It was very powerful because we could deliver this data in a short time and with some data governance, because you deliver it through a data catalog and you have the data lineage, and you can put there the role level security, column level security, and it was very helpful for us, and the end-user was very happy to have it."
"Data mining is one of the valuable features. We're able to connect all of the data sources with the installed driver, so that is a good advantage in Denodo. Being able to join the tables and view them is also valuable."
"This solution is a really good way to get all your sources organized when there are data problems and things are scattered everywhere."
"The ability to connect to a lot of different sources."
"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 learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the integration between core banking and other systems."
"The installation process is easy."
"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."
"It was mostly easy to set up the product."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
 

Cons

"The dropdown menus feel antiquated to me, and the administrative portals need improvement."
"User-specific security at the column and row levels needs to be improved. Instead of applying security at every individual level, it would be better if it were at the group or tier level. It will save a lot of time."
"I think Denodo needs a bit of work with performance management. When data sets are huge and a heavy query has been pushed out to the database, it can take quite some time to get what you need without clear optimization techniques."
"Documentation needs to be improved, they need to lift their game."
"I would like it if we could pull the data model or export the data model because Denodo has, based on how you build, something called associations. The data model gets very confusing when you go look at it. It depends on how you define it, but it's really huge. I wish there was a way to export it into Visio. It could be that they already have a way to do it, and I don't know, but it would be much easier for the architects and even for the developers to look at it than scrunching it into the screen and expanding every small portion of it. If there was an easy way to export the Denodo model into another modeling tool and view it, it would be great."
"The support is not the best and should be improved."
"We can't scale it to meet digital requirements."
"I would like to see a connectivity option with third-party apps, for example, JDBC, and ODBC drivers. Currently, we need to install it separately from the Denodo side and then connect it."
"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."
"For simpler tasks or simpler use cases, we avoid using WSO2 Enterprise Integrator because it is quite complex."
"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 product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cost wise, on a scale from one to five, with one being the cheapest and five being the most expensive, Denodo would be at three. We get all the features in a bundle."
"I don't know the actual cost, but it's tens of thousands of dollars per month."
"The pricing is pretty good, and I would rate it at four out of five."
"The cost for Denodo is in line with other similar products."
"Depending on the size of the client you want to work with, it can be prohibitively expensive at times."
"For us, the cost has been okay. Also, there are no additional costs; it's just the standard licensing fee."
"Talking with my manager and others, nobody has complained about the pricing so far which is a positive sign."
"There is an express edition and a licensed enterprise edition."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"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."
