Yugan Pillay - PeerSpot reviewer
A nice interface and good training with helpful data transformation connectors
The data transformation and use of the pre-connectors have been really useful. We are able to clean and convert files before data is ingested into SQL. The workflow allows us to find errors and fix them as well easily. The interface is really nice and easy to learn. The workflow process helps us save time when we need to figure out which part of the workflow is failing. The time spent on fixing issues is reduced drastically. The data transformation connectors are really nice since we are able to work with data in any format. The training material is really good.
Divya Prakash - PeerSpot reviewer
An integration tool that is highly compatible and easy to maintain
Dealing with the large file sizes has occasionally been a challenge, though we have found workarounds. But dealing with large file sizes could be easy in integrations. I have also come across schema files where headers, footers, and bodies are there, but it's not a valid schema. None of the MSCAs are defined properly. In such cases, we have to think of multiple workarounds, such as splitting or merging. But this is a standard requirement for organizations, so custom solutions should be provided. There are cases when the systems don't expect additional MSCAs, or they expect headers, footers, or tags with different values. But this is not a proper XML. So if we are dealing with XML conversions, mapping, and integrations, we have to do some custom work. These are solutions that Oracle can provide.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Well-managed version control of workflows and the simplicity in promoting workflows through each environment has aided my team in developing workflows for various environments without the risk of losing development work."
"Being able to seamlessly make changes to how one can do mapping visually without having to be a seasoned developer is great."
"It has improved our integration with our data supplier."
"The solution has increased efficiency and productivity and saved us time and money."
"The no-code visual front end, along with pre-built samples, allows someone with very little technical ability to get an integration up and running."
"The Flowgear tool is helping us reduce the manual work that is done."
"Great for data flow."
"The most important part would be the use of connectors. The significant number of cloud connectors available for active integration is its value."
"The initial setup of Oracle Integration Cloud Service was easy."
"The product's initial setup phase is the best since we don't have to do anything. There is nothing like where you need to do some kind of scaling or capacity planning."
"It's very easy to get started on the solution. It's also easy to maintain, scale, and integrate according to cost factors."
"In general, there were a lot of great utilities for working with files."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is its performance."
"There are many functionalities. Fundamentally, it provides all the ready-to-use services for consumption between SaaS and other applications."
 

Cons

"The product needs to improve the self-help tools and samples."
"The initial setup was a bit complex as we were new."
"The product would be nice if it could provide the deployment features in the lower packages."
"Currently, when designing and testing larger workflows, the sessions timeout and re-authentications are frequently required."
"The software itself needs to keep up with the daily demand to service all clients as the need arises."
"The UI could be improved."
"We would like to see more learning videos for beginners."
"Oracle Integration Cloud Service can improve file handling. Currently, our real-time file polling limitation is 10 MB, if that size can be increased it would be helpful. For example, increasing the size from 10 MB to 1 GB."
"The solution's customer service could be better."
"Oracle-based automation blueprints for the majority of the integrations would be helpful to have in a future release."
"Dealing with the large file size has occasionally been a challenge."
"With JSON, if the tool provides support similar to XML, then it would be helpful."
"They should provide tutorials for beginners to learn about the processes."
"While most of the adapters are available through Oracle Integration Cloud Services, they do not have a lot of features. I would like to see some enrichment in this area and for the solution to go deeper into the applications and upgrade the adapters."
"Now the platform is not built in a way that you can define."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Oracle uses a universal credit model for OCI. Clients commit to an annual budget and can choose which products to use and build during their contract period. Billing is based on consumption - you're only billed for the products you use."
"The solution is less expensive than other products."
"Pricing is not on the economic side since it is a tool for enterprise-sized companies."
"It specifies how much data you use and how much storage you require, among other things."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is reasonable to start with, but when you scale it becomes expensive."
"The price is cheaper than all other cloud integration providers."
"In the case of Oracle Integration Cloud, costs can be "predictable" as far as the platform and infrastructure are concerned."
