Data pipelines have saved time and improve accuracy for daily operations and projects
I believe Hevo can be improved by preparing some guidelines or a manual that any database engineer or related professional can utilize for day-to-day activity. If the support is connected or easily accessible, that could be an improvement. In addition to the points I mentioned, I think AI compatibility is crucial, as everything is becoming more advanced these days, so if that feature has been advanced or upgraded, it would be beneficial. I find the accuracy of Hevo's output to be better, though it can still be improved. I don't have any other improvements needed for Hevo beyond the documentation, support access, and advanced AI capabilities I've mentioned.

Reporting has become streamlined for year-end data checks but integration still needs improvement
When I talk about SQL Server, I am working with SSIS, the data integration tool. I am not entirely sure if I use SSIS as a library of transformations or if I personally work with an extensive library of transformations. I have integrated SSIS with SQL Server Management Studio, and I am very satisfied with the integration as it is integrated well. I am not using the debugging feature in SSIS because the developers would be the ones that would actually utilize it. I have noticed that in 2022, AI functionality has actually been implemented already. I would rate this review overall at a 7.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Hevo has positively impacted my organization by ensuring excellent usage of collected data, which is utilized in various workflows, including sales and marketing and customer relationship management, ultimately helping me serve clients better."
"Hevo positively impacted my organization by allowing us to move data quickly and easily, enabling us to focus on our real challenge: performing analytics and reporting out of Snowflake with all customer data centralized despite using various applications."
"My advice for anyone in database roles, such as administrators, data engineers, or analysts, is to start using Hevo to save time."
"The transformation of data is very good in SSIS."
"You can get data from any data source with SSIS and dump it to any outside source, and getting, extracting, converting, and dumping data doesn't require much effort because we can do everything in the user interface where you just drag and drop and then give the required input, so it's intuitive."
"Despite the complexity when dealing with advanced transformations, it is straightforward for simple data movements, and the performance is excellent."
"The main value of any Microsoft product is the ease of use."
"The solution is easy to use and developer friendly."
"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"It is the most valuable for staff processes in order to gain efficiency."
"It has a drag and drop feature that makes it easy to use. It has a good user experience because it takes into account your most-used tools and they're lined up nicely so you can just drag and drop without looking too far. It also integrates nicely with Microsoft."
 

Cons

"I find the accuracy of Hevo's output to be better, though it can still be improved."
"Hevo could be improved as we hit limits, particularly when it couldn't keep up with the high number of databases we wanted to sync frequently—ideally updating everything hourly for near real-time analytics rather than a day behind."
"There are areas where Hevo could improve, particularly regarding its cost structure, as the pricing is based on usage and the advanced features can become costly for startups that are not well-established."
"This solution is stable, but the performance is not good."
"Sometimes, there are compatibility issues with some features."
"I would like to see more standard components out of the box, such as SFTP, and Data Compression components."
"It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution."
"You have to write push down join & lookup SQL to the database yourself via stored procedures or use of the SQL Task to get very high performance. That said, this is a common complaint for nearly all ETL tools on the market and those that offer an alternative such as Informatica offer them at a very expensive add-on price."
"SSIS is stable, but extensive ETL data processing can have some performance issues."
"SSIS is not that scalable. You can scale it vertically to handle a high load, but it lacks horizontal scalability."
"The performance of SSIS could improve when comparing it to Oracle Database."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"SSIS is a cheaper option compared to the cost of other ETL tools."
"If you don't want to pay a lot of money, you can go for SSIS, as its open-source version is available. When it comes to licensing, SSIS can be expensive."
"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
"This solution is a free of charge addition to our SQL licence. However, the only way this tool can be utilized is as a feature of the SQL licence, which may make it unattractive to organizations who don't wish to purchase the wider-ranging licence."
"It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
"Our license with SSIS is annual."
"We have an enterprise license for this solution."
