Find out what your peers are saying about NetApp, Fivetran, Dell Technologies and others in Data Replication."The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to incorporate very complex business rules in Data Stage."
"Offers great flexibility."
"The solution has improved the time it takes to perform tasks related to batch applications."
"The solution's scalability is really good...we are using multi-instance jobs where you can scale them easily."
"IBM is stable and accurate to monitor. It's easy to understand to monitor the data lineage from source to target."
"Highly customizable: Allowing you to handle multiple data latencies (scheduled batch, on-demand, and real-time) in the same job."
"DataStage works better with Linux operating systems when the application services are hosted on Linux system equipment, but it's powerful on Windows too."
"The data lineage report can be filtered for reporting. The reports are user-friendly and take less time to find what you need."
"This product would be improved with additional built-in functions for simpler date conversion, as well as for data type transformations."
"Pricing is an area that needs improvement."
"There are three things that could improve - the cloud, monitoring and cloud integration. It's a solid product but not a modern one and of course it depends what you're looking for."
"Its documentation is not up to the mark. While building APIs, we had a lot of problems trying to get around it because it is not very user-friendly. We tried to get hold of API documentation, but the documentation is not very well thought out. It should be more structured and elaborate. In terms of additional features, I would like to see good reporting on performance and performance-tuning recommendations that can be based on AI. I would also like to see better data profiling information being reported on InfoSphere."
"What needs improvement in IBM InfoSphere DataStage is its pricing. The pricing for the solution is higher than its competitors, so a lot of the clients my company has worked with prefer other tools over IBM InfoSphere DataStage because of the high price tag. Another area for improvement in the solution stems from a lot of new types of databases, for example, databases in the cloud and big data have become available, and IBM InfoSphere DataStage is working on various connectors for different data sources, but that still isn't up-to-date, meaning that some connectors are missing for modern data sources. The latest version of IBM InfoSphere DataStage also has a complex architecture, so my team faced frequent outages and that should be improved as well."
"The solution can be a bit more user-friendly, similar to Informatica."
"The interface needs improvement. It is really too technical. That is the main problem."
"I want the tool to continue with the on-prem version, not the cloud one."
"DataStage is quite expensive. It is too hard to find a consultant using DataStage in Turkey."
"The graphical user interface (GUI) feels a lot like the interfaces from the 1980s."
