User-friendly interface facilitates efficient data migration and reduces operational overhead
Its usability and ease of use are standout features. It is really easy to use - almost too easy at times. Users don't have to be experts to use their tool set and utilize the clicking mechanisms, drop down boxes, and other features to build a package and run it. The configuration is very easy and the system is very stable. I would rate it at a 10 as it is highly reliable; we have never had any problems with it. Very little maintenance is required on my side. While you need to keep the product up to date, the maintenance requirements are minimal. SSIS integrates with all Microsoft tools seamlessly. We have used it against Oracle, DB2 and SQL. It integrates and can move data around from any data platforms, making it very diverse in that standpoint. It is a very robust tool that can work with many data sources, and its main strength is that it is extremely easy to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
"It's a good product that is user-friendly and easy to manage, and I would recommend it to others."
"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"The setup was easy. All Microsoft products are easy to set up."
"The reporting on the solution is perfect. I didn't expect to see reporting features, but they are great."
"Compatibility with the rest of Microsoft BI stack"
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is its ease of use. It is easier to use than other applications."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"We like that this solution includes a developer edition, free of charge, to allow for training."
"It is well designed and quite straightforward, with not much of a learning curve involved, and it is a well-documented solution."
"Stability is rated at 10."
 

Cons

"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."
"We'd like them to develop data exploration more."
"A change in the metadata source cripples the whole ETL process, requiring each module to be manually reopened."
"I'm not a fan of SSIS itself."
"Sometimes when we want to publish to other types of databases it's not easy to publish to those databases."
"SSIS has room for improvement, mainly because the overall package can be buggy. It often locks up, requiring a restart, which is annoying. However, since it's free, we tolerate these performance issues. I'd like to see better debugging tools in future releases and improvements in API calls; It would be helpful if SSIS had a built-in API engine so we wouldn't have to rely solely on database connections."
"The performance of this solution is not as good as other tools in the market."
"We have issues with SSIS connectors while extracting data from Excel sources."
"We In upgrading SSIS, we encountered challenges fixing SQL Server and performance issues, including problems during a failover in our data warehouse."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers pay a license fee yearly."
"I found the price to be quite reasonable."
"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
"Depending on the arrangement that a certain company has with Microsoft, it may supply the permanent license that is included in the SQL server license, or it may be a time-bound license if it is a partner license or other enterprise license."
"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."
"t's incredibly cost effective, easy to learn the basics quickly (although like all ETL tools requires the traditional learning curve to get good at) and has an immense user base."
"This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
"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."
"People have to opt for a perpetual-based licensing model."
"The solution comes free of cost."
