We performed a comparison between IBM App Connect and Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the user-friendliness of the application."
"I would say that the most valuable feature is the array of connectors and integration tools."
"App Connect's best feature is that it can be deployed in a container."
"When using IBM stacks, IBM App Connect is suitable and integrates well with other IBM products like WebSphere."
"Technical support is good."
"It has different type of interfaces that can integrate with companies."
"Provides good security features."
"It's stable to use, connect with the cloud, and to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is Data movement."
"ODI is a very accessible tool, especially since the mapping functionality has been added."
"ODI's best features are customization, integration with other versioning tools, and the ability to define new knowledge modules."
"ODI's most valuable features are it utilizes the database engine and is very lightweight."
"All ETL code is stored in repositories in underlying database schemas. The number of users can access and work on the same solution using a client tool. So distributed teams can work on this tool in an efficient manner."
"It allows us to use many languages to develop and to integrate practically all the technologies of the Oracle suite as well as those from non-Oracle vendors."
"The installation of the client ODI Studio is easy."
"The CAEM is very useful in its modularity and portability."
"The product should improve its support."
"IBM App Connect should improve security features."
"They reply in one or two hours at most, but they could be better."
"It is not easy to deploy. It requires someone with a high level of knowledge in the solution to deploy it, not just anyone can do it."
"The addition of string functionality would be a benefit, particularly in the ESQL space that IBM already uses internally."
"IBM App Connect is scalable. From the administration side, they need to improve the RBAC model, as well as the clustering of this product. It will be good if we can start up the cluster, via IBM Connect Console. Some other products like MuleSoft, are providing this type of administration. MuleSoft is easy to use and user friendly."
"The installation of containers could be simplified, as it currently requires a senior-level installer."
"The setup time for App Connect could be improved."
"Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is already good as a solution. Still, it needs some editing of its preview package, or if the package is upgraded, that will make Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) even better."
"The performance of the user interface is in need of improvement."
"It has been very good. Just recently, I've faced an issue, but I solved it somehow. While integrating with a file, I faced an issue where I wanted output files, and I had used the text field limited quotations, but at the end of the file, there was a line breakage for the last column. So, we just removed the text field because it was not working correctly for us."
"ODI could improve by being more user-friendly. Informatica, which is also an ETL tool, similar to ODI, but Informatica is very user-friendly, easy to use, and simple to integrate, compared to ODI. ODI has many features, put them all together, and sometimes we get confused about which ones to use, which ones not to use."
"ODI could improve the ease of use. There is a steep learning curve to use the solution."
"Stability could be improved because some operators have issues."
"If you have something like Cisco on top of it, you will have endless problems."
"The resource management aspect of the solution could be improved."
