Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."The solution is very easy to use."
"The solution has improved the time it takes to perform tasks related to batch applications."
"The product is easy to deploy."
"When we have needed help from the IBM team, they were helpful. Our company is a premium partner so we get fast responses."
"Offers great flexibility."
"It works with multiple servers and offers high availability."
"The solution's scalability is really good...we are using multi-instance jobs where you can scale them easily."
"In IBM DataStage, the Transformer is the most valuable feature for me. It enables me to apply complex transformations, generate the gateway key, and map source tables into the session table."
"It is a highly robust software solution."
"Working with some of the big data components is good, but I can see improvements are needed."
"It takes a lot of time to actually trigger your job and then go into the logs and other stuff. So all of this is really time-consuming."
"The interface needs improvement."
"So, there are some features that are missing. If I compare DataStage to Talend, Talend allows you to write custom code in Java or use these tools in your applications as well if you are building a job application. But in DataStage, it does not allow you to write custom code for any component."
"The interface needs improvement. It is really too technical. That is the main problem."
"The graphical user interface (GUI) feels a lot like the interfaces from the 1980s."
"I'd like to be able to do more with the data and metadata, including copy and pasting, et cetera."
"It doesn't have any big data connections. It would be good to have them because most of the systems are moving towards big data. There should also be a user-friendly way to interact with the cloud. Its loading process is very slow. It takes a lot of time for around 5 or 6 million records, and we are not able to provide real-time data to the vendors due to this delay. Its performance needs to be improved. It is also like a legacy system. It is not updated much. In higher versions, they only do small changes. We would like to have new features and new technologies."
"The primary challenge with Teradata lies in its cost structure, encompassing subscription fees, software licenses, and hardware expenses."
