We performed a comparison between IBM InfoSphere DataStage and webMethods.io Integration 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 best feature of IBM InfoSphere DataStage for me was that it was very much user-friendly. The solution didn't require that much raw coding because most of its features were drag and drop, plus it had a large number of functionalities."
"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 product is a stable and powerful data management solution that can run in parallel mode for enhanced speed."
"When we have needed help from the IBM team, they were helpful. Our company is a premium partner so we get fast responses."
"Finding logs is very easy on the solution."
"The product is easy to deploy."
"The solution's scalability is really good...we are using multi-instance jobs where you can scale them easily."
"Highly customizable: Allowing you to handle multiple data latencies (scheduled batch, on-demand, and real-time) in the same job."
"The solution is scalable."
"I like the tool's scalability."
"The connectivity that the tool provides, along with the functionalities needed for our company's business, are some of the beneficial aspects of the product."
"There's hardware, software and application integration, providing hosting flexibility."
"Oracle's self-service capabilities, of which we make extensive use, is the most valuable feature."
"Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration."
"It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."
"The interface needs work to be more user-friendly."
"The response time from support is slow and needs to be improved."
"The template mapping could be easier."
"In terms of intermediate storage, we have some challenges, especially with customers who store data in intermediate locations."
"We would be happy to see in next versions the ability to return several parameters from jobs. Now, jobs can return just one parameter. If they could return several parameters, that would be great."
"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."
"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."
"webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors."
"Rules engine processes and BPM processes should be improved."
"It is difficult to maintain."
"The products, at the moment, are new and there should perhaps be support for the older version of the protocols."
"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The solution's release management feature could be better."
