Easy drag-and-drop interface and supports custom Python functions, but the performance needs to be better
The memory processing needs to be improved because when you deal with a large amount of data, the interface tends to hang a little bit. When the system boots up, it can take between two and five minutes, depending on the system memory (RAM). If the system is low on memory then it takes a long time to start up. If you are not familiar with Python then this product will be a little more difficult for you. It can take a long time to migrate from one version to the next because there are a lot of processes to deal with.

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 drag-and-drop functionality makes it easy for business users."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is performance."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable thing is that it is easy to connect with Microsoft tools. In Europe, particularly in France, a lot of companies use Excel, SQL Server, and other Microsoft tools, and it is easier to connect SSIS with Microsoft tools than other products."
"The setup is straightforward. It's very easy to install."
"It has a drag and drop feature that makes it easy to use. It has a good user experience because it takes into account your most-used tools and they're lined up nicely so you can just drag and drop without looking too far. It also integrates nicely with Microsoft."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is its ease of use. It is easier to use than other applications."
"The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration."
"This solution is easy to implement, has a wide variety of connectors, has support for Visual Basic, and supports the C language."
 

Cons

"The memory processing needs to be improved because when you deal with a large amount of data, the interface tends to hang a little bit."
"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."
"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."
"Generic processes should be used instead of custom code for each table."
"It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution."
"We'd like them to develop data exploration more."
"The debugging could be improved because when it came to solving the errors that I've experienced in the past, I've had to look at the documentation for more information."
"Sometimes when we want to publish to other types of databases it's not easy to publish to those databases. For example, the Jet Database Engine. Before the SSIS supported Jet Database Engine but nowadays it doesn't support the Jet Database Engine. We connect to many databases such as Access database, SparkPros databases and the other types of databases using Jet Database Engines now and SSIS now doesn't seem to support it in our databases."
"Video training would be a helpful addition."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The open-source version is free to use, although it has a limitation of two-million records."
"It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
"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."
"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."
"We purchased the standard edition of SQL Server and SSIS came with it free of charge."
"SSIS is fairly well-priced - I would rate it at four out of five."
"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
"SSIS' licensing is a little high, but it gives good value for money."
"SSIS is a cheaper option compared to the cost of other ETL tools."
