We performed a comparison between Informatica PowerExchange, Oracle Data Integrator (ODI), and SnapLogic based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."The data transformation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The transformation work called for Informatica PowerExchange. It was easy to work with this and very stable."
"The most valuable feature is connectivity to data sources."
"The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"The scalability is excellent."
"The user interface and user experience are perfectly all right."
"The agentless RCDC enablement through PowerExchange is a great idea and has worked very well so far."
"One of the standout features of ODI is its ability to prepare everything on a vertical level and create reusable components, which adds to its value."
"Easy to understand, very developer-friendly, and has a big forum community and lots of documentation for support."
"It can integrate with more recent databases like Cassandra, Hadoop, and other more recent Big Data databases."
"All our systems can be widely integrated by ODI, such as transactional systems, our data warehouses, and B2B integration."
"It's completely user-friendly."
"Besides loading data, we do most of our transformations in ODI."
"The most valuable features of ODI are the ease of development, you can have a template, and you can onboard transfer very quickly. There's a lot of knowledge modules available that we can use. If you want to connect, for example, a Sibyl, SQL, Oracle, or different products, we don't have to develop them from scratch. They are available, but if it's not, we can go into the marketplace and see if there's a connector there. Having the connector available reduces the amount of hard work needed. We only have to put the inputs and outputs. In some of the products, we use there is already integration available for ODI, which is helpful."
"The product has an ELT approach."
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
"It is a stable solution."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"It is a scalable solution."
"SnapLogic is more user-friendly than Boomi in terms of debugging. You can move the mouse to a place, and it will record and show the data easily."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"I would like to have easier integration with cloud platforms."
"Technical support can be improved with respect to delays in ticket response time."
"The connectivity with T24 core banking could be improved."
"V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working."
"Pushdown optimization could be improved."
"I would like the stability to improve."
"The product is not suitable for application integration."
"The solution could be made more user-friendly. The configurations are also quite difficult."
"It would be really good if Oracle considered enabling the tool to integrate with some other platforms that are deprecated simply for commercial reasons"
"If there was an add-on tool to hide the performance issues and solve them for me, then I might be interested in that as it would provide me value."
"I rate it a seven out of 10 because there is room for growth because ODI is still new, in comparison to Informatica, which is a mature product."
"ODI could improve by focusing on streamlining its features without unnecessary overhead."
"The resource management aspect of the solution could be improved."
"ODI could improve the ease of use. There is a steep learning curve to use the solution."
"The price needs to be lowered. It's too expensive."
"The solution lacks some functions and features."
"One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"We'd like zero downtime in the future."
"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."
"The solution isn't ideal for complex processing or logic. We use another solution for that."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."
"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."
