We performed a comparison between JumpMind SymmetricDS, SSIS, and TIBCO BusinessWorks based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about NetApp, Fivetran, Dell Technologies and others in Data Replication."It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
"The setup is straightforward. It's very easy to install."
"The initial setup was easy."
"It's already very user-friendly and has a good dashboard."
"The most valuables features are the relatively short learning curve, and the automation capabilities provided through the BIML add-in for SSDT."
"You can get data from any data source with SSIS and dump it to any outside source. It is helpful. Getting, extracting, converting, and dumping data doesn't require much effort because we can do everything in the user interface. You drag and drop, then give the required input. It's intuitive."
"It is easily scheduled and integrates well with SQL Server and SQL Server Agent jobs."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is its ease of use. It is easier to use than other applications."
"SSIS is easy to use."
"I work in operations, so I value BusinessWorks' performance the most."
"BusinessWorks reduces development time, helping developers to focus on business logic."
"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with."
"It is user friendly, it's not complex."
"We use the solution to develop applications."
"Good performance and reliability."
"The most valuable feature is the low-code platform."
"It is a very robust system."
"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"We have issues with SSIS connectors while extracting data from Excel sources."
"It hangs a lot of the time."
"Microsoft's technical support has decreased in quality over the last few years, becoming less responsive and tending to pass problems on instead of solving them."
"There were some issues when we tried to connect it to data storage. It was a connection issue."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"The creation of the measure in the DAC's model could be improved."
"Sometimes we need to connect to AWS to get additional data sources, so we have to install some external LAN and not a regular RDBMS. We need external tools to connect. It would be great if SSIS included these tools. I'd also like some additional features for row indexing and data conversion."
"I have a tool called ZappySys. I need that tool to cut down on the complexity of SSIS. That tool really helps with a quick turnaround. I can do things quickly, and I can do things accurately. I can get better reporting on errors."
"Scaling with the solution is costly because if we need to scale up, we have to buy more memory. That means more money. Solutions like Camel or Pulsar come with built-in options to scale horizontally, vertically, region-wide or country-wide."
"There are multiple plugins which increase the number of product installations."
"Its price can be improved. For medium enterprises, it is a very expensive tool. In the market, you won't get many resources for this solution. You won't find many developers in the market very easily. The latest version of TIBCO (6.4 or 6.x) is not very stable. It has got many issues. We have raised this with TIBCO, and they are taking a lot of time to come up with a fix, which is making us move away from this product. Some of the performance-tuning aspects are also missing in version 6. They should provide performance-related fixes, which will be helpful for the customers. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The product has evolved, but it is very pricey. That's one of the challenges. They have provided all the features that are there in other products, but this is a platform upgrade. The platform has completely been changed from 5.x to 6.x, and we can't use the same environment. We can't run both versions on the same server as VM. The development environment is entirely different. In version 5.x, there was a proprietary designer. Now, it has common plug-ins developed on top of Eclipse."
"A possible improvement could be to give the capability to use different profiles for each AppNode when an application is deployed on an AppSpace."
"The initial setup is not easy."
"Though it is a stable product, if we have an issue with the product, it gets difficult, and it gets really difficult to explain the issue to the support team. Also, it takes a long time to get resolved."
"Cloud fitness is lacking"
"The cost of this product is too expensive for smaller companies or those with a small number of integrations."
