Sanjay Singh Bisht - PeerSpot reviewer

Hybrid data sync has minimized downtime and supports large cloud migrations efficiently
NetApp Cloud Sync is a very good product. When it comes to improvement, more detailed reporting and analytics can be available with richer dashboards for transfer performance, bandwidth usage, failed files, and historic trends. Smart handling of errors, such as clearer explanations for failed syncs and more actionable troubleshoot guidance, is needed as well. More granular scheduling and policy controls such as advanced filtering, bandwidth throttling by time of day, and finer control over sync behavior are also areas for improvement. Expanding cloud and storage integration would make it easier to connect to additional storage platforms and emerging cloud services. Lower source storage usage for the data broker and improved performance when synchronizing very large file systems containing millions of small files would be beneficial. Lastly, more automation options such as richer API and webhooks for tighter integration with infrastructure as code or DevOps workflows are also needed.

Facilitates complex data integration with ease and flexibility
It would be great if ODI could link the designer, mapping, and workflows in a more simplified manner, maybe in one combined interface. It would be excellent not to have to go into different areas to perform different activities but rather have a user-defined interface where we can configure a job, run it, monitor it, link packages, and link subprocesses all in one frame instead of having the designer separately, mapping separately, and monitoring and session management separately. With respect to data quality challenges, it would be great to give an option to fix data quality issues based on AI. Integrating AI with ODI that provides recommendations on how to fix those data quality issues after analyzing and profiling business data would be excellent. One of the main disadvantages of the Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it sometimes takes a lot of resources when handling multiple jobs. The scalability and the ability to handle multiple workloads of several parallel ETL jobs could use improvement, and certain parallel threads should be added along with the ability to configure multiple jobs from the same data directory structure.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Personally, the best features in NetApp Cloud Sync are its simplicity and trustworthiness."
"NetApp Cloud Sync has impacted my organization positively by significantly reducing downtime."
"The customer support for NetApp Cloud Sync is very good; support is provided immediately, and issues are resolved very quickly."
"It's scalable."
"Scalability-wise, 12c is the best in its class."
"ODI's best features are customization, integration with other versioning tools, and the ability to define new knowledge modules."
"It is an ETL tool, which does the extract, transform, and load."
"The features that we have applied to our project has helped us reduce manual effort and increased our scalability and growth."
"I think that ODI is one of the most complete and open solutions, since it can work with almost any technology and it gives you the ability to develop the same solution in a wide variety of ways depending on the one you prefer."
"So far, this product has been the best option for our organization, with more features and integration capabilities than other solutions."
"​All our systems can be widely integrated by ODI, such as transactional systems, our data warehouses, and B2B integration."
 

Cons

"A big drawback on the NetApp side is that because we started encountering remote home workers in our infrastructure, we started to encounter multiple incidents or requests for improvement related to latency."
"When it comes to improvement, more detailed reporting and analytics can be available with richer dashboards for transfer performance, bandwidth usage, failed files, and historic trends."
"Oracle takes a long time to respond and to provide a fix for issues. It takes, sometimes, up to eight weeks before Oracle will say that the issue is a bug."
"The tool should improve its pricing. It prevents the application of Oracle ODI on small and medium projects in countries like Croatia, Germany, or the US. While there are no technological obstacles to using it, the high price makes it unfeasible for projects with smaller budgets."
"Reverse engineering is complicated and challenging to manage."
"The GUI is Java based, and is less than friendly."
"We used a third party to do the implementation of ODI."
"With ODI there is a lot of manual work to be done with the initial setup."
"They need to work on the multiuser development environment and include the ability to comply with different kinds of SDLCs."
"The Oracle Data Integrator interface is extremely slow, especially when using remote desktop connections."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is expensive because of the model they use. The cost is for the license and for support."
"Per user, it is $900 USD per year, though they will give some discount. However, even a 60% to 70% of discount for each won't help us much. On top of that, there is the perpetual license you must pay at the outset."
"The solution is very expensive."
"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."
"The license can be costly, but in certain complex cases, ODI proves to be the optimal solution."
"ODI comes included when buying the cloud version of the Oracle database license."
"I rate the platform pricing as five out of ten."
"Being an ODI developer, I never had to pay for this product. I know that the pricing/licensing is not really low, but the product is really good."
