A well-established product that meets all our specifications in terms of usability
In the initial stage when we went with Data Integrator Cloud Service it was primarily the nativity factor that was key for us. Having a single vendor supporting the entire suite of applications, and the ability to configure activities and direct integration with various other Oracle products, were the main attractive features within ODI. This is a well-established product that's good to have if you hold an Oracle suite of applications. It meets all our specifications in terms of usability.

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

"This is a well-established product that's good to have if you hold an Oracle suite of applications."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes integration faster."
"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"Oracle Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes the integration a little faster and makes it easier to implement the integration quickly."
"The most valuable thing to me is its simplicity. A person with zero knowledge can also develop the integration without having extensive technology knowledgebase. They can also work on creating their own integration."
"Oracle technical support for this product is excellent."
"My customers started to increase their ETL performance with great margins."
"ODI is a great ETL tool that you can use for implementation."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it integrates well with almost all technologies currently being used in my company."
"It uses the power of the database system efficiently."
"The most valuable feature of ODI is the to use of the whole ETL to create a data lake."
"The most valuable feature of ODI is the to use of the whole ETL to create a data lake."
"The tool is declarative, and it only runs on the target staging databases, so I have full control over it and I can change the SQL that the tool generates."
 

Cons

"Licensing costs for this Oracle solution are expensive. ODI forms an integral part of the overall PaaS solution and becomes a kind of backbone for that particular service, which is painful because from a PaaS perspective, the licensing costs just shoot off the roof."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
"The solution could be improved when it comes to bulk uploading; there are problems with it when you hit the upper limit."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"The solution is expensive."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"ODI could improve the ease of use. There is a steep learning curve to use the solution."
"Perhaps more learning resources related to ODI would be helpful."
"It lacks a suite of tools suitable for fully processing data and moving it into decision support warehouses."
"Prior to that, the agent was failing. I was having to check it all the time to see if the jobs ran."
"The resource management aspect of the solution could be improved."
"I would only point out some minor bugs or glitches in the development interface (ODI studio)."
"Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is already good as a solution. Still, it needs some editing of its preview package, or if the package is upgraded, that will make Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) even better."
"Oracle support services are not up to the mark."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is competitive compared to Boomi which is much higher."
"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great."
"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."
"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."
"The Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing isn't expensive, but it's not cheap, so it's in the middle. I'd rate the pricing as three out of five."
"The license can be costly, but in certain complex cases, ODI proves to be the optimal solution."
"The solution is expensive because of the model they use. The cost is for the license and for support."
"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."
"I rate the platform pricing as five out of ten."
