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.

Has consistently provided impressive data handling capabilities and robust security features
Some of the most valuable features of SAP Data Services include data extraction where SAP is the best in that perspective, but when it comes to analytics or the reporting tool, I prefer to connect with Microsoft Power BI, which is a fantastic tool. Typically, from an end-user perspective, SAP has a huge amount of data, in terms of terabytes of data, but when you analyze that, the best form of visualization is always through Microsoft Power BI. SAP Data Services provides a best-in-class return on investment, as SAP's vision and forecast are absolutely amazing. They are ahead of technology, building an ecosystem that meets the standards of the fast-changing digital economy. SAP is indeed good at all this now, with so many components such as SAP Signavio, SAP EINS, SAP Work Zone, SAP ALM, Cloud ALM, SAP public cloud, SAP private cloud, and BTP, all of which are essential to meet the latest cutting-edge technologies.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"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."
"The solution is very stable and it's great once you get it working correctly."
"The data is stored in the cloud, making it easy to download data simultaneously into multiple smaller servers, effectively downsizing the process."
"Having a single vendor supporting the entire suite of applications."
"This is a well-established product that's good to have if you hold an Oracle suite of applications."
"Oracle Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"The reporting on the data, even from third-party software, is very good."
"The most valuable feature is the ETL functionality."
"The maintenance of data services is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The HANA database, which is very fast, is a valuable feature."
"It is a powerful product with a broad range of features."
"Having different ways of extracting data has been very useful; we can extract data at a table level, extract data at the ETL level, and we can extract data at an ODP level."
"The most valuable feature is the user interface."
"SAP works well for the financial side of the business, but for anybody who is researching solutions for incident management, I suggest that they use another product."
 

Cons

"It can be made much easier for users. They should be allowed to easily monitor the data extraction and flow, allowing them to observe real-time data flow within the software, making the process straightforward."
"The solution is expensive."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"I would like to see different cloud adapters or connectors in case of integration. When you have Oracle to Oracle, they are good. They have really good connectors, but if it is a different ERP, like Obsidian, that is where they are faced with problems in OIC."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"This is an expensive solution compared to other products on the market."
"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."
"The solution could be improved when it comes to bulk uploading; there are problems with it when you hit the upper limit."
"SAP Data Services should be made a web-based solution."
"The execution engines and processing engines have shortcomings and need improvements."
"There should be some kind of enhancement that can be done on the admin side of certain sites where we can assign the roles and responsibilities. We should be able to control who is using the tool and how."
"We would like the different tools offered within this solution to be available as standalone entities, rather than having to purchase the entire package when we only require a few features."
"Sometimes when upgrading the product, the program corrupts and needs to be completely removed. It wastes a lot of time."
"I have several issues with this solution. The embedded features that SAP Data Services offers are not enough for me to implement everything that I want."
"They could make it easier to work with web services."
"The solution shows a lack of cloud support data services."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is competitive compared to Boomi which is much higher."
"The license price is expensive but medium to large-scale companies, should be able to afford it. Other solutions, such as Talend are easier to afford for smaller companies. Depending on the sources of the data where you are receiving your data you could be paying for more than one license."
"There is a one time purchase fee plus annual maintenance."
"The price is very reasonable."
"At the entry level, if you're using it only for data integration, it is a little bit cheap. However, for large organizations it can be expensive. There are additional costs apart from the license."
"The product’s on-premise version is expensive for a medium-sized company."
"Pricing is good, there is no problem."
"The pricing is a little high to make the product more competetive in the marketplace."
"The enterprise version of SAP Data Services is free."
