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.

Quick to set up, flexible, and stable
The scheduling part I don't like due to the fact that it allows you to schedule as a parent and child and other things, however, the error trackability has to be a little more user-friendly. It's also not user-friendly in the sense that it loads all the jobs and there are not enough filters so that it doesn't need to load everything. If the job fails, you don't get any type of alert or email. It would be ideal if there was some sort of automated alert message. Technical support isn't the best. It would be ideal if we understood how to do it in a card exception regarding exclusion, where the card is captured separately rather than filling the whole process on the data inbound side. Certain workloads like this are organized in such a way where you seem to be doubling the work as opposed to streamlining the process.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"This is a well-established product that's good to have if you hold an Oracle suite of applications."
"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"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 Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"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 solution is very stable and it's great once you get it working correctly."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes integration faster."
"Documentation has excellent potential as it provides the capability to generate data lineage and a complete set of rich documentation and output in multiple formats."
"RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."
"Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions."
"The most valuable feature is the metadata generated code."
"Quickly develops a data warehouse for our organization with documentation and can track back/forward features."
"It has a built-in automatic scheduling environment."
"I found the initial setup very easy."
"The tool supports multiple target update methods."
 

Cons

"Bulk uploading can be a problem when you hit the upper limit."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"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 is expensive."
"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."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
"The ability to execute SSIS projects within WhereScape would be nice because we have a lot of packages that are too cumbersome to recreate."
"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."
"I don't think the solution is very stable. Even though I like this tool numerous bugs made it difficult and unreliable."
"Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"Customization could be better. When you need to modify or write some custom code, it can get a little messy."
"As with any product, there are things that can be improved, but most are fairly minor, including things like greater flexibility in ordering job tasks."
"Technical support isn't the best. They seem to be more money-oriented than customer-oriented. We found that after the purchase, assistance and support really dropped off."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is competitive compared to Boomi which is much higher."
"Speed to market of a warehouse solution at a relatively inexpensive price point."
"Factor in the price of specialized consulting who know this product. They're hard to find and expensive."
"Our company purchased a corporate unlimited license."
"ROI is at least 10 times."
