Offers a very good development environment and supports the use of multiple programming languages
We are using a graphical tool called PowerDesigner to create logical and physical models. From that, we create code that can be run by Oracle Data Integrator, which then maps the data based on these models and sends it to its destination. It is currently very integrated with Oracle The Oracle…

Good management and pricing but not great for enterprise environments
In a high-density location, we're running into connectivity drops. There may be too many rouge devices broadcasting, and the devices is getting interference from another channel. The only to fix this is to reboot and we need something that reboots on the fly. We also need better security for VLANs and VPNs. There are issues with certain Apple devices. Technical support is not very helpful. The initial setup, which seemed straightforward at first, had to be redone. This may not have been the fault of the product. We're not sure what went wrong.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) has a straightforward setup and offers good technical support."
"The solution's initial setup is straightforward, especially compared to Mule, which our team has worked with before and found to be a bit more complex in terms of setup."
"The most valuable features of ODI are the knowledge modules, such as the Loading Knowledge module and the Check Knowledge module, they are helpful. We can check for the constraints in ODI. That helps in figuring out what are the constraints that are the primary keys created in the tables. We can check them with the Check Knowledge module."
"One of the standout features of ODI is its ability to prepare everything on a vertical level and create reusable components, which adds to its value."
"ODI's best features are customization, integration with other versioning tools, and the ability to define new knowledge modules."
"​All our systems can be widely integrated by ODI, such as transactional systems, our data warehouses, and B2B integration."
"In our DW/BI solution, ODI is the main tool to integrate the data in a daily batch way."
"The most valuable feature of ODI is the to use of the whole ETL to create a data lake."
"The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy."
"It's easy to manage and support the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem."
 

Cons

"An area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is real-time integration. Currently, my company has a workaround to implement real-time integration, an area on which Oracle must focus more. Real-time integration should be easier in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI). Another area for improvement in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is integration with more publishers and subscribers rather than just database integrations."
"Stability could be improved because some operators have issues."
"ODI could improve by being more user-friendly. Informatica, which is also an ETL tool, similar to ODI, but Informatica is very user-friendly, easy to use, and simple to integrate, compared to ODI. ODI has many features, put them all together, and sometimes we get confused about which ones to use, which ones not to use."
"ODI could improve by focusing on streamlining its features without unnecessary overhead."
"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."
"I would only point out some minor bugs or glitches in the development interface (ODI studio)."
"There could be better compatibility with other ETL tools and cloud platforms."
"In our company, we haven't tried consuming services from IoT in our company yet, and I would like to know if the solution will support IoT services in the next release."
"There are issues with certain Apple devices."
"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license can be costly, but in certain complex cases, ODI proves to be the optimal solution."
"I rate the platform pricing as five out of ten."
"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."
"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."
"I have yet to determine the exact figure for Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing, but it has lower pricing than Informatica."
"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great."
"ODI comes included when buying the cloud version of the Oracle database license."
"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."
"There is no license. The solution is free."
