Deliver Head - Database and Infrastructure Cloud Services at Tech Mahindra Limited
Fast, has good extraction, validation, and transformation features, and provides good support
Though validation is good and fast enough in Oracle Data Quality, an area for improvement is the accuracy of the validation. Though the solution offers multidimensional validation, it needs a bit more improvement in the accuracy aspect because smaller products can offer better accuracy in terms of validation compared to Oracle Data Quality. What I'd like to see from the solution in its next release, is an increase in compliances and regulations that would allow it to cover all industries because multiple verticals demand data quality nowadays, and this improvement will be helpful as Oracle Data Quality is an in-built delivered solution.
Ramesh Pampana - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager, SAP Practice at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
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

"I have found the most valuable features to be data cleansing and deduplication."
"Oracle EDQ is indeed a state-of-the-art tool that will help you understand, improve, protect, and govern the quality of your enterprise data in a single integrated and collaborative environment."
"The quality of data has vastly improved and our business intelligence reports are accurate in real time."
"I'd recommend this solution to anyone who is using data quality or would want to know the quality of data in their company and fix the data."
"However, I think Oracle Data Quality is definitely worth giving a try."
"The features I like most about Oracle Data Quality include extraction, transformation, and validation, which makes it a multipurpose product such as Oracle GoldenGate and Oracle Data Integrator. I also like that Oracle Data Quality is very fast, so you can use it for a large volume of data within a short period. You have to do the validation very quickly, so the solution helps in that area of data quality. Another feature of Oracle Data Quality that I like is the MDM (Master Data Management) where you'll have a single source of protection, and this makes the solution perfect and helpful to my company."
"Compared to the competition, Oracle Data Quality is a very flexible and advanced product."
"Oracle Data Quality gives you value for money and better ROI, especially when it's deployed on the cloud, because it's fast, ready to use, and you can just subscribe and provision it, then start using it without great effort for setup, installation, or configuration."
"The solution is easy to use since it's a graphical tool. It also requires only low-level coding."
"It's easy to understand and deploy, it's easy to create new applications, and depending on the complexity of the application, it is easy to deploy the new requirements."
"Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable; it is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools, has very good integration with SAP, and also has the capabilities to connect to other systems, which we find very helpful and stable."
"Technical support from SAP is awesome. If we have an issue, they give a good solution."
"Data Services' table comparison mechanism is very powerful. It's pretty hard to find a similar feature in other solutions."
"The API tool in this product is very valuable; it is very easy to onboard and use."
"After working with the tool for so many years, I can say that overall their services are a really good deal."
"I like how SAP Data Services links reporting and data integration. That's what's most interesting. You also have the opportunity to leverage the power of the Data Services server."
 

Cons

"Oracle Data Quality should integrate with data warehousing solutions such as Azure and CWS Office. For example, having the ability to integrate with tools, such as Azure Synapse and SQL data warehousing would be a great benefit."
"The initial setup was complicated, there is a lot of configuration that needs to be done."
"Mobile support and mobile app can be implemented, since business users generally prefers to work with their laptops and mobile phones."
"There are some challenges with respect to standardization, matching, segregation, and merging."
"Oracle is currently not that intuitive. We need to use programmers to write code for a lot of the procedures. We need to have them write CL SQL code and write a CL script."
"Though validation is good and fast enough in Oracle Data Quality, an area for improvement is the accuracy of the validation. Though the solution offers multidimensional validation, it needs a bit more improvement in the accuracy aspect because smaller products can offer better accuracy in terms of validation compared to Oracle Data Quality. What I'd like to see from the solution in its next release, is an increase in compliances and regulations that would allow it to cover all industries because multiple verticals demand data quality nowadays, and this improvement will be helpful as Oracle Data Quality is an in-built delivered solution."
"We have experienced some system crashes i.e. when tying to run Data Profiling Processes for very large data sets."
"Integration performance and availability of out of the box integration to more products (ERP Tools, Data Cleansing Software etc.)."
"Dealing with the REST API is not easy with Data Services. It is mandatory to have a WADL file and it is difficult to find this file and set it up."
"They could make it easier to work with web services."
"The interface of SAP Data Services is still easy to use, but it is also dated as things are evolving."
"I want some more business intelligence applications. People need to know more and more about data, including the transformation rules, etc. Informatica is a better product for data cataloging. SAP should update the data catalog."
"The support is poor because of the time and the knowledge of the support team."
"There needs to be multi-language support, however, my understanding is they are working on multi-language now."
"An area that seems to need to be improved in this product is that it isn't completely ready to compete as it should in the market."
"The solution could improve the overall features. There is a lot that can be done in the solution, therefor there are areas where it can improve. Additionally, there is a need to make it easier for one to create connections to other non-SAP systems. The flexibility to connect to other non-SAP systems is needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The vendor needs to revisit their pricing strategy."
"The price of this solution is comparable to other similar solutions."
"Its pricing is as per the enterprise agreement and not a concern for us."
"It's relatively expensive compared to other vendors, but it is competitive."
"The price of SAP Data Services is a little high when compared to other solutions. Due to the pricing and capabilities, many clients are switching to other solutions."
"There is a one time purchase fee plus annual maintenance."
"The product’s on-premise version is expensive for a medium-sized company."
"Speaking about prices, Oracle and SAP are market leaders. So, the prices are more."
"I rate the product price as one or two on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"The price is very reasonable."
