Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The initial setup of Oracle Integration Cloud Service was easy.""The initial setup is easy.""Oracle Integration Cloud Service integrates well and is user-friendly. If you are not a developer or ops engineer you can still use the solution with ease. You do not need to have developers' knowledge, you can easily adapt and learn quickly to integrate the services. They have good documentation.""People are able to scale up, learn it quickly, and start delivering.""The most valuable features of Oracle Integration Cloud Service are the seeded integrations with many communication platforms, such as Slack and emails. It works best for the historical communication methods. Those are still prevalent with all the other clients. When we are doing the integrations, it makes it a little bit easier for us to communicate the same output over Slack, rather than sending out an email and downloading the report. The number of seeded functionalities within the Oracle Integration Cloud Service platform is better.""I particularly like the drag-and-drop feature for designing integrations and processes.""The dashboard provided by Oracle Integration Cloud for monitoring and error handling is very intuitive.""The most valuable features of this solution are the SFTP adapters, file adapters, and risk adapters, that we use in everyday projects."

More Oracle Integration Cloud Service Pros →

"I have found its most valuable features to be its package management capabilities and the flexibility it offers in designing workflows.""The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration.""The most valuable thing is that it is easy to connect with Microsoft tools. In Europe, particularly in France, a lot of companies use Excel, SQL Server, and other Microsoft tools, and it is easier to connect SSIS with Microsoft tools than other products.""It's saved time using visualization descriptions.""It is easy to set up. The deployment is also very quick.""The initial setup was easy.""Data Flows are the main component we use. These can range from a simple source to sink ETL, to many source to many sink dataflows.""The data reader is the most valuable feature."

More SSIS Pros →

Cons
"The support and resources were lacking — they weren't there.""There is a payload size limit and we're unable to integrate some legacy applications.""The error retrying mechanism could be improved. If an error occurs, it can be retried automatically, it would be helpful.""The solution is expensive.""Our client was quite concerned about the cost, which is something that could be reduced.""Sometimes, the tech support is slow to get back to us. We have had to wait up to two weeks for a response.""We would love to have more and more ready-to-use interfaces from Oracle.""In designer mode, sometimes the browser closure or other unknown issues can cause strange behavior, which requires a restart."

More Oracle Integration Cloud Service Cons →

"The interface could use improvement, as well as the administrative tools. Jobs fail from time to time for different reasons. It's not a problem with Microsoft, or SSIS itself. The problems are external, but to find the problems and analyze them it takes too much time.""It should have other programming languages supported as well from a scripting perspective. Currently, only C# and VB.NET are supported, which limits it to .NET. It should have Java support as well.""I would like to see better integration with Power BI.""It would be nice if you could run SSIS on other environments besides Windows.""Microsoft should offer an on-premises support warranty for those using that deployment. They seem to be withdrawing from on-premises options.""Options for scaling could be improved.""SSIS can improve by the minimum code requirements in stored procedures and exporting data is difficult. They could make it easier, it should be as easy as it is to import data.""Video training would be a helpful addition."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It specifies how much data you use and how much storage you require, among other things."
  • "The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is good. It is reasonable and is priced well for the market segment. The model they use is on a per-package unit and we have a two-year subscription."
  • "The solution is less expensive than other products."
  • "The price is fair."
  • "The price of Oracle Integration Cloud Service is reasonable to start with, but when you scale it becomes expensive."
  • "The solution is cost-effective."
  • "Its pricing is relatively lower than other vendors."
  • "The price is cheaper than all other cloud integration providers."
  • More Oracle Integration Cloud Service Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
  • "My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
  • "This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
  • "It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
  • "Based on my experience and understanding, Talend comes out to be a little bit expensive as compared to SSIS. The average cost of having Talend with Talend Management Console is around 72K per region, which is much higher than SSIS. SSIS works very well with Microsoft technologies, and if you have Microsoft technologies, it is not really expensive to have SSIS. If you have SQL Server, SSIS is free."
  • "We have an enterprise license for this solution."
  • "It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
  • "All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."

    Technology has made it easier for businesses to organize and manipulate data to get a clearer picture of what’s going on with their business. Notably, ETL tools have made managing huge amounts of data significantly easier and faster, boosting many organizations’ business intelligence operations There are many third-party vendors offering ETL solutions, but two of the most popular are PowerCenter Informatica and Microsoft SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services). Each technology has its advantages but there are also similarities on how they carry out the extract-transform-load processes and only differ in terminologies. If you’re in the process of choosing ETL tools and PowerCenter Informatica and Microsoft SSIS made it to your shortlist, here is a short comparative discussion detailing the differences between the two, as well as their benefits. Package Configuration Most enterprise data integration projects would require the capacity to develop a solution in one platform and test and deploy it in a separate environment without having to manually change the established workflow. In order to achieve this seamless movement between two environments, your ETL technology should allow the dynamic update of the project’s properties using the content or a parameter file or configuration. Both Informatica and SSIS support this functionality using different methodologies. In Informatica, every session can have more than one source and one or more destination connections.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Oracle Integration Cloud Service is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are that it has good adapters, is user friendly, and produces a solid ROI.

    Rishabh S., Business and Technology Delivery Associate Manager at Accenture, says, “It has good performance, easy integration, is user-friendly, and also has helpful technical support. The dashboard provided by Oracle Integration Cloud for monitoring and error handling is very intuitive. You do not need a third-party dashboard or logging framework when you initiate the integration. There are a lot of adapters, which is what I like the most.”

    “The most valuable features of this solution are the SFTP adapters, file adapters, and risk adapters, that we use in everyday projects,” says PeerSpot user Arun N., Technical Manager at a financial services firm.

    Kanhaiya C., Solution Architect at Tata Consultancy, explains, "Oracle Integration Cloud Service is a really good product and the ROI is very good with it. It lowers development time. A development cycle that may have taken a year without Oracle Integration Cloud Service can drop down to three or four months with it."

    SSIS is a versatile tool for data integration tasks like ETL processes, data migration, and real-time data processing. Users appreciate its ease of use, data transformation tools, scheduling capabilities, and extensive connectivity options. It enhances productivity and efficiency within organizations by streamlining data-related processes and improving data quality and consistency.
