Manager at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

User-friendly interface facilitates efficient data migration and reduces operational overhead
Its usability and ease of use are standout features. It is really easy to use - almost too easy at times. Users don't have to be experts to use their tool set and utilize the clicking mechanisms, drop down boxes, and other features to build a package and run it. The configuration is very easy and the system is very stable. I would rate it at a 10 as it is highly reliable; we have never had any problems with it. Very little maintenance is required on my side. While you need to keep the product up to date, the maintenance requirements are minimal. SSIS integrates with all Microsoft tools seamlessly. We have used it against Oracle, DB2 and SQL. It integrates and can move data around from any data platforms, making it very diverse in that standpoint. It is a very robust tool that can work with many data sources, and its main strength is that it is extremely easy to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
"The main benefits SSIS provides for my company is to streamline processes, and the reporting process is the most useful for me, as most of our data is captured into SQL, making it easier to pull the differences in reports for the year."
"It is also easy to learn and user-friendly. Microsoft is also good in terms of technical support. They have built a large community all over the world."
"It has a drag and drop feature that makes it easy to use. It has a good user experience because it takes into account your most-used tools and they're lined up nicely so you can just drag and drop without looking too far. It also integrates nicely with Microsoft."
"It is easily scheduled and integrates well with SQL Server and SQL Server Agent jobs."
"With this solution, there is the potential to expand, so that you can immediately write code onto the SQL server."
"The setup is easy to use and understand."
"The most valuable features for our company are the flexibility and the quick turn around time in producing simple ETL solutions."
"The technical support is very good."
 

Cons

"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
"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."
"When I compare Talend and SSIS, Talend provides more features."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"Tuning using this solution requires extensive expertise to improve performance."
"Sometimes, there are compatibility issues with some features."
"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."
"There were some issues when we tried to connect it to data storage. It was a connection issue."
"We're in the process of switching to Informatica, and we need to work out data lineage and data profiling and to improve the quality of our data. SSIS, however, is not that compatible with Informatica. We managed to connect it to Informatica Metadata Manager, but we don't get good lineage, so we have to redo all our ETLs using the Informatica process in order to accept the proper data lineage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
"We purchased the standard edition of SQL Server and SSIS came with it free of charge."
"If you don't want to pay a lot of money, you can go for SSIS, as its open-source version is available. When it comes to licensing, SSIS can be expensive."
"SSIS' licensing is a little high, but it gives good value for money."
"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
"It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
"t's incredibly cost effective, easy to learn the basics quickly (although like all ETL tools requires the traditional learning curve to get good at) and has an immense user base."
"All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."
