Manager, Data Operations at a manufacturing company with 5,001-10,000 employees

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.

A cloud solution that has a lot of connectors, but it should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples

Smaller customers who want to integrate with other systems don't need too much in-house expertise in terms of technology. They can hire consultants who can implement this solution for them, and they don't have to maintain any infrastructure. For a smaller setup, it is a go-to integration system wherein they don't need a lot of expertise or infrastructure. The solution's UI is pretty intuitive and easy. It is good for smaller integration use cases. I think it would be a problem for bigger use cases. Overall, I rate TIBCO Scribe a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is simple to use and it offers a flexible custom script task."

"The setup was easy. All Microsoft products are easy to set up."

"The data reader is the most valuable feature."

"The most valuable features of this solution are the fast insert and fuzzy logic matching."

"The initial setup was easy."

"The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration."

"Like most Microsoft products, SSIS is user-friendly and easy to use."

More SSIS pros

"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."

Cons

"I would like to see better technical documentation because many times information is missing."

"The debugging could be improved because when it came to solving the errors that I've experienced in the past, I've had to look at the documentation for more information."

"We have issues with SSIS connectors while extracting data from Excel sources."

"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."

"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."

"Video training would be a helpful addition."

"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."

"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."

More SSIS cons

"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."

"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."

"It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."

"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."

"This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."

"Our license with SSIS is annual."

"I'm not involved in licensing details, but SSIS provides value to our organization by simplifying data management tasks."

"This solution is a free of charge addition to our SQL licence. However, the only way this tool can be utilized is as a feature of the SQL licence, which may make it unattractive to organizations who don't wish to purchase the wider-ranging licence."
