Cons
"It's a good idea to take a Microsoft course. Because they are really helpful when you start from your journey with Data Factory.""The speed and performance need to be improved.""Azure Data Factory can improve by having support in the drivers for change data capture.""In the next release, it's important that some sort of scheduler for running tasks is added.""There aren't many third-party extensions or plugins available in the solution.""The pricing scheme is very complex and difficult to understand.""The pricing model should be more transparent and available online.""Azure Data Factory can improve the transformation features. You have to do a lot of transformation activities. This is something that is just not fully covered. Additionally, the integration could improve for other tools, such as Azure Data Catalog."

"Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction. This could help someone who's not the strongest programmer. If the software could help them write queries correctly it would be very helpful, especially for small development teams or teams that lack the input skills necessary to write and program efficiently.""On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time. After manually executing the first time, they run with no issues."
