"The most valuable feature of SSIS is its ease of use. It is easier to use than other applications.""SSIS is an easy way to do data integration from various data sources. It doesn't matter whether it's a database, flat files, XML, or Web API. It can talk to the and join them all together.""SSIS' best feature is SFTP connectivity.""The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration.""There are many good features in this solution including the data fields, database integration, support for SQL views, and the lookups for matching information.""The most valuable feature of SSIS is that it can handle real complex transformations.""You can get data from any data source with SSIS and dump it to any outside source. It is helpful. Getting, extracting, converting, and dumping data doesn't require much effort because we can do everything in the user interface. You drag and drop, then give the required input. It's intuitive.""The interface is very user-friendly."

Cons
"The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users.""The solution could be more scalable.""This is an on-premise platform and one area they can improve on is having the ability to work with SaaS solutions.""It requires some maintenance.""In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them.""Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required.""SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes.""Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."

More SAP Process Orchestration Cons →

"We In upgrading SSIS, we encountered challenges fixing SQL Server and performance issues, including problems during a failover in our data warehouse.""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.""I have a tool called ZappySys. I need that tool to cut down on the complexity of SSIS. That tool really helps with a quick turnaround. I can do things quickly, and I can do things accurately. I can get better reporting on errors.""I would like to see better integration with Power BI.""SSIS sometimes hangs, and there are some problems with servers going down after they've been patched.""Improving the login procedure would make our reporting easier on monitoring our ETL processes.""The performance of SSIS could improve when comparing it to Oracle Database.""Sometimes we need to connect to AWS to get additional data sources, so we have to install some external LAN and not a regular RDBMS. We need external tools to connect. It would be great if SSIS included these tools. I'd also like some additional features for row indexing and data conversion."

  • "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."

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.
