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 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."
"The setup is straightforward. It's very easy to install."
"The initial setup of this solution is very straightforward."
"The solution is easy to use and developer friendly."
"The workflow features have been very valuable. You can have automated workflows and all the steps are controlled. The workflow functionality of integration services is excellent."
"SSIS is easy to use."
"The scalability of SSIS is good."
"I like everything about this product, but the biggest thing is the ease of use."
"The solution is very user-friendly and easy to understand."
"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."
"The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."
"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."
"They're very competitive in terms of performance, which is a good selling point. It has very rich features. It provides a very rich feature set in the application."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"There was also not enough instructions from Microsoft in regards to this application or this technology, which can easily be improved upon."
"This solution needs full support for real-time processing."
"It hangs a lot of the time."
"SSIS sometimes hangs, and there are some problems with servers going down after they've been patched."
"I would also like to see full integration with our BI because then our full load of data will be available in our organization. They should incorporate an ATL process."
"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."
"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."
"It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution."
"The documentation from version to version could be more accurate."
"Once you get past the basic tools, it gets pretty complicated."
"I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced."
"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data."
"The product must enhance the data quality."
"They lack in memory capacity."
"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."
"I would like to sync a project and do an upload from that current version, and then from GitLab, be able to download the latest one."

There are two products I know about
* TimeXtender : Microsoft based, Transformation logic is quiet good and can easily be extended with T-SQL , Has a semantic layer that generates metat data for cubes . price approx 40K$, works with tables
. Attunity (Bought by Qlik) : technology agnostic , nice web interface , expensive > 100K€. Works with transaction logs
There are many other pure ETL tools
* ERWIN has a nice one ,
Depends upon the technologies being used. If you're using Oracle for both OLTP and OLAP then you'll get a lot of value from an Oracle solution.
The other question is how up to date do you want your OLAP DB to be? Goldengate is a good answer if you're looking to minimize latency, but it can be expensive. ODI is less expensive but better suited to bulkier data sets. If an Oracle product wasn't the option I'd probably consider something like Informatica.

As someone mentioned, if you're purely Oracle shop and staying that way then there's value with prioritizing Oracle tools. However, let me contrast that with this caveat...
Consider expectations for tool and vendor longevity. Oracle has a long history of retiring and/or replacing tools leaving customers in the cold with prior versions/tools (I've been burned multiple times by Oracle product retirements or replacements including OWB, Oracle Designer2k, Oracle Express, Oracle OEDW, their purchase of Sagent ETL which as later abandoned).
But I would also consider these questions and relative prioritization:
What is your organization's plans for moving to other database technologies?
Where is your org going with on-prem versus cloud solutions? How important are PaaS versus IaaS solutions?
Where is your current staff's expertise?
Prioritize mature over immature tools.
How many sources do you have? What are their technologies and does the integration tool support them?
Is it just moving data from a single ERP such as Oracle EBS to Olap? When you say Olap what do you mean by that? Are you talking Oracle Olap product or something else? That makes a really big difference of course - if your ETL tool doesn't support your source(s) and target(s) then it shouldn't be considered.
Given the industry's trajectory, I myself would highly prioritize PaaS solutions over others.
What is the OLAP that you are using? Hosted in Cloud or on-premise?
The target DB should have its tool to extract data.
Pentaho is a really nice tool if opensource is the only option.
Please think about issues such as upgrade and disaster in the future. These operations are very easy in Pentaho.
I can only suggest one thing for replication and that is Qlik. (ex-Attunity).
Hi Karoly, Thanks for your input. community: forums.pentaho.com is not allowing new registrations for new users. I guess they accept queries from customers only and not from any one. Do you know any other forum, community, SMEs contacts who can help on queries?
