Drag-and-drop pipelines have saved days of work and now automate data movement and backfilling
If the AI features were more improved so that I don't have to provide each and every detail, Azure Data Factory could be improved in a much better way by improving the AI features. For example, if I want to fetch any data from a raw source, I need to provide each and every detail. But if I am just uploading my raw data and if AI will sync with that data, it can analyze that data and give me proper suggestions on how that should be done in a proper way. Automatic suggestions could improve in a much better way. As I have mentioned, the AI features as well as more drag-and-drop activities could be improved. If I am making a pipeline, it should give me suggestions, such as which activity should be used, so that I don't have to remember each activity. If I have used one activity, I shouldn't have to remember what activity should I use next. It should give auto-suggestions. That is why I have given a nine out of 10. Currently, I don't know about its governance and security, but in view of its improvement, I think Azure Data Factory should improve in these areas. As I already mentioned, the AI features should be improved. Also, the auto-suggestion features should also improve.

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

"This solution has provided us with an easier, and more efficient way to carry out data migration tasks."
"It has built-in connectors for more than 100 sources and onboarding data from many different sources to the cloud environment."
"It is easy to deploy workflows and schedule jobs."
"Since I have mentioned that I can use the drag-and-drop activities, by using that, Azure Data Factory is saving a lot of time, my organization has already been saving the time and generating more income with that."
"Powerful but easy-to-use and intuitive."
"The most valuable part of this product is the ease of use, as it is easy to use and rather intuitive, and because it is easy to use, you can do things with it easily, making your work easier and therefore more valuable."
"From my experience so far, the best feature is the ability to copy data to any environment. We have 100 connects and we can connect them to the system and copy the data from its respective system to any environment. That is the best feature."
"The most important feature is that it can help you do the multi-threading concepts."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"The need to work more on developing out-of-the-box connectors for other products like Oracle, AWS, and others."
"When working with AWS, we have noticed that the difference between ADF and AWS is that AWS is more customer-focused. They're more responsive compared to any other company. ADF is not as good as AWS, but it should be. If AWS is ten out of ten, ADF is around eight out of ten. I think AWS is easier to understand from the GUI perspective compared to ADF."
"I would like to see this time travel feature in Snowflake added to Azure Data Factory."
"The speed and performance need to be improved."
"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."
"Sometimes, the compute fails to process data if there is a heavy load suddenly, and it doesn't scale up automatically."
"They require more detailed error reporting, data normalization tools, easier connectivity to other services, more data services, and greater compatibility with other commonly used schemas."
"Azure Data Factory uses many resources and has issues with parallel workflows."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing model is based on usage and is not cheap."
"Pricing is comparable, it's somewhere in the middle."
"Our licensing fees are approximately 15,000 ($150 USD) per month."
"The licensing cost is included in the Synapse."
"It seems very low initially, but as the data grows, the solution’s bills grow exponentially."
"While I can't specify the actual cost, I believe it is reasonably priced and comparable to similar products."
"I don't see a cost; it appears to be included in general support."
"My company is on a monthly subscription for Azure Data Factory, but it's more of a pay-as-you-go model where your monthly invoice depends on how many resources you use. On a scale of one to five, pricing for Azure Data Factory is a four. It's just the usage fees my company pays monthly."
