Featured Reviews

Joy Maitra - PeerSpot reviewer
Facilitates seamless data pipeline creation with good analytics and and thorough monitoring
Azure Data Factory is a low code, no code platform, which is helpful. It provides many prebuilt functionalities that assist in building data pipelines. Also, it facilitates easy transformation with all required functionalities for analytics. Furthermore, it connects to different sources out-of-the-box, making integration much easier. The monitoring is very thorough, though a more readable version would be appreciable.
GouravSuri - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"The function of the solution is great."
"The data mapping and the ability to systematically derive data are nice features. It worked really well for the solution we had. It is visual, and it did the transformation as we wanted."
"I find that the solution integrates well with cloud technologies, which we are using for different clouds like Snowflake and AWS"
"The data is more scalable."
"The tool's most valuable features are its connectors. It has many out-of-the-box connectors. We use ADF for ETL processes. Our main use case involves integrating data from various databases, processing it, and loading it into the target database. ADF plays a crucial role in orchestrating these ETL workflows."
"ADF is another ETL tool similar to Informatica that can transform data or copy it from on-prem to the cloud or vice versa. Once we have the data, we can apply various transformations to it and schedule our pipeline according to our business needs. ADF integrates with Databricks. We can call our Databricks notebooks and schedule them via ADF."
"The security of the agent that is installed on-premises is very good."
"One advantage of Azure Data Factory is that it's fast, unlike SSIS and other on-premise tools. It's also very convenient because it has multiple connectors. The availability of native connectors allows you to connect to several resources to analyze data streams."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, the compute fails to process data if there is a heavy load suddenly, and it doesn't scale up automatically."
"Integration of data lineage would be a nice feature in terms of DevOps integration. It would make implementation for a company much easier. I'm not sure if that's already available or not. However, that would be a great feature to add if it isn't already there."
"Data Factory could be improved in terms of data transformations by adding more metadata extractions."
"The speed and performance need to be improved."
"It does not appear to be as rich as other ETL tools. It has very limited capabilities."
"You cannot use a custom data delimiter, which means that you have problems receiving data in certain formats."
"My only problem is the seamless connectivity with various other databases, for example, SAP."
"Lacks in-built streaming data processing."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It seems very low initially, but as the data grows, the solution’s bills grow exponentially."
"Azure products generally offer competitive pricing, suitable for diverse budget considerations."
"Pricing appears to be reasonable in my opinion."
"The pricing model is based on usage and is not cheap."
"The solution's fees are based on a pay-per-minute use plus the amount of data required to process."
"Product is priced at the market standard."
"Data Factory is expensive."
"ADF is cheaper compared to AWS."
