A stable and scalable solution with customization features
Introducing something new can be expensive, and they'll likely continue using the existing tool. There's no need to spend money implementing a new solution, even if it could improve things. I see more challenges on the client side than with Skyvia itself. The client is a large company and wanted a lot of customization, which naturally requires time. It's not that Skyvia is limiting me; it allows me to make the necessary changes. The issue is that the client’s requirements keep changing—one day, they want something done one way, and the next day, they want it differently. Three people are doing the maintenance. Overall, I rate the solution as nine out of ten.
