Facilitates complex data integration with ease and flexibility
It would be great if ODI could link the designer, mapping, and workflows in a more simplified manner, maybe in one combined interface. It would be excellent not to have to go into different areas to perform different activities but rather have a user-defined interface where we can configure a job, run it, monitor it, link packages, and link subprocesses all in one frame instead of having the designer separately, mapping separately, and monitoring and session management separately. With respect to data quality challenges, it would be great to give an option to fix data quality issues based on AI. Integrating AI with ODI that provides recommendations on how to fix those data quality issues after analyzing and profiling business data would be excellent. One of the main disadvantages of the Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it sometimes takes a lot of resources when handling multiple jobs. The scalability and the ability to handle multiple workloads of several parallel ETL jobs could use improvement, and certain parallel threads should be added along with the ability to configure multiple jobs from the same data directory structure.

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 possibilities provided by using knowledge modules and the integration with other Oracle products."
"The best feature of this solution is the documentation, as everything is set out clearly with step-by-step instructions."
"I would definitely recommend the ODI."
"If you want a robust, flexible solution with no extra hardware that is easy to learn, then ODI is the right product for you."
"The Knowledge Module approach provides an easy and reusable way to create our own integration strategies. It's easy to create these Knowledge Modules to connect to new technologies, for instance."
"Integration with all systems is easy with Oracle Data Integrator, and it is easy to use. I have not used any other product, but with Oracle Data Integrator, we can easily connect to an ERP system, an SAP system, or a cloud application."
"The CAEM is very useful in its modularity and portability."
"ODI's most valuable features are it utilizes the database engine and is very lightweight."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"The user interface is a little slow."
"Oracle support services are not up to the mark."
"ETL process registry solution is missing."
"Technical support for ODI has been awful, but I think it differs by product because support for OFSAA is wonderful."
"Stability could be improved because some operators have issues."
"ODI could improve by focusing on streamlining its features without unnecessary overhead."
"The solution lacks some functions and features."
"Overall performance needs improvement. Especially when running ODI clients on Windows desktops."
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ODI comes included when buying the cloud version of the Oracle database license."
"Per user, it is $900 USD per year, though they will give some discount. However, even a 60% to 70% of discount for each won't help us much. On top of that, there is the perpetual license you must pay at the outset."
"There is a standard license to use the solution but there are other costs in addition, such as hardware and operating system."
"We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great."
"I rate the platform pricing as five out of ten."
"Being an ODI developer, I never had to pay for this product. I know that the pricing/licensing is not really low, but the product is really good."
"The Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) pricing isn't expensive, but it's not cheap, so it's in the middle. I'd rate the pricing as three out of five."
"The solution is very expensive."
