Featured Reviews

Venkatraman Bhat - PeerSpot reviewer
Deliver Head - Database and Infrastructure Cloud Services at Tech Mahindra Limited
Fast, has good extraction, validation, and transformation features, and provides good support
Though validation is good and fast enough in Oracle Data Quality, an area for improvement is the accuracy of the validation. Though the solution offers multidimensional validation, it needs a bit more improvement in the accuracy aspect because smaller products can offer better accuracy in terms of validation compared to Oracle Data Quality. What I'd like to see from the solution in its next release, is an increase in compliances and regulations that would allow it to cover all industries because multiple verticals demand data quality nowadays, and this improvement will be helpful as Oracle Data Quality is an in-built delivered solution.
Ramesh Pampana - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager, SAP Practice at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Has consistently provided impressive data handling capabilities and robust security features
Some of the most valuable features of SAP Data Services include data extraction where SAP is the best in that perspective, but when it comes to analytics or the reporting tool, I prefer to connect with Microsoft Power BI, which is a fantastic tool. Typically, from an end-user perspective, SAP has a huge amount of data, in terms of terabytes of data, but when you analyze that, the best form of visualization is always through Microsoft Power BI. SAP Data Services provides a best-in-class return on investment, as SAP's vision and forecast are absolutely amazing. They are ahead of technology, building an ecosystem that meets the standards of the fast-changing digital economy. SAP is indeed good at all this now, with so many components such as SAP Signavio, SAP EINS, SAP Work Zone, SAP ALM, Cloud ALM, SAP public cloud, SAP private cloud, and BTP, all of which are essential to meet the latest cutting-edge technologies.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Once it is set up, it is easy to use and maintain."
"Oracle EDQ is indeed a state-of-the-art tool that will help you understand, improve, protect, and govern the quality of your enterprise data in a single integrated and collaborative environment."
"OEDQ helped us to define Data Quality issues from a business perspective by business users and ability to manage those issues within our ETL tool (Oracle Data Integrator - ODI)."
"However, I think Oracle Data Quality is definitely worth giving a try."
"I have found the most valuable features to be data cleansing and deduplication."
"With Oracle Data Quality, the most valuable feature is entity matching."
"I'd recommend this solution to anyone who is using data quality or would want to know the quality of data in their company and fix the data."
"The technical support is very good; we had a good experience with the support."
"It is a good product which does not require deep knowledge of programming and integrates well with SAP other products."
"SAP works well for the financial side of the business, but for anybody who is researching solutions for incident management, I suggest that they use another product."
"You can always manipulate a lot of things as long as you have the skill level."
"The development is faster than SSIS or Talend."
"The most valuable feature is the user interface."
"Having different ways of extracting data has been very useful; we can extract data at a table level, extract data at the ETL level, and we can extract data at an ODP level."
"Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable. It is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools. It has very good integration with SAP, but it also has the capabilities to connect to other systems. We find it very helpful and stable."
"It is a powerful product with a broad range of features."
 

Cons

"Though validation is good and fast enough in Oracle Data Quality, an area for improvement is the accuracy of the validation. Though the solution offers multidimensional validation, it needs a bit more improvement in the accuracy aspect because smaller products can offer better accuracy in terms of validation compared to Oracle Data Quality. What I'd like to see from the solution in its next release, is an increase in compliances and regulations that would allow it to cover all industries because multiple verticals demand data quality nowadays, and this improvement will be helpful as Oracle Data Quality is an in-built delivered solution."
"Mobile support and mobile app can be implemented, since business users generally prefers to work with their laptops and mobile phones."
"Oracle Data Quality should integrate with data warehousing solutions such as Azure and CWS Office. For example, having the ability to integrate with tools, such as Azure Synapse and SQL data warehousing would be a great benefit."
"If the length of time required for deployment was reduced then it would be very helpful."
"The initial setup was complicated, there is a lot of configuration that needs to be done."
"We have experienced some system crashes i.e. when tying to run Data Profiling Processes for very large data sets."
"Oracle is currently not that intuitive. We need to use programmers to write code for a lot of the procedures. We need to have them write CL SQL code and write a CL script."
"There are some challenges with respect to standardization, matching, segregation, and merging."
"Sudden crashing of DS making unsaved changes lost, happens usually when logged in for a long amount of time."
"They could make it easier to work with web services."
"The interface of SAP Data Services is still easy to use, but it is also dated as things are evolving."
"Error logging is very cryptic."
"While Data Services performs very well when dealing with relational structures and to a lesser degree with delimited files, there is significant room from improvement with the integration with web services and related data formats (XML, JSON, etc.)."
"The support is poor because of the time and the knowledge of the support team."
"I think it has a little trouble handling more users running parallel batch jobs in one job server but minimal."
"The skillset of data engineers matters a bit to use all the functionality of this solution. Otherwise, the delivery speed won't be faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The vendor needs to revisit their pricing strategy."
"The price of this solution is comparable to other similar solutions."
"The price of SAP Data Services is a little high when compared to other solutions. Due to the pricing and capabilities, many clients are switching to other solutions."
"The price is very reasonable."
"Speaking about prices, Oracle and SAP are market leaders. So, the prices are more."
"The product’s on-premise version is expensive for a medium-sized company."
"The pricing is a little high to make the product more competetive in the marketplace."
"It's relatively expensive compared to other vendors, but it is competitive."
"There is a one time purchase fee plus annual maintenance."
"Its pricing is as per the enterprise agreement and not a concern for us."
