A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

User-friendly interface facilitates efficient data migration and reduces operational overhead
Its usability and ease of use are standout features. It is really easy to use - almost too easy at times. Users don't have to be experts to use their tool set and utilize the clicking mechanisms, drop down boxes, and other features to build a package and run it. The configuration is very easy and the system is very stable. I would rate it at a 10 as it is highly reliable; we have never had any problems with it. Very little maintenance is required on my side. While you need to keep the product up to date, the maintenance requirements are minimal. SSIS integrates with all Microsoft tools seamlessly. We have used it against Oracle, DB2 and SQL. It integrates and can move data around from any data platforms, making it very diverse in that standpoint. It is a very robust tool that can work with many data sources, and its main strength is that it is extremely easy to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
"Despite the complexity when dealing with advanced transformations, it is straightforward for simple data movements, and the performance is excellent."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is its ease of use. It is easier to use than other applications."
"SSIS integrates well with SQL servers and Microsoft products."
"I have found its most valuable features to be its package management capabilities and the flexibility it offers in designing workflows."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is that it can handle real complex transformations."
"It has a drag and drop feature that makes it easy to use. It has a good user experience because it takes into account your most-used tools and they're lined up nicely so you can just drag and drop without looking too far. It also integrates nicely with Microsoft."
"The solution is stable."
"The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration."
 

Cons

"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
"We have a stability problem because when something works, it works one time. The next time, it doesn't work."
"The solution could improve on integrating with other types of data sources."
"Sometimes when we want to publish to other types of databases it's not easy to publish to those databases. For example, the Jet Database Engine. Before the SSIS supported Jet Database Engine but nowadays it doesn't support the Jet Database Engine. We connect to many databases such as Access database, SparkPros databases and the other types of databases using Jet Database Engines now and SSIS now doesn't seem to support it in our databases."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"Involving a data lake or data engineering aspects would be useful. While it is there, we need more features included."
"Microsoft's technical support has decreased in quality over the last few years, becoming less responsive and tending to pass problems on instead of solving them."
"The high prices attached to the product can be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would also like to see full integration with our BI because then our full load of data will be available in our organization. They should incorporate an ATL process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"This solution is a free of charge addition to our SQL licence. However, the only way this tool can be utilized is as a feature of the SQL licence, which may make it unattractive to organizations who don't wish to purchase the wider-ranging licence."
"Our license with SSIS is annual."
"t's incredibly cost effective, easy to learn the basics quickly (although like all ETL tools requires the traditional learning curve to get good at) and has an immense user base."
"Based on my experience and understanding, Talend comes out to be a little bit expensive as compared to SSIS. The average cost of having Talend with Talend Management Console is around 72K per region, which is much higher than SSIS. SSIS works very well with Microsoft technologies, and if you have Microsoft technologies, it is not really expensive to have SSIS. If you have SQL Server, SSIS is free."
"The solution is available at a lesser price than that of Informatica."
"This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
"The solution comes free of cost."
"We have an enterprise license for this solution."
