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."

"The most valuable feature of SSIS is that it can handle real complex transformations."

"The performance is good."

"With this solution, there is the potential to expand, so that you can immediately write code onto the SQL server."

"The most valuable features of this solution are the fast insert and fuzzy logic matching."

"The debugging capabilities are great, particularly during data flow execution. You can look into the data and see what's going on in the pipeline."

"It has good data integration and good processes."

"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is simple to use and it offers a flexible custom script task."

"The reporting on the solution is perfect. I didn't expect to see reporting features, but they are great."

More SSIS pros

Cons

"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."

"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."

"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."

"There are a lot of things that Microsoft could improve in relation to SSIS. One major problem we faced was when attempting to move some Excel files to our SQL Server. The Excel provider has a limitation that prevents importing more than 255 columns from a particular Excel file to the database. This restriction posed a significant issue for us."

"SSIS is not stable."

"SSIS can improve in handling different data sources like Salesforce connectivity, Oracle Cloud's connectivity, etc."

"I would like to see better technical documentation because many times information is missing."

"There's no support for it at all. If you haven't undergone the qualifications, you wouldn't even know you should phone someone."

"SSIS sometimes hangs, and there are some problems with servers going down after they've been patched."

More SSIS cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."

"SSIS' licensing is a little high, but it gives good value for money."

"All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."

"Depending on the arrangement that a certain company has with Microsoft, it may supply the permanent license that is included in the SQL server license, or it may be a time-bound license if it is a partner license or other enterprise license."

"The solution comes free of cost."

"I'm not involved in licensing details, but SSIS provides value to our organization by simplifying data management tasks."

"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."

"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
