Reporting has become streamlined for year-end data checks but integration still needs improvement
When I talk about SQL Server, I am working with SSIS, the data integration tool. I am not entirely sure if I use SSIS as a library of transformations or if I personally work with an extensive library of transformations. I have integrated SSIS with SQL Server Management Studio, and I am very satisfied with the integration as it is integrated well. I am not using the debugging feature in SSIS because the developers would be the ones that would actually utilize it. I have noticed that in 2022, AI functionality has actually been implemented already. I would rate this review overall at a 7.

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

"It is the most valuable for staff processes in order to gain efficiency."
"The simplicity of the solution is great, and the solution also offers excellent integration."
"Because of the code generation, code quality improved and the time to develop decreased."
"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 performance and stability are good."
"SSIS is easy to use."
"The most valuable thing is that it is easy to connect with Microsoft tools. In Europe, particularly in France, a lot of companies use Excel, SQL Server, and other Microsoft tools, and it is easier to connect SSIS with Microsoft tools than other products."
"We use this solution for ETL, which includes data summation and cleaning."
"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."
 

Cons

"It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution."
"There's no support for it at all. If you haven't undergone the qualifications, you wouldn't even know you should phone someone."
"We have faced some problems, mostly from a different provider with different language handling."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"This may be done, but upgrades to new versions required re-implementing each package."
"I come from a coding background and this tool is graphically based. Sometimes I think it's cumbersome to do mapping graphically. If there was a way to provide a simple script, it would be helpful and make it easier to use."
"If you run SSIS from the local system, it will lag, but it will work properly if you host on the cloud somewhere."
"Upgrading is usually painful and time consuming despite what MS says"
"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
"If you don't want to pay a lot of money, you can go for SSIS, as its open-source version is available. When it comes to licensing, SSIS can be expensive."
"The solution is available at a lesser price than that of Informatica."
"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."
"My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
"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."
