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.

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 easy to set up the product."

"The setup is easy to use and understand."

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

"It is easily scheduled and integrates well with SQL Server and SQL Server Agent jobs."

"The most valuable features for our company are the flexibility and the quick turn around time in producing simple ETL solutions."

"It's already very user-friendly and has a good dashboard."

"There are many good features in this solution including the data fields, database integration, support for SQL views, and the lookups for matching information."

"I have used most of the standard SQL features, but the ones that stand out are the Data Flows and Bulk Import."

More SSIS pros

"The most valuable feature of TIBCO Scribe is the connectors available to various products."

Cons

"We have a stability problem because when something works, it works one time. The next time, it doesn't work."

"SSIS has room for improvement, mainly because the overall package can be buggy. It often locks up, requiring a restart, which is annoying. However, since it's free, we tolerate these performance issues. I'd like to see better debugging tools in future releases and improvements in API calls; It would be helpful if SSIS had a built-in API engine so we wouldn't have to rely solely on database connections."

"Performance could be better."

"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."

"Generic processes should be used instead of custom code for each table."

"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."

"I have a tool called ZappySys. I need that tool to cut down on the complexity of SSIS. That tool really helps with a quick turnaround. I can do things quickly, and I can do things accurately. I can get better reporting on errors."

"SSIS has a difficult learning curve when dealing with complex transformations."

More SSIS cons

"The solution should provide better documentation and scenario-based samples."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We purchased the standard edition of SQL Server and SSIS came with it free of charge."

"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."

"We have an enterprise license for this solution."

"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."

"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."

"The solution comes free of cost."

"SSIS is a cheaper option compared to the cost of other ETL tools."

"The solution is available at a lesser price than that of Informatica."
