User Testimonials
Oracle Data Integrator (ODI)Salesforce Data Cloud
Likelihood to Recommend
I tried various ETL tools and here is [where and] why I recommend Oracle Data Integrator. 1. When you want to process structured data from different databases - Teradata, Exadata, DB2, SQL, Oracle etc. 2. Oracle Data Integrator supports all platforms, hardware, and OS. This is a major advantage compared to other leading tools. 3. The ELT architecture giving a cutting edge performance over leading ETL tools. There is no need to align Oracle Data Integrator between source and target. ODI uses the source and target servers to perform complex transformations. 4. Speeds up the development and maintenance by reducing the code that developers need to write

Being a mid sized organization, the costing is achievable, but can’t say for those of startups. So I believe not suitable for small scale organizations and very well suited for large data analytics companies to gain market. Also, the maintenance is slightly difficulty and support for the product is comparatively slower than other similar products.

  • Transformed data from DB2, SQL Server and other Oracle databases into flat files and then used ETL jobs to load into Oracle DB target
  • Data Integrator and Goldengate were used together to accomplish the data movement needed for business and data consolidation in live environment. Data Integrator helped with development and in reducing lead time to convert data into target.

  • Some parts of it are not intuitive to use and get hard to troubleshoot
  • Like other Oracle products, you must have very, very thorough knowledge about their systems to understand
  • Like all Oracle products, cost is high

  • Very expensive
  • Does not integrate with HubSpot (another CRM). We have tried many times and it does not seem to connect
  • Sometimes the website will load very slow where other websites are much quicker

It is maturing and over time will have a good pool of resources. Each new version has addressed the issues of the previous ones. Its getting better and bigger.

it is easy to use after you get the hang of it. If you have an internal team of developers you will be able to maximise the usage a lot better. I would recommend it to people who need to organise data in a more unified way but I can’t speak to it from an infrastructure perspective as I’m not from the infrastructure team

Alternatives Considered
Talend Data Integrator has been evaluated during the setup of the architecture for a customer, in comparison to ODI, since it's an open source ETL. But, differently from the meaning of "open source", it has licence costs too that aren't that different from ODI ones. Moreover, the other components of the business intelligence architecture of the customer were Oracle, so we thought that ODI would suit at best with them, more than a different vendor software.

I like Salesforce Data Cloud because like mentioned before, it is easy to use, easy to generate reports, create workflows, keep track of customer data, sales data, house data, etc. You can also import excel sheets with customer data as well and it will create the fields for you which is nice
