Mainly performance. Reliability and robustness An endorsement of a brand. flexibility Ability to integrate with other tools

Some benefits of the product are the capacity of integration with multiple sources of data, using connectors. It supports a wide variety of data sources and destinations. It has robust qualities such as programming of transformation tasks, as well as the tracking of said processes. ODI has precedents in terms of performance, that is, if the priority of an organization is the processing of information volumes, having at hand a robust but flexible tool then ODI is a great option. The way in which ODI is built in its architecture, allows changes to be made quickly, with ease from a technical perspective but with a great impact for business areas. ODI offers a really competitive tool to integrate with 3rd parties sources such: IBM DB2, Teradata, Sybase IQ and another protocols like plain text files, ERP, LDAP and XML.

Access to documentation, but is rewarded by the wide range of courses offered by Oracle to specialists in the area

We are one of the largest telecommunication services provider in Asia. We have a multi-million customer base. So the Big data team wanted an ETL tool which can manipulate the high volume of data with high performance. After long research, we chose ODI. We have installed the ODI in a clustered environment. Basically it runs on top of the Oracle Weblogic Server. However, install installation was quite hard. But we were able to manage that. We could able to interface ODI with hundreds of supported data sources. Finally, I can say this the best and most advanced ETL tool I have ever worked.

+Support thousands of data sources. +Deployment time could be cut down +Can be interface with many 3rd party tools. +High performance and flexibility.

+Implentation is hard. +Not supported on Solaris OS. + Lack of community support. +High license cost.

In latest version it comes up with integrating with Oracle Service Oriented Architecture services, and vice versa and it enables users to automate end to end business functionality across the products.

Not easy to use, requires proper understanding on the tool how it works and also requires more resources

My over all experiences about the product is a great. It's complete on my quality.

Yes, It's amazing data integration tool for new customers. It's easily connect to many database like MySql, SQL Server etc. It's completely user friendly. We can easily manage to packages, ETL and Procedures. Over all very good data mearging tool.

We can easily create the ETL and schedules. We can check logs on daily basis.

ODI allows to choose where collocate the trasformation area (Source, Target or other). ODI has so many connectors for the main data sources / destinations. ODI allow to customize the behavior the own connectors

Very few update for connectors. Very high pricing if not in bundle with other products. SAP connectors very expensive and hard to use
