Dataloader is an incredible asset for a large organization or an organization that has a robust Salesforce environment. Specifically, Dataloader has allowed our sales team to focus on driving sales while our operations team can load the data they need in a manner that allows for robust reporting and tracking on our sales process. Organizations with less robust Salesforce environments or Salesforce environments in which many people are expected to maintain their own information likely do not need Dataloader.Incentivized
Denodo allows us to create and combine new views to create avirtual repository and APIs without a single line of code. It is excellentbecause it can present connectors with a view format for downstream consumersby flattening a JSON file. Reading or connecting to various sources anddisplaying a tabular view is an excellent feature. The product's technical datacatalog is well-organized.Incentivized
Extracting Salesforce attachments in original file format! I do not know of a tool that can do this better, or more efficiently! This is a huge benefit to companies that would like to extract attachments from Salesforce for tasks like data migrations.Cross-object data extract within one file. You can pull data from related objects as long as there is a populated lookup from the object you are extracting, to another object (Child or Parent).UI is simple and requires very little to no training. Given the acquisition of Mulesoft by Salesforce, I would not be surprised if DataLoader.IO is rolled out as the new global data loading tool for Salesforce.Incentivized
Database Agnostic: You can easily connect to different environments and mash up data sets.The "magic" of data virtualization: No data is created, so data is reported in near-real-time to end users.It's easy to use UI for developers. You just connect to a data source, create tables, and join them to other datasets.Incentivized
At the moment, I can't find a way to rename jobs. This would be useful to organize what was previously created hastily by techs in a rush.A preview of the job, especially upserts, would take a great deal of stress away from some of us (especially those who are not so confident in their ETL practice).A native vlookup equivalent may be a welcome addition.
Caching - but I am sure it will be improved by now. There were times when we expected the cache to be refreshed but it was stale.Schema generation of endpoints from API response was sometimes incomplete as not all API calls returned all the fields. Will be good to have an ability to load the schema itself (XSD/JSON/Soap XML etc).Denodo exposed web services were in preliminary stage when we used; I'm sure it will be improved by now.Export/Import deployment, while it was helpful, there were unexpected issues without any errors during deployment. Issues were only identified during testing. Some views were not created properly and did not work. If it was working in the environment from where it was exported from, it should work in the environment where it is imported.Incentivized
It is easy to use and doesn't require a security token, so I enjoy using it. It also doesn't require any download or installation, which is sometimes a blocker to gettingthings done if the company has limits. also, the dataloader.io is easy for other people to pick up, so others can have visibility into the data jobs that have occurred
It is an intuitive application to use. Within a few clicks, you can be signed in to your org and ready to perform tasks. Data imports/exports/updates are streamlined so you can quickly start and configure your jobs. These can run in the background while you set up new tasks. Job history and tasks currently running on are on your home screen.Incentivized
Denodo is very easy to use. It has a user-friendly drag and drop interface. I'm not a fan of the java platform it resides on.Incentivized
Dataloader is made for updating, inserting, and deleting of contacts. For these operations this tool is excellent.Incentivized
Denodo is a tool to rapidly mash data sources together and create meaningful datasets. It does have its downfalls though. When you create larger, more complex datasets, you will most likely need to cache your datasets, regardless of how proper your joins are set up. Since DV takes data from multiple environments, you are taxing the corporate network, so you need to be conscious of how much data you are sending through the network and truly understand how and when to join datasets due to this.Incentivized
Customer support might be where Dataloader.io saves money. Most of the competitors offer 24/7 live support but Dataloader.io only offers support via email and the community. Those types of support work fine until you need an answer right away. Some questions can't wait until the next business day or business hours for a reply.Incentivized
I have used salesforce inspector also for operations like import and export of data from custom objects but it doesn't work well when you have data in huge numbers. Instead of using Salesforce Inspector, one should go for Dataloader.io if the number of records is huge to be dealt with.Incentivized
Denodo is simple and easy to use. Highly recommended unless you have huge volumes of data Incentivized
HUGE time saving. When we need to clean or review data, we used to have to do it line by line. This can do the work within excel and make cleanup/management an afternoons work as opposed to a week.Rollback what you did/change/deleted is relatively simple if you remember to back up the data you are manipulating.Incentivized
It is a huge advantage that we can connect to many different databases to provide data rapidly and accurately.It has proven to be a valuable environment for deploying data virtualization solutions, and its user community is active in finding and fixing issues.Incentivized
