    Information Server is extremely useful to replace manual developments that require a lot of coding effort. It significantly increases the productivity of the initial development and the future maintenance of the processes since it has a visual development environment with self-documentation.

    Scenarios where it works well: 1. Preparing reports like CRM, Marketing, and sales for monthly reports. 2. Cleaning CSV files with inconsistent format 3. Removing of duplicates and finding error values 4. Enabling non-technical people to manage data preparation without coding. Scenarios where it is less appropriate: 1. Processing real time data and large scale data needs 2. Deep customization at code level 3. At advanced predictive modeling

    Cons
    IBM
    • I would be nice to have a new web development environment for DataStage.
    • Connectivity Packs such as Pack for SAP Application are a little pricey.
    • It is confusing for new developers the possibility of developing jobs using different execution engines such as Parallel or Server.

    I would rate Zoho DataPrep a 10/10 for its usability because I feel it is very easy and intuitive platform and even non-technical people can access it easily without coding knowledge. Also, its workflow builder is very straightforward, once we create any data pipeline then we can reuse it easily.
