User Testimonials
	IBM InfoSphere Information Server	Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization
Likelihood to Recommend	IBM It's super terrific with workflow automation. Terrific with data backup and convenient with encryption of data. Reliable with asset management Great to discover virtual servers Incentivized jamie anderson Warehouse Manager Read full review	Red Hat Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Data Services is a top choice for JEE applications. Even though lots of documentation is available, it's difficult in terms of usability. If the development is more based on Java applications it is a good choice. It provides better installation and integrations. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	IBM Any source to any target support. ETL flexibility without coding. Extreme data volume processing. Native integration with other Data integration functionalities such as data profiling, data cleansing, metadata management. Karina Gonzalez Manager Data Management Read full review	Red Hat Data source compatibility: since it is Java, it can connect to anything with a JDBC driver. Flexibility: you can configure it however you want, we have it configured to use LDAPS for authentication and have all interfaces encrypted, and setting that up was pretty straight forward. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
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.

Alternatives Considered	IBM DataStage is more robust and stable than ODI The ability to perform complex transformations or implement business rules is much more developed in DS Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Red Hat Market value and support extended by Redhat is the winner against Veritas. It has cool features and functionality but still, if your organization is Redhat shop it's better to go for the Jboss option. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	IBM If you don't use all of the product family, it will be expensive. But if you want to plan use all the products and you will position it in the center of your infrastructure ROI will be effective.
