IBM StreamSets excels in real-time logistics data ingestion and transformation across hybrid systems. It’s less ideal for lightweight ETL tasks or static datasets where simpler tools can achieve similar results with less overhead and complexity.

Panoply is well suited for companies with large amounts of data that do not want all users of the company to see or view. It is appropriate for companies that have to store data for several years in case clients need the data. It is not made to constantly be downloading or looking at the documents.

Pros
IBM
  • It helps streaming huge data that we have in our Teradata database to various reporting applications that runs on cloud seamlessly.
  • We also use IBM StreamSets to power few BI dashboards that our product managers use on regular basis to showcase various data with clients.
  • I think the data quality is way better compared to Informatica tool.

  • Ease of data integrations. Importing data into the data warehouse is a point-and-click effort.
  • Automated data modeling. The data is modeled in a way that facilitates analysis without having to look into it myself.
  • Query speed. Automated query optimization has really sped up our dashboards.

Cons
IBM
  • The error messages I feel aren t always very descriptive so troubleshooting can take longer
  • Maybe more customisation options for scheduling can be done, rest it works pretty well.

IBM Stream sets has been a wonderful addition to our technology stack. It has helped in some of our initiatives such as data engineering, data integration for not only external customers but also for internal purposes. The tool has also helped on our use cases related to streaming data. Moving to another tool would require significant amount of work and time.

Usability
IBM
The StreamSets platform is very easy to use and the interface is extremely intuitive. The drag-and-drop, low-code design makes it accessible for teams with varying technical skills, allowing us to quickly connect sources, define transformations, and deploy pipelines without heavy coding. StreamSets allows us to get started quickly and not have to worry about our pipelines breaking once they're built.

Support Rating
IBM
Streamsets support has improved a lot in the last couple of years. We had some challenges in the beginning with support, but now the quality of the support and the responsiveness to tickets are better. We have contacted support multiple times when it came to scenarios where the system was slow or the output as not as we expected

Alternatives Considered
IBM
First advantage is that this software is particularly new and it keeps updating according to the needs of the user. Other advantage is the it organises and produces conclusions on the basis of data without leaving any relevant information. Other softwares lack in data summarising and readability of the charts and sheets they produce.

Panoply has much more storage and better organization tools for searching. There are better folders and tools for keeping documents secure and stored for a long period of time. It is better to offload data in mass than singular or Zip drive documents like you would do in Google Drive.
