Integrate.io vs. SAS Data Management

Integrate.IO or formerly XPlenty can be used for various needs:

• Multiple Sources (Excel, CSV, Text File, Blank File Type, All SQL Type)
• Multiple End Points (All SQL Type)
• Integration to Salesforce Sales Cloud
• Re-using the same package in different platforms which result to less development
• Value for the money

When data is in a system that needs a complex transformation to be usable for an average user. Such tasks as data residing in systems that have very different connection speeds. It can be integrated and used together after passing through the SAS Data Integration Studio removing timing issues from the users' worries. A part that is perhaps less appropriate is getting users who are not familiar with the source data to set up the load processes.

• Collecting data from different sources and making these available for BI tools or other IT systems.
• Their support department is really helpful when you are facing issues. Sometimes they refer to their documentation and sometimes they can help you right away.
• Generally I’m really happy with the ease of use. The software just does its job very well and we’re really getting a lot of value from it.

• SAS/Access is great for manipulating large and complex databases.
• SAS/Access makes it easy to format reports and graphics from your data.
• Data Management and data storage using the Hadoop environment in SAS/Access allows for rapid analysis and simple programming language for all your data needs.

• It's not always easy to use.
• Debugging can be challenging when error logs lack specificity.
• Interaction between fields or packages is slow.

• Requires third-party drivers to connect to common data sources like SFDC, MS SQL, Postgres.
• Debugging errors from the logs is a complicated process.
• E-mail alert system is very primitive and needs customization to make it more modern,
• Cannot send SMS alerts for jobs.

We are happy with the software and its functionality. As a SAS-shop, DataFlux is a logical choice for complex data integration.

The main negative point is the use of a non-standard language for customizations, as well as the poor integration with non-SAS systems. However, there is no doubt that it is a high-performance and powerful product capable of responding optimally to certain requirements.

With SAS, you pay a license fee annually to use this product. Support is incredible. You get what you pay for, whether it's SAS forums on the SAS support site, technical support tickets via email or phone calls, or example documentation. It's not open source. It's documented thoroughly, and it works.

Integrate.io offers more customization options than Datorama, allowing businesses to create their own custom integrations and workflows using their API and SDKs. Integrate.io's pricing model is based on the number of data transactions, which may be more cost-effective for businesses that have a high volume of data.

Because of ease of using SAS DI and data processing speed. There were lots of issues with AWS Redshift on cloud environment in terms of making connections with the data sources and while fetching the data we need to write complex queries.

Incentivized

• Faster development with less skill requirements
• Part of long range planning
• Captured the data privacy requirements

Incentivized

• We have more users who can connect to the many different data sources.
• Our users do have existing SAS programming knowledge and that can carry over.
• Business functions are starting to rely on SAS Data Integration Studio work product shortly after introduction.
