Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use InterSystems IRIS throughout the company. It assists us in migrating legacy code, solving customer problems through systems development, and creating APIs in a simple and fast way.

Pros and Cons

The support provided by InterSystems was great when I needed to ask some questions about the characteristics of IRIS.
It provides several tools that enable the development of BI and API's applications according to the customers' needs.
Docker support.
The database is robust and offers excellent performance even with a large amount of information.

The usability of the administration portal could be better.
InterSystems' technology is still not very common, so it is difficult to recruit experienced professionals.

Return on Investment

I believe that the main impact is to be able to meet customer needs. On that point, InterSystems IRIS provided subsidies to make this possible.

Usability

With the exception of the administration portal that is used most frequently by the database administrator, all other tools have excellent usability.

Support Rating

The support is excellent, with attentive professionals who assist in solving all types of problems. The community, despite being small, is very active and also contributes to eventual doubts.
