Overall Satisfaction with SQL Server Integration Services

We use SQL Server Integration Services to pull data from FTP sites.
  • Our clients have branches and each branch generates a flat file and loads to a remote site from which we pull and consolidate the data and report from the consolidated data.
  • SSIS would allow [us] to execute a batch file which will pull the files and decrypt.
  • SSIS transformations are easy to use when [they] loop around the files in the same folder.
  • SSIS expressions are difficult to read and comprehend.
  • SSIS fuzzy loop up transformation performance needs to be optimized.
  • SSIS packages code should be easy to copy and modify so that it can easily be replicated just like BIML.
  • Automation leading to cost savings due to less headcount
  • Eliminate redundancy
  • Better customer service
Can SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) perform multiple unrelated tasks within a package?
