Best Tool Used to Manage and transform Data

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Microsoft Azure Data Factory from other similar products?

Best GUI is easy to Learn and work with. No coding is required simply drag-drop and auto backend coding. No special training is required.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Free Trial is available to understand and to use the product. The customer support is good, the response time is very fast from just 4-6 working hours. No coding skills are required, ready to use the product.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The integration of the existing product with Azure is mostly not compatible and not possible. Which makes a user difficult to move the complete database. It also results in minor dataloss. Data transformation reports can be better by adding a pre-generated summary.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Use this product to the fullest. The trial version offers complete functionality. The cost is very nominal and the productivity increased using this tool.

Pros

  • Generous Negotitation
  • Includes Product Enhancements
  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
