"Helps me organize my analytical process"

4/5

What do you like best about Progress DataDirect?

Since I have both cloud and on-premise data this is a great asset in Hybrid Data Pipeline that connects the two. It enables using the common interfaces for getting the data such as SQL and OData to operate the data from both environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress DataDirect?

The Hybrid Data Pipeline procedure has very limited data transformation features. This in turn means that data transformation needs to be done using different tools, which therefore adds more steps in the data pipeline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
