    "There is no toolkit better at any price"

    August 30, 2009  |   By voipguy

    Version: DataSlave Professional 2.2

    Pros

    Excellent integration and operation. Powerful, flexible, and remarkably extensible. Great support as well

    Cons

    Not a single thing, been using it for years!

    Summary

    I have used this toolkit to build what has become the most powerful ETL tool anywhere. Used by many Fortune 100 clients of mine, DataSlave and it's staff never lets me down. There is simply nothing better for programmatic ETL at any price.

    It's not always easy to get in touch with Baycastle. I think their spam filters are a little agressive

    "Powerful product, with great support"

    August 18, 2009  |   By IainMercer

    Version: DataSlave Professional 2.2

    Pros

    This is a very powerful product that can be put to many uses. The inbuilt functions for connectivity, data manipulation and validation make life much easier than if you were trying to do it from scratch.

    Cons

    The fact that the licensing require either internet connectivity or a dialogue with Baycastle can be a hassle, but only a small one.

    "Powerful migration tool both configurable & extensable"

    August 13, 2009  |   By RWEkstrand

    Version: DataSlave Professional 2.2

    Pros

    Allows non-programmers to configure data migration with validation and transforms

    Cons

    Have run into no serious problems.
    We would like to have more control over parallel activities and execution.

    Summary

    I like that we can use builtin functionality and that we can extend it to work with proprietary data that we need to get at.

    "So easy to use and a very refined product."

    August 7, 2009  |   By sbranney

    Version: DataSlave Professional 2.2

    Pros

    Great ease of use and the drag and drop way you can pull complex data transformations together is excellent. With DataFlex data this did what other drivers failed to do. Great support too.

    Cons

    No cons I'm afraid!

    Summary

    This product dug us out of a major hole with a project to access DataFlex data and transform it reliably into SQL Server. We had this up and running in minutes and great service meant we had a license key very quickly. Whilst the interface takes a bit of learning, the online demo is a great idea and once up and running we could do things in DataSlave in moments that had taken a long time in SQL. I can't fault it and just wish I had more projects that I could use this product with!

    Very flexible and great, deep features, very functional. Good support.

    "Flexible and easy to use with object building blocks"

    August 5, 2009  |   By steve_shafer

    Version: DataSlave Professional 2.2

    Pros

    The product uses object building blocks that provide the ability to customize data transfers to achieve my objectives. The objects make it easy to step through a conversion, analyzing the data at each step. Email support was excellent.

    Cons

    It would be nice if documentation included more detailed examples.
