"Fast, reliable and with great technical support"
What do you like best about InterSystems IRIS?

It's fast, lets you work with many technologies, not just healthcare-related ones and integrates many cool features in your projects by default. Without doing any extra work, you will get a trace log that allows you to search and redo processes fixing errors. It includes a fast and flexible database with a tree structure that can also be used with regular SQL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InterSystems IRIS?

It's a healthcare solution with many cool features, so as you will expect unless you have enough with community licenses, pricing can be harsh for small projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, Flexible, and Scalable"
What do you like best about InterSystems IRIS?

IRIS includes loads of options to do whatever it is you do. You can now even do your programming in Python, which opens up a ton of new possibilities. It's been very rare that we've run into something that IRIS didn't have the built-in functionality to get the job done. When you need help, both the community website and the customer service are great. In fact, you can get to talk to actual people at InterSystems very quickly!

What do you dislike about InterSystems IRIS?

IRIS is a bit pricier than most other solutions, and their built-in Analytics tool is a little bit inelegant and clunky to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Interoperability platform for any healthcare use-cases"
What do you like best about InterSystems IRIS?

I work as an engineering delivery manager. It has been more than 12 years, I have been working with cache database, cache object script, and IRIS (Ensemble). It always provides the flexibility to customize based on unique customer needs. No one in the current industry can beat the processing speed and throughput on this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InterSystems IRIS?

Intersystems delayed the release of the production-ready docker image or containers, operators etc for the IRIS platform, which restricted us from using it on AKS clusters. Quicker release on containers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Most powerful Business Objects environment"
What do you like best about InterSystems IRIS?

The security, performance, built in object functionality and tight integration, which ensures rapid solution development and fail safe delivery of the most complex requirement in a simplified object structure. The Business Intelligence and unstructured data capabilities in the core of the system, provided by a single stack environment. No other development environment provides the levels of integrated functionality and ability to develop such powerful business objects. The connectivity engine is robust and has high levels of functionality and performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InterSystems IRIS?

The challenges to be faced by the developer community to satisfy business knowledge and experience when world wide adoption takes off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A new but very good option"
What do you like best about InterSystems IRIS?

It is an evolution of the already well-established Caché, and with this base, the trend is for it to get even better. It kept all the good qualities such as agility, stability and security and added new functions. It became the number one option for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InterSystems IRIS?

It's not a problem, however the fact that it is a new tool and that developers should only gradually start to migrate, eventually situations may appear that still have no resolution, however, as there is a very active community in Caché, this should be easily done contoured.
