TimeXtender Reviews & Product Details

Ease of use. Easy to connect several data sources, especially after the implementation of the TX Rest connector. This enables users to set up API connections more easy than through the CDATA connector with the necessary RSD files. Although some improvements can still be made. The drag and drop interface easily allows for transformations with low-code/no code and easily integrates the incremental and history features when necessary in the datawarehouse. The customer support is easy to reach, responds quickly and helpfully. Furthermore, the integration of the Orchestration, orginally from Exmon, now allows for an integrated and holistic way of loading all data, from every datasource up to the final data visualization tooling. Next to that, TX now will keep the v20 version alive, which is a lifesaver for some of our clients that do not want their repository ending up somewhere in the cloud.

The new (6xxx) version of TX hasn't been an improvement in all aspects of the new functionalities; some functionalities are lost. The ODX server and the fact that the repository is not available anymore, leads to loss of valuable information in case of connectivity issues and/or errors. The ability to simply load from ODX all the way up to semantic models in one simple execution package is less efficient, due to the data on demand functionality. We have had cases where loading a full ODX load and then the full datawarehouse was more efficient in terms of time than when using the data on demand functionality.

The help received always good

Customer support good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not really much to dislike, maybe sometimes it takes time to answer my requests but that's not really something that can be changed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All the core DWH tasks are automated, logical set up of the layers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes it behaves unexpected, some datasource connectors need manual labor when working with large datasets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

TimeXtender allows you to quickly set-up a data warehouse. It's relatively easy to extract data from simple sources and load them into your data warehouse. Building reports on top of data in your TimeXtender data warehouse is also easy to establish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Loading more complex sources into TimeXtender is a challenge. If you have an easy to use REST API it's not very difficult, but if you need to apply pagination for example it requires more technical knowledge. Another thing is the collaboration. Collaboration itself is fine, but it's sometimes difficult to develop small pieces of code. If I would start working on a table and the project would be pushed to another environment it will also take my changes. Branching would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extensive community site with helpful articles about all kinds of topics. Very helpful Customer Support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a new tool for me to learn, so it is probably more an issue of getting used to. But the sources, tables and views in the different stages can be overwhelming and difficult to sort / group Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the simplicity of TX, that it saves time and it is much faster to build a data warehouse with TX than to build the data warehouse in the traditional way. I like that you can do everything in one place

It makes the need for hard core developers obsolete, especially for mid size data projects.

But then also allows for rapid growth where and when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Haven't had the experience yet to name something specific.

Perhaps the ui could do with a refresh to be even further match the low code proposition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
