Overall a positive experience. Steep learning curve for us but worth the time investment. Pretty sure we've saved ourselves money from this tool, thanks to the time saving element and the data matching capability.

Pros

Saves time integrating data into systems. Fairly easy to use and is capable of exporting, importing, cleaning, etc from common systems. We use the upsert feature quite heavily in our use setup and it works well. The scheduler is really nice to schedule jobs to run when needed or when someone is out of the office for a time.

Cons

Antiquated looking system that took some time to get used to. Initial set up was complicated and frustrating but we also didn't have a ton of expertise on staff at the time.

Trouble free in general but some quirks getting used to. Also it tends to output fair bit of warning message in the log file which may scare you at first.

Pros

ID matching insert and update and the choice of update and upsert are very useful. Allowing to save loading template also speed up repetitive loading.

Cons

When exporting table in to csv format sometime field value may mix together. Re-importing the table require to rename the csv file, i think that may be a mechanism to avoid overwritten the original file?

In a nutshell, this is lifesaving software for people who want to upload massive data into a system by using few clicks. Once the users familiarized with this software, they cannot imagine a day without this. Honestly, this helps often for Accounts and Finance teams to upload their number of transaction lines to their required platform. The subsequent benefit of using this software is, you can save an additional salary on data entry or admin assistant. Therefore, this is a cost-effective tool for your organization.

Pros

1\. Saving Humongous time for Accounts and Financial Teams to upload their Mass data into the system by using few clicks 2. It can integrate with topnotch business suites. Ex (Oracle) 3. Works quite handy with Excel since the setup distinctly works with Microsoft Excel 4. Finance Team often use this tool to upload Bank statements to the system and other bank-related related information

Cons

1\. Quite old fashioned due to lack of gleaming features. 2. Need Expertise knowledge to set up the initial system and link the integrated software, hence initial setup is not that easy. 3. If you miss a piece of information or an error is available in Masterfile, it does not recognize that error and quickly jump to the next piece of information and continue the rest of upload, therefore you need to have an alert system to notify the users regarding unusual text or missing information

Pros

This is a lifesaver! I have to use SQL daily but don't have a ton of time to really learn how to write it. This is where data loader comes in! I can connect it to the source I need to pull from and easily select the information I need from the menu and it will either export the report you need or give you the SQL statement you can copy and paste. This has been such a great tool, especially for a beginner.

Cons

There is a slight learning curve on how to use it and make sure you're getting the information that you need, but it's much easier than mastering SQL on your own!

Pros

I have been using Data Loader for over 2 years and it provides a slick easy and friendly way to enter my report data .

Cons

ITs a basic tool to do basic things, not much to complain about here. The other tools may offer more features but a different product.
