### "Piltofish Product Suite - simply amazing "

May 9, 2019

5.0

As a software vendor servicing over 65 customers, having implemented numerous real time and batch interfaces, we have found eiPlatform to be fast, robust and extremely reliable. In fact we have over the past 3 years not experienced a route failure that was due to eiPlatform. In combination with eiDashboard we have enabled our first line support teams to effectively identify any operational issues experienced on the coal face thereby providing our customers with rapid feedback and faster issue resolution.

Pros

Depth of functionality, ease of use, capability to test and review data sets at each step in the assembly line, speed with which interfaces can be built, tested and deployed.

Cons

To be honest nothing comes to mind. It ticks all the boxes.

### "The Swiss-Army Knife of Data"

July 26, 2024

5.0

One of the best things (that seems to get overlooked when purchasing a product) is the outstanding, fast, and intimate support experience. When we e-mail/call in a problem, we go straight to someone who can fix it without the runaround that you get with other vendors. Overall, now that we have the Pilotfish eiPlatform in our environment, I honestly (honestly!) can't imagine not having it. We've been able to do so many neat integrations that we never thought possible before.

Pros

The capability of the Pilotfish eiPlatform is staggering. This product, along with the accompanying eiConsole, allows us to rapidly develop, test, and deploy integrations between disparate systems in our hospital. If there is a need to move and transform data from one point to another \*reliably\*, this is the tool. The amount of built in integration transports and listeners borders on the ludicrous. In addition to our main goal of HL7 integration between our EHR and third-party software, we've also been able to connect things we never imagined, like our HRIS to our service ticketing system, payroll and employee data to our reporting platform, and so much more. The eiConsole software used to design the workflows (routes in Pilotfish parlance) allows for quick, graphical, drag and drop manipulation of data in a linear, easy-to-follow fashion. Don't be fooled, however; For the power user, there are options to go "straight to the code" and directly manipulate the transforms with real-time, robust error checking. The eiPlatform has enabled us to break down data silos and improve efficiency across the organization.

Cons

Honestly, there are no cons. The software is necessarily large in scope due to its versatile nature. The training will cover the "need to know" aspects of developing workflows on the platform, but there is a lot to learn, so be prepared to reference the excellent documentation when you first start out!

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing eiPlatform

Very positive word-of-mouth from other users, very competitive pricing, easy development experience, and outstanding pre- and pos- sales support.

### "Review of Pilotfish eiPlatform"

May 9, 2019

4.0

Pros

These are the points that i like about the software: 1. It is very versatile 2. It uses functions and processors that other software don't have and that are really useful when needed 3. It is user friendly

Cons

The least thing i liked about the software is that it does not really support big data and that it is very memory intensive

### "PilotFish eiConsole @ TouchPoint"

May 7, 2019

5.0

We needed a single interface & integration engine that would support development and deployment of both HL7 and non-HL7 interfaces between our products and various hospital information systems, medication and inventory management systems, and asset management systems. The eiPlatform gave us that solution with a low cost-of-entry in terms of training and ramp-up for our integration technicians as well as our software development team.

Pros

We've used PilotFish's eiConsole since 2012 to quickly develop end-to-end interfaces for our mobile medication management products. The winning combination of their easily-digestible training, simple yet powerful console user interface, and even a repository of existing interface templates (PIE) made PilotFish an easy decision when we needed to integrate an interface broker solution.

Cons

It's a minor point but the console UI can be a bit tricky to navigate, especially busy UI screens like the data mapper, on a laptop or smaller screen.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing eiPlatform

Primarily ease of use. The console user interface and functionality were heavily preferred by our integration technicians and software engineers, over the competitive products we evaluated.

### "Pilotfish Review"

December 22, 2022

5.0

We are using pilotfish as a service bus connecting many disparate data sources in a hub and spoke fashion.It was very easy to use and its queuing and transport capabilities allowed us to quickly add new services with just a simple configuration, eliminating the need for coding and thus saving money.

Pros

PilotFish is the most intuitive and robust software solution I have ever worked with. Which says a lot. I have 30 years experience working with products from Oracle, IBM and Microsoft. None of them have been as stable as PilotFish. We have had a PilotFish eiPlatform (the runtime) running for 5 years and it just keeps on chugging along. What I really appreciate is that it is so flexible and versatile. As middleware, PilotFish is a truly a universal adaptor. I can work with any data format and communications protocol. If it did not include a prebuilt listener, transport or processor that I’ve needed, the product’s Open API, allows you to extend the product. While its graphical assembly line approach for configuring interfaces makes it appear that the product is only suited for simple integration, it is a workhorse. I have found that PilotFish can handle the most complex process orchestrations and integration scenarios. One of our uses was to use it to call stored procedures allowing us to leverage existing code. The PilotFish support team is fantastic. The support process is very streamlined and responsive. The team consists of really bright software engineers who are great to work with. Their Docker deployment is a huge plus. Set up time is just minutes. I really like their new on-demand licensing model. I can spin up a bunch of servers for testing and since we only pay for actual runtime, we can keep your monthly cost low.

Cons

I cannot think of one aspect of the product that I wasn't happy with.

5.0

Pros

Multiplatform support with capability of control over each step of data input, processing, parsing, transformation, error handling, and data storage. From concept to production in a jiffy.

Cons

To maximize the the usability, you really need to get a deeper understanding of XSD.

### "PilotFish has a great platform and Product to work with."

June 5, 2020

5.0

This product handles the workload with ease and is very scaleable to our customer base. The PilotFish team is great to work with and really understand needs of their customers.

Pros

The Ease of use, flexibility and streamlined functionality

Cons

I haven't found anything yet to date.

Reason for choosing eiPlatform

The pricing flexibility as a vendor reseller that installs into our customer base and is embedded in our solution is great. The team was very responsive to our timeline and needs which makes this product invaluable to our products.

### "Pilotfish ETL"

September 10, 2019

5.0

Our company is building out all of our healthcare data transactions with the Pilotfish. This includes healthcare X12, NCPDP, and various other health care filles

Pros

The software is easy to learn and allows our team of analysts to implement ETL jobs. The software is very versatile allowing for any file type or connection to data. Unlike some ETL tools you can build complete platforms to manage your data acquisition and delivery methods.

Cons

I would like to have some light checkin built in for managing updates from multiple users. Their dashboard could use more end user configuration capabilities.

Reason for choosing eiPlatform

Value for price point, available functionality.

### "Advanced ELR System Integrator"

May 8, 2019

5.0

I have created an enterprise solution which receives data from numerous hospitals and laboratories, validates these feeds for both structure (XML, Excel, HL7) and content (required fields, terminologies). It then transforms this data into formats (XML, Flat) which the surveillance systems can consume. This system also creates data (HL7) for delivery to the CDC for various projects.

Pros

Very powerful compared to competitors like Rhapsody. Extensible custom processors provide a mechanism to build your own add-ons (listeners, processors, etc. etc.)

Cons

Requires a knowledge of XSLT which was a new paradigm for me.

### "Life Saver Platform!"

June 5, 2019

5.0

Right now we are running CCDAs, HL7s, and Claims data with little to no problems at all. With the platform we are leaving to move fully over to PilotFish it has been a pleasure to work with and have had night/day experience from where we were.

Pros

Love the ease of use and the speed of which you can get your job done on this platform. It has taken every file type we have thrown at it and processed the files with ease. The training materials that they offer online alone are very well thought out and put together to make their clients successful. The in-person training was very insightful and set us up to be successful right out of the gates with using the software. We have been able to turn around clients on our end 10 times faster than in the past.

Cons

The one thing I have found thus far is not an easy way to test out simple connections like SFTP from within the software.

### "Easy product to use"

May 8, 2019

5.0

I have found that if you think outside the box to help a customer the solution will always involve PilotFish to provide that outside the box functionality

Pros

It is flexible and easy. There are so many different methods to transform messages. There are videos and tutorials to teach you how to use this product even after training. The team at PilotFish is very responsive for any questions. One of the best customer services encountered.

Cons

The software really does not have any cons that I can think of

Whenever I have contacted PilotFish support, I receive almost an immediate response, and my issue or question is resolved on the same day! Everyone I have spoken with from the support team has been knowledgeable and helpful.

5.0

Pros

The best thing about eiPlatform is the range of features and integrations supported by it. This tool forms an all in one package to meet most of your integration development needs. It supports the latest technologies and incorporates support for varies platforms. One of the most attractive features I liked about it is the ease of using the XSLT mapping tool! It's easy and quick!

To date we’ve been able to accomplish all our goals with the eiPlatform and explore innovative ways to solve other problems.

Pros

Intuitive once acclimated to interface.

Cons

I worked on an older version, so some things a little “outdated” visually, but I’d take functionality over form any day.

Before leveraging the eiPlatform, we were making code changes to accommodate the smallest changes.

Pros

eiPlatform provides a complete integration solution in an easy to use application set. The eiPlatform also supports all of our database management systems.

### "Powerful and flexible data transformation engine."

May 8, 2019

5.0

We have utilized eiPlatform to create HL7 interfaces to interact with Hospital Information Systems. It has been very flexible to accommodate the subtle changes imposed by the HL7 providers, and very reliable and performant to process the incoming traffic demands.

Pros

Intuitive graphical user interface and the capability of a containerized engine version. Highly customizable to interact with a variety of components (databases, web services, custom services) in the data transformation chain.

Cons

For advanced customizations without utilizing the graphical, it is necessary to utilize XSLT.

May 7, 2019

5.0

We have been using the platform for years to extract clinical data from multiple ehr systems, normalizing values and populating a data warehouse. Our staff was easily trained and support is always a phone call away - although seldom used.

Pros

This is the most user friendly and easy to use transformation software that produces comprehensive and precise results.

Cons

Can't really identify any negative issues.
