InterSystems IRIS Reviews

Summary: In general, it is a great database, its speed keeps you ahead of your competitors.
I hope that IRIS will grow in popularity to facilitate the search for information and questions about it.

Positive: I work with UX, and the company uses IRIS, I've worked with other databases, but IRIS surprised me with the speed of data access.

Negative: I realized that IRIS is still not widely used, which makes it difficult to solve small problems, which could be solved with a quick search on search engines.

Summary: I really like the InterSystem technology and i am starting to use them, Actually we use only caché and zen.

Positive: I really like the IRIS REST applications and extensions in Visual Studio Code and DBeaver CE, are very useful.

Negative: I have no cons about IRIS, because I am new to InterSystem technology, but REST applications are very interesting.

Summary: It's the best multidimensional database, a spectacular tool for high end applications and even to apply new technologies.

Positive: It's a high performance database, the union of two products (Caché and Ensemble) with a lot of enhancements.

Negative: Until now, we don't have any, we upgraded applications from Caché to IRIS, it's all fine.

Summary: The product is very awesome and have a lot of tools include them. The community are the most active I've ever see in my life. The support and the usability is amazing.

Positive: The community has very active users in helping other users. Customer support is very good. The administration portal is easy to handle and has a great view. The support with the most current technologies is fantastic.

Negative: The software is kind of difficult if you're a beginner, then you need a lot of time to hang of it. And the expert or someone with a good qualification is very hard to find.

Summary: Working with intersystems IRIS is getting easier and easier as they are now moving to containerized releases, even though the great flexibility that the platform gives to the user has a little price to pay regarding complexity.

Positive: Intersystems IRIS inherits the great flexibility from caché and this comes in superb configurability and customization.

Negative: Complexity is the price to pay for having so much great features on the balance.

Summary: InterSystems IRIS provides a large amount of possibilities and capabilities to manage large amounts of data with high performance. It comes with a bunch of analytics stuff and the InterSystems support for its products is great. The learning curve is a bit stiff, could be a little more friendly.

Positive: InterSystems IRIS provides a large amount of features, basically an all-in-one software, eliminating the need to other tools. Also, it provides a good analytics feature for you to monitor your data in lots of interesting ways. The InterSystems support service is great, there is no way to go wrong with that.

Negative: The software is a bit difficult to use, specially if you are a beginner. But once you get the hang of it, it's ok. Could be a little more noob friendly, tho.

Summary: The caché and ensemble have been integrated in only one tool which is IRIS. This tool created a lot of new possibilities such as working with machine learning and integrate it with python, node and AWS.

Positive: Created a lot of new possibilities such as working with machine learning, integration with python, node and AWS that creates a much faster environment.

Negative: The license is pricier than just buying ensemble. Also it's a new tool that it's not been used a lot and a training is highly required.

Summary: Until now I've had good experience and support since I work in a friendly and helpful company, had a few struggles in the beginning to get all the singularities of the language but now I'm used to it and works great and I can see multiples uses for it.

Positive: Very fast and scalable database, good management for huge data flow with safe paths providing full resources to build a complete application without needing anything else.

Negative: Lack of information on the open web for some particularities and the Studio editor is kind of outdated.

Summary: Intersystems Iris provides all the necessary functionality for creating and maintaining systems. The database has an excellent performance, the creation of APIs for external communication is simple and the programming language is full of features. In addition, it makes it possible to work with legacy code and the support is good.

Positive: For me, the main pros of the tool are reliability, database speed, wide range of features and agile support.

Negative: As it has many configuration options, the administration portal is sometimes confusing.

Summary: Very very very satisfied. There is nothing so powerful and flexible on the market. It is ahead of it's time.

Positive: There is nothing on the market so fast and rapporteur.
Very flexible and adaptable, information can be consumed natively in many ways. Global, queries, API test, odbc, orm's, etc ...

Negative: We still need more libraries to link with other services without having to depend on other languages such as java or .net

Summary: Solved the work with legacy code on a new environment.
If you need stored data the fastest way - It is the right decision.

Positive: I use Caché since the older versions and I liked this one in particular because of the information from open communications without losing the best, its high performance and speed in small and large applications.
Allowing connectivity with other open libraries opens up a world of possibilities and performance gains in the development of our software since we can use several frameworks to facilitate the writing of the code.

Negative: Administration portal. Isn't easy to understand.

Summary: InterSystems IRIS it's really very easy to install, configure and deploy.
Reliable, high speed and easy, it's a perfect solution

Positive: InterSystems IRIS It offers high-performance database maintenance, interoperability, machine learning, and analytics features all built-in from the ground up to date, which simplifies the most complex data-intensive applications.
High performance, as a database it's robust and very fast.

Negative: The COS language is too simple. Ok, it's a double-edged sword, it is easy to learn but to solve some kind of problems demands a lot of code.

Summary: The system is very stable, so I never had problems with this gear. I appreciate Intersystems IRIS and I use this one every day.

Positive: Intersystems IRIS is a perfect solution, principally for the health area. The database is very security and is easy to use.

Positive: Intersystems IRIS has a very good mechanism for database management. It is secure and reliable. Special mentions to exceptional customer support!

Negative: It is an advanced software and requires training of staff. It takes a while before you can use IRIS efficiently.
