Data Lineage: Because TimeXtender stores your business logic as metadata, you can choose any data element and review the lineage all the way back to the source database to ensure users their data is complete, accurate, and reliable. Impact Analysis: Because all your business rules are saved as metadata, TimeXtender allows you to easily evaluate the impact of changing a data source, a data field, or a transformation. Automatic Project Documentation: Using a project's metadata, TimeXtender can automatically generate complete, end-to-end documentation of your entire data environment. This includes names, settings, and descriptions for every object (databases, tables, fields, security roles, etc.) in the project and code, where applicable. Future Proof-Agility Fast Implementation: TimeXtender seamlessly overlays your data infrastructure, which means you can build a complete data solution in days, not months - no more costly delays or disruptions. Scalable \& Future-Proof: Because TimeXtender is independent of data sources, storage services, and visualization tools, you can be assured that your data infrastructure can easily adapt to new technologies and scale to meet your future analytics demands. > > Verdict: Rated **4.6/5** by 10 users.

Every feature is unique in its own way.But there are areas to improve which is:-external executables feature is not very reliable sometimes.-Multiple environment transfer feature can be improved. when a user has it open then the person trying to promote the project is unable to get the transfer window option unless the active user is logged out. > > It has been 26 months since I have started working on ETL and have been part of MDM projects and data warehousing project and also have good experience on developing dashboards using semantic layer endpoints and DAX development. I am also a TX-200 certified. I could achieve all this because of my organization and Timextender. Tx has played a great role in shaping up my career as a developer. ----- ### "Ease of use. Ease of changing default behavior" — 5.0/5 > **Niels Bjarne** | *30 May 2023* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Most can be done in the UI without coding. The rest can be added where you want with TSQLDeployment is easyHow easy it is to make a new execution package for a specific purpose > > **Cons**: When equivalent TSQL function or reserved word cannot be searched in TimeXtender UI / TimeXtender documentation > > Creating a data warehouce used for reporting and input for critical bussiness application ----- ### "TimeExtender Review" — 4.0/5 > **Keith** | *8 June 2023* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: TimeExtender is a fast and flexible way to build a data warehouse. It can import from multiple file formats. And the interface layout makes sense. > > **Cons**: Column deletion -- if you change the file layout, it will automatically delete columns that no longer appear in the layout. We needed the columns to remain as the data is still relevant. The workaround is to keep the column even though you are not using it but we learned that the hard way. Stored Proc calling -- it was not clear how to call a stored procedure and use the results if any. > > For the most part, the experience was good. We had TX pro come out and train us and answer our questions about advance features and scenarios. ----- ### "Easy and simple ETL tool" — 4.0/5 > **Surendra** | *30 May 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Data transformations, Relationships ,Customer columns and measures, Execution packages > > **Cons**: Some times its not behave properly and Code promotion > > It's solves most kind of business requirements and very easy to use ----- ### "TimeXtender User" — 4.0/5 > **Sowjanya** | *11 May 2023* | Public Relations & Communications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like most getting data from different sources and support. > > **Cons**: Transformations using SQL queries. Sometimes I need to use SQL queries because I could not find documentation for transformations. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/322216/timextender?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/322216/timextender) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
