It provides a customizable and graphical integrated development environment (IDE), eiConsole for developers to manage, maintain and implement EII, ETL and EAI processes. By defining a single set of standard protocols, eiPlatform allows enterprises to implement various data formats, communication rules and programming languages for testing, cross-platform deployment, and ongoing maintenance of applications. The platform is compatible with databases including any JDBC DB, MS Access and MongoDB along with custom error handling capabilities such as text-based logging and proactive notifications. Additionally, developers can establish workflow patterns to facilitate application integrations including sequencing, splitting, branching, merging, orchestration, and conditional logic. eiPlatform includes a REST application programming interface, which allows businesses to configure and run interfaces. Pricing is available on request and support is extended via phone and email. > > Verdict: Rated **4.9/5** by 22 users.

It ticks all the boxes. > > 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. ----- ### "The Swiss-Army Knife of Data" — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *26 July 2024* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **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\! > > 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. ----- ### "Review of Pilotfish eiPlatform" — 4.0/5 > **Stephan** | *9 May 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **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" — 5.0/5 > **Bob** | *7 May 2019* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **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. > > 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. ----- ### "Pilotfish Review" — 5.0/5 > **William** | *22 December 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **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. > > 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. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/102773/eiplatform?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/102773/eiplatform) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
