Powerful platform for data and application development
Reviewed on Oct 29, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about InterSystems IRIS is that it combines the database and application development on the same platform. This makes things much easier when working on applications that handle a lot of data.
I also appreciate the performance and the integration options. I was able to work with the data and connect different parts of the application without needing too many extra tools.
For me, the biggest advantage is that IRIS is a mature platform with many capabilities already built in, so I don’t have to create everything from scratch. The UI and UX are solid—simple and efficient. The price is OK, and the support is good and helpful. The AI is also extremely useful for multiple use cases.

What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I don't like is that IRIS can take some time to get used to, especially for developers who are coming from more common technologies. Some concepts and tools are not very intuitive at first and the documentation can be a little hard to navigate sometimes.
I also think the development experience could be more modern in some areas. There are many powerful features, but it can take some time to understand the best way to use them.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
IRIS is useful for applications that need to handle large amounts of data while keeping the data and application logic closely aligned. It also supports integration between different systems, which can cut down on the amount of custom code and the number of extra services you need to maintain.
For me, the biggest advantage is having the database, development tools, and integration capabilities all in one platform. That combination makes it simpler to build and maintain applications without having to juggle a lot of separate technologies.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that iris keeps all in one place like data storage integration and API's.
The security is built in and being able to use object script and SQL makes development more flexible and it performs very well on heavy load especially when dealing with healthcare data.

What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is a bit difficult because it has a lot of features and can be difficult for a beginner to understand without a senior or trainer.

Straightforward Data Manipulation with Elegant SQL Joins
Reviewed on Oct 06, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best is how straightforward data manipulation is. I love using simple commands to open a database register, like %Open, or accessing records by index using IdxUserNameOpen. On top of that, writing implicit joins using the -> operator in SQL queries is hands down the most elegant way to query data.
What do you dislike about the product?
The license model is a bit complicated. It's not always simple to understand or accurately measure how licensing is consumed in real-world scenarios.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest benefit I found in IRIS is that I don't need multiple databases anymore—one for caching, another for structured data, and a separate one for columnar values. Everything is handled in one single place.

Impeccable Fluency, Necessary Modernization
Reviewed on Sep 26, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the fluency of InterSystems IRIS and its unique global features. It's the first time I've used a technology with this capability, and I find it incredibly interesting. I enjoy how globals can be modified into tables, which makes them versatile and fascinating to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
I work with something deprecated called Studio, and I find it quite complicated to use because it doesn't have many features. This bothers me a lot. I hope to use newer technologies in the future, like Visual Studio Code, which would probably provide me with a better experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
InterSystems IRIS allows me to process data very quickly and with precision, handling large datasets effectively.
