The summary above is based on 33 interviews we conducted recently with Qlik Replicate and Oracle GoldenGate users. To access the review's full transcripts, download our report.
"They've recently improved the ease of implementation."
"This solution has a well-known procedure for troubleshooting and tuning the performance, providing for smooth operation."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
"Oracle GoldenGate helps to select and target specific tables for replication. Any changes or operations on those tables are immediately reflected in the source and target environments."
"You can use Oracle GoldenGate as a DR for your system."
"For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"The replication of the data table is one of the best features."
"Oracle GoldenGate features work fine, which is what I like about it. I also like that it's scalable, easy to set up, and has good technical support."
"Qlik Replicate stands out with its cutting-edge technology and its ability to handle diverse data management tasks. This powerful tool allows us to efficiently and swiftly load data into various data stores or destinations, while also enabling easy distribution across different endpoints. A notable feature is its capability to reload data from multiple sources by creating multiple tasks within a brief timeframe of fifteen to twenty minutes. This eliminates the need for manual intervention and ensures quick data loading from different tables."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"Low-priced reporting and analytics solution, with good scalability and stability. It has on-premises and cloud versions that are cohesive and can integrate well."
"A valuable feature of Qlik Replicate is that you do not need ETL. It's easy to use—you choose two systems and it automatically replicates them. Even if there is no CDC available, if you insert it and update it, and there is nothing to find out, then you can use Qlik Replicate. It's a good product."
"The main valuable feature is its real-time change data capture (CDC) capabilities, which process data with minimal latency. There is not much delay. It also performs well with batch-wise data applications."
"It's very user-friendly when it comes to settings and configuration. It also offers very detailed logging about warnings and errors."
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate."
"Support has been great."
"It would be better for Oracle Golden Gate Studio GUI to include other licensed products (i.e. Veridata or others)."
"Additional performance metrics should be added and visible in a dashboard, displayed in a detailed manner."
"The solution costs a lot."
"It should be easier to integrate this solution with non-Oracle databases, including cloud-based solutions hosted on Azure."
"Troubleshooting issues is not always the easiest. It should be easier to troubleshoot. Their support can also be improved. They don't read your problem statement and waste a lot of time. GoldenGate for big data is actually a separate license. It is sort of a separate product, but it might fall underneath your GoldenGate category. If we're talking about big data, its interaction with big data sources is poorly documented."
"Lacks the ability to become a full-scale ETL tool."
"IBM CDC has one central control while Oracle GoldenGate has two controls. In IBM CDC we can do all things in frontend. The solution needs to incorporate a feature where we can connect it to a standby database."
"Some issues regarding stability need to be resolved."
"Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"In various scenarios, an important consideration is when we encounter issues and Qlik Replicate suggests reloading a specific table. If we face any problems or encounter errors with that table, it becomes necessary to make a change in Qlik Replicate. Performing a full reload every time is not feasible or practical. Instead, we should identify the specific issues and address them without repeating the entire reloading process. Based on this approach, we can investigate and resolve the problem by performing targeted loads from the source itself. This change aligns with my perspective and is something I would like to implement."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."
"Some features can also be overly dependent on each other. So, there is room for improvement."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
