We performed a comparison between Fivetran and Qlik Replicate based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ease of usability is the most valuable feature. It's very easy and quick to set up. It also has a central hub as opposed to GoldenGate which is one direct interface. For GoldenGate I would have needed three interfaces whereas with HVR I have a central interface that manages everything."
"Its arrays are powerful enough to handle migrations even when the replication is happening in the background, without causing any trouble with the ongoing traffic."
"Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly."
"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues."
"You can manage all of your connectors individually, which gives you a very good ability to trace which one of your ETL processes is running and when."
"There's the general feature of the platform where it just makes it very easy to integrate different things, but I would say a specific difference is their integration of DBT,."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"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."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"Support has been great."
"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."
"Great with replicating and updating records."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"It's very user-friendly when it comes to settings and configuration. It also offers very detailed logging about warnings and errors."
"The solution is very expensive. I would like to have a better integration of the solution with Azure."
"This solution needs to improve its real-time data and transformation availability."
"HVR Software's technical support could be improved. Whenever we log a case, the response that we get from the support is a bit delayed."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"The documentation can be laid out better to make it easier to find things, and I really wish there was built-in support for changing passwords. Some features don't work as advertised for the platform/repository database, and HVR is not always the fastest at getting results."
"It should have a few more monitoring functionalities."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"We use a separate tool for "reverse ETL", which is the opposite of what Fivetran does; it pushes data from your data warehouse back out to business applications. If Fivetran pulls data from those same applications, they should also enable users to push it back. I would love to do both ETL and reverse ETL in the same tool."
"When you remote into it the Qlik Replicate UI a lot of times it just freezes. We set up the EC2, to allow them to go to the server and click on the Replicate icon, it just opens up and just sits there. At that point, we have to go into the EC2 and then reboot the server. This should be fixed, it is frustrating."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"Some features can also be overly dependent on each other. So, there is room for improvement."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."
