"They've recently improved the ease of implementation."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
"This solution has a well-known procedure for troubleshooting and tuning the performance, providing for smooth operation."
"When we are replicating data between similar databases then it is straightforward."
"The CDC feature is interesting."
"Data migration is the most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It doesn't take too much time or effort to implement the solution."
"The product offers very good flexibility."
"I am impressed with the tool's ability to customize."
"The tool is reliable, quick, and powerful."
"The technical support is excellent."
"This is an established product with powerful data analysis and varied options for user entry points."
"The solution is very stable. We haven't faced any issues with glitches or bugs. We haven't had any crashes."
"In terms of which features I have found most valuable, I would say the importing and exporting features. Additionally, the data sorting, categorizing and summarizing features, especially how it can summarize based on categories. These are the key features."
"Its robustness is valuable. It is a full-fledged suite. We have a data warehouse model, and there are also a lot of data quality management tools. The repository and all other tools are there. So, it is a full package in terms of reporting tools."
"It should be easier to integrate this solution with non-Oracle databases, including cloud-based solutions hosted on Azure."
"I find the user interface to be difficult for non-technical people."
"The main problem of Oracle GoldenGate is that sometimes, the processes get abended. Data consistency is also challenging."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"Lacks the ability to become a full-scale ETL tool."
"Regarding improvements, the focus should be on addressing data quality issues and minimizing delays, particularly in Oracle databases. The technical support should be improved as well. Additionally, in terms of features, it would be great if the solution could support APIs. The support is not friendly. They don’t respond on time."
"In some cases, expectations were not met, especially when specific tables were expected to be disabled, and changes were anticipated in the target environment. We had to take backups from the source and refresh the address to address this."
"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."
"We implemented it a while ago, and we are trying to improve the data delivery performance. We are looking into how to get faster and automated reporting. We would need better designs and workflows."
"Very little needs to improve but perhaps a nicer graphic interface and remaining competetive in the growing field of data analytics."
"I would like the tool to include the ability to automate the modifications of the integrations."
"One problem is accessing the data using a solution other than SAS. The SAS data, which we create in the SAS, cannot be accessed by other tools. We can't open those data in other applications. So we need to have that application in place."
"We find we often have to go back and re-train users when there are changes made to the solution because the changes are not intuitive."
"The pricing of the solution needs to be improved. They need to work to make it more affordable."
"With SAS Data Management, you have to purchase an external driver, configure all of the tables for all of the data that you will extract from Salesforce. It's not a straightforward process."
"The solution is quite expensive and hard to install/configure."
