We performed a comparison between Informatica PowerExchange 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 data transformation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"This product is easy to install and it can be done in a few hours."
"The most valuable feature is connectivity to data sources."
"The transformation work called for Informatica PowerExchange. It was easy to work with this and very stable."
"The user interface and user experience are perfectly all right."
"Overall, it's a good tool. It's currently number one on the market. It pretty much has all the necessary capabilities to pull the incremental data from the source system, technically speaking."
"The main benefit of PowerExchange is its native real-time capabilities. Competing tools are counting on third-party packages or Oracle to offer real-time capabilities. However, Informatica has a native ability to scan the data on the file system level and capture the changes almost instantly when I push it to the consumers. The solution has a powerful built-in replication engine."
"Support has been great."
"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 most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"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 pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"It's very user-friendly when it comes to settings and configuration. It also offers very detailed logging about warnings and errors."
"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."
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue."
"The connectivity with T24 core banking could be improved."
"Technical support can be improved with respect to delays in ticket response time."
"I would like the stability to improve."
"I would like to have easier integration with cloud platforms."
"Real-time has not been enhanced that much over the past few years. There has not been as many features added like they did before."
"The solution could be made more user-friendly. The configurations are also quite difficult."
"The product is not suitable for application integration."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"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."
"It's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"This product could be improved by providing more insight regarding errors. One of our customers that uses Qlik Replicate has had an issue. We tried to debug it, but we could not trace the error message. The infrastructure site should give us more insight about errors. Qlik Replicate is not a business solution, it's an IT solution. The reporting tools and bug site should be improved."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
