Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate.""The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations.""From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product.""We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments.""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.""It enables us to transform data at the latest stage rather than in ETL loads, so it's more ELT which is one of the advantages. It is also in near real-time, which brings significant advantage for our embedded analytics approach.""It's very user-friendly when it comes to settings and configuration. It also offers very detailed logging about warnings and errors.""A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."

"The most valuable feature is you have native access to the external databases.""The most valuable part of SAS/ACCESS is what it is made for: connecting to remote systems that are not part of your physical SAS environment.""The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ease of access to the data in those databases."

Cons
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system.""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.""In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst.""Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved.""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.""We'd like better connectivity.""Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement.""It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."

More Qlik Replicate Cons →

"The solution can provide access to the newer databases that come out sooner.""I can't really recall any missing feature or general improvement that is needed. We don't really add too many new kinds of databases and therefore our needs are already met.""The pricing model needs to be reconsidered and adjusted."

    Overview

    Qlik Replicate is a data replication solution for replicating data from one source database to another for business intelligence software. It offers data manipulation and transformations, replication without impacting source databases, and ease of use without needing ETL. The solution is stable and user-friendly, with detailed logging and support. 

    Qlik Replicate has improved the organization by allowing each team to replicate their data into a single-source data location. The most important feature of Qlik Replicate is its ability to replicate and update records without needing a programmer.

    SAS/ACCESS is an out-of-the-box solution for integrating SAS and third-party databases. You can read, write and update data regardless of the database or platform. Because the data appears native to SAS, there is no need to learn Structured Query Language (SQL) or any other database-specific query languages.
