We performed a comparison between Oracle GoldenGate and Zapier based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."What I like most about Oracle GoldenGate is that it supports cross-platform migrations. For example, Oracle GoldenGate could pump data from one type of system to another such as the data from Oracle DB to SQL Db2."
"The product's initial setup phase was very simple."
"This solution has a well-known procedure for troubleshooting and tuning the performance, providing for smooth operation."
"GoldenGate can connect and collect data from multiple sources, such as SQL Server."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."
"One feature that stands out for me is the data center capability."
"The solution is useful for data transformation."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It doesn't take too much time or effort to implement the solution."
"Zapier luckily has a wide range of integrations, I would say."
"The most valuable feature of Zapier is it saves me time doing repetitive tasks."
"We find it effortless to set up. We really don't have to do anything other than finding the application in the Zapier catalog. And as long as the application has been re-integrated into Zapier, they're able to then just provide the connection details and hook it up."
"What's most valuable in Zapier is its simplicity, seamlessness, and smooth plug-in, so you won't need to build code for every action. I'm not a developer, but I can use Zapier."
"The ability to connect web applications to trigger actions in another app after having enriched, formatted, delayed, grouped, and filtered is really valuable for many businesses."
"Zapier is a really good tool for connecting multiple different platforms and data sources. For example, with Quickbase, I can easily integrate data from other sources like AWS or task-tracking platforms such as ClickUp or Asana."
"We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature."
"There are a few valuable features, like the stability that it comes with and also the number of features that it offers. I've used other services like Pabbly, but they don't offer similar numbers of applications that Zapier has or allows to integrate with – it's maximum."
"Oracle GoldenGate could improve the price."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."
"The solution is quite costly, and if they could reduce their pricing, it would be more economical to implement."
"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."
"The solution costs a lot."
"It is not a very stable tool, and you need to monitor it perfectly."
"Technical support for Oracle products needs to be more efficient (at least locally in Egypt)."
"It is not worth the money if you have a little bit of a technical mind...Zapier is not able to set up different modules. When automation doesn't work, it's not that easy to find why it didn't work."
"Zapier needs to improve in the same way most RPA solutions should, such as Robocorp, Make, or UiPath. They are not good at helping you find the connections that you need for the problem that you have. For example, if need something on Instagram. I'm going to have to do research for hours to be able to find the components or the app, which is going to do what I need it to do. It makes it difficult to use the system when you don't know what to use."
"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."
"My biggest concern with Zapier would be their pricing strategy."
"I would like to see them improve the Quickbase integration. Currently, it only allows triggering actions when records are added, but it would be more useful if we could also trigger actions when records are modified or deleted."
"I think that this solution should have more apps connected to it."
"Some apps are not available yet. For instance, a connection with Joomla! would be great. In general, all the most-used apps are available, but I bumped into Joomla! with a client."
"There is room for improvement in the support. They are not responsive, and they don't take much time to get resolved."
