Pros
"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.""The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations.""The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable 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.""From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product.""Great with replicating and updating records.""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."

"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage.""SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience.""SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy.""We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."

Cons
"The UI and data version control can be improved.""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.""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.""It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious.""In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst.""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."

More Qlik Replicate Cons →

"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see.""The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades.""I would like to see it become mobile-friendly.""There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
