We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Great with replicating and updating records.""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 CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate.""Support has been great.""We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments.""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'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 solution is very scalable. It can handle a lot. We have encryption plus integration servers running on that platform currently.""The most valuable part of the solution is the ease-of-use and ease of deployment.""XML to JSON transformations, out-of-the-box, helps to build REST services.""The Business Studio interface based on SCA Standards helps to show the business logic at first look and improve code maintenance.""The OSGI console is available to debug different issues and get low level informations on the applications development, like bundle, dependencies, etc.""The initial setup of TIBCO BusinessWorks was straightforward since we have used the solution in our organization for a long time.""The most valuable feature is the low-code platform.""We use the solution to develop applications."

Cons
"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-wise, this solution is in need of improvement.""We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system.""Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved.""It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious.""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."

More Qlik Replicate Cons →

"There are multiple plugins which increase the number of product installations.""The cost has room for improvement.""Technical support is average. It's not the best.""The cost of the solution has room for improvement.""The technical support's turnaround time is an area where TIBCO needs to consider improvements...Getting support from TIBCO on a particular issue takes a lot of turnaround time.""The communication protocols could be improved.""A possible improvement could be to give the capability to use different profiles for each AppNode when an application is deployed on an AppSpace.""Its price can be improved. For medium enterprises, it is a very expensive tool. In the market, you won't get many resources for this solution. You won't find many developers in the market very easily. The latest version of TIBCO (6.4 or 6.x) is not very stable. It has got many issues. We have raised this with TIBCO, and they are taking a lot of time to come up with a fix, which is making us move away from this product. Some of the performance-tuning aspects are also missing in version 6. They should provide performance-related fixes, which will be helpful for the customers. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The product has evolved, but it is very pricey. That's one of the challenges. They have provided all the features that are there in other products, but this is a platform upgrade. The platform has completely been changed from 5.x to 6.x, and we can't use the same environment. We can't run both versions on the same server as VM. The development environment is entirely different. In version 5.x, there was a proprietary designer. Now, it has common plug-ins developed on top of Eclipse."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Qlik Replicate is not expensive, compared to GoldenGate."
  • "Pricing for this solution is very reasonable."
  • "Overall, Qlik is an expensive solution. You need to pay for all additional features that you would like to use."
  • "On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Qlik Replicate's pricing a nine out of ten."
  • More Qlik Replicate Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "My understanding is that the licensing is very costly."
  • "It is a bit expensive for medium-sized companies. If you are migrating from the current version to the container-supported version, it is quite expensive. The existing licensing will not work because the product platform itself is different."
  • "Its price policy has changed quite a lot in the last two years. It was extremely expensive previously. Nowadays, you can buy a license for BusinessWorks for €2000. Looking at what you get in return in terms of support, TIBCO community, and stability, it is fairly reasonable. It is not too expensive."
  • "I think BusinessWorks is more expensive compared to other products. We have the ELA, so at least we have some sort of bargain or discount with that. But for a start-up, it's very expensive compared to other ESBs."
  • "Licensing scheme is too rigid"
  • "I don't have the prices of the products, but I know that TIBCO is not a cheap solution. I think that this solution is more suitable for large companies because I don't think that small- or medium-sized companies would have the money for this solution. WSO2 has the community version for free, so many of the smaller companies can use it. I'm not sure what the prices are for support, though, so I suppose the support for WSO2 is not cheap either."
  • "The solution is too expensive. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there, particularly because there are so many open-source competitors on the market. I don't know the exact numbers, however."
  • "I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten."
