Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."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."
"Support has been great."
"Great with replicating and updating records."
"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."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"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."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"WhereScape's deployment package is a fantastic feature. The application allows for selecting specific objects that you would like to deploy from one environment to another rather than deploying the entire database."
"Support is absolutely excellent, efficient, and timely."
"It has a built-in automatic scheduling environment."
"This is a fantastically robust DW tool that will make you at least 10 times faster in producing a DW."
"I found the initial setup very easy."
"Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions."
"RED has provided us the ability to integrate, stage, and transform data from diverse sources into an enterprise-grade data warehouse which meets the needs of my organization, but it also enables us to easily and quickly make ETL or DW changes."
"RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."
"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."
"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."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it."
"Customization could be better."
"Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment."
"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."
"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"The ability to execute SSIS projects within WhereScape would be nice because we have a lot of packages that are too cumbersome to recreate."
"Technical support isn't the best."
