Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience.""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.""We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done.""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."

More SAP Replication Server Pros →

"Quickly develops a data warehouse for our organization with documentation and can track back/forward features.""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.""The tool supports multiple target update methods.""Support is absolutely excellent, efficient, and timely.""I found the initial setup very easy.""Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions.""This is a fantastically robust DW tool that will make you at least 10 times faster in producing a DW.""Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."

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.""There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support.""I would like to see it become mobile-friendly.""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."

More SAP Replication Server Cons →

"The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application.""They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box.""No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded .""Technical support isn't the best.""Customization could be better.""It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully.""Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved.""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."
