Accurate data and reliable

CData Connect is used to extract data from our own Facebook ads campaigns The most valuable feature of CData Connect is the accuracy of the data. The amount of data that can be extracted at one point in time should be improved. I have been using CData Connect for approximately three months.…

Quick to set up, flexible, and stable

The scheduling part I don't like due to the fact that it allows you to schedule as a parent and child and other things, however, the error trackability has to be a little more user-friendly. It's also not user-friendly in the sense that it loads all the jobs and there are not enough filters so that it doesn't need to load everything. If the job fails, you don't get any type of alert or email. It would be ideal if there was some sort of automated alert message. Technical support isn't the best. It would be ideal if we understood how to do it in a card exception regarding exclusion, where the card is captured separately rather than filling the whole process on the data inbound side. Certain workloads like this are organized in such a way where you seem to be doubling the work as opposed to streamlining the process.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The most valuable feature of CData Connect is the accuracy of the data."

"RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."

"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."

"I like the data vault implementations."

"The most valuable feature is the metadata generated code."

"Their support staff are very knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. I feel their support staff go above and beyond to assure their customers are satisfied."

"The tool supports multiple target update methods."

"WhereScape is really helpful in terms of architecture data. Everything is one of automation. Two people can do thousands of tables in one day or two. It saves a lot of time."

"Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."

More WhereScape RED pros

Cons

"The amount of data that can be extracted at one point in time should be improved."

"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."

"Customization could be better."

"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."

"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."

"The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it."

"No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded ."

"They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box."

More WhereScape RED cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Our company purchased a corporate unlimited license."

"Speed to market of a warehouse solution at a relatively inexpensive price point."

"ROI is at least 10 times."

"Factor in the price of specialized consulting who know this product. They're hard to find and expensive."
