Provides an ease of access and an automated mapping feature
We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records. Above that, we need to look for alternative solutions. They could provide automated transformation or mapping features around 10 to 15 independent data objects. We could have a default mark or limit of free usage for standard objects. It will be helpful. Additionally, we can have more integrations with large data volumes as we need a lot of exercises to handle the files in case of complex sites.

Syncs data in real-time while managing transaction volumes
The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its ability to sync data in real-time, which is crucial for me. I set it to a master-master pluggable database that serves as a container used from clones to provide test environments for various teams. This makes it very effective in managing high-volume transactions. The ability to sync data in real time is a key feature I rely on.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DataLoader is cost-effective since it is free."
"I find DataLoader's ability to easily integrate with external keys valuable, which is a bit more challenging with DBM."
"he product’s most valuable feature is ease of access."
"CDC is the most valuable feature."
"You can put data together from a few databases into one database or the other way, from one database into several. It transforms data in real-time."
"You can use Oracle GoldenGate as a DR for your system."
"This solution has a well-known procedure for troubleshooting and tuning the performance, providing for smooth operation."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its ability to sync data in real-time, which is crucial for me."
"For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"The product is reliable for data integrity."
 

Cons

"DataLoader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions."
"Dataloader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions. Additionally, at times it can be slow, and when integrating DBM, we find it more complex than Dataloader."
"We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records."
"Technical support for Oracle products needs to be more efficient (at least locally in Egypt)."
"The solution costs a lot."
"The product lacks some features and it's expensive."
"I find the user interface to be difficult for non-technical people."
"The solution sometimes has issues with long transactions and replication delays. Its pricing needs improvement."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"The product is not easy to use."
"Oracle GoldenGate could improve the price."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is inexpensive and economical."
"We do like the price of this solution."
"The price is high. Consequently, when clients or customers acquire the solution, they tend to utilize it to its maximum extent due to this factor."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"The tool is a bit expensive."
"The one feature that I think Oracle could perhaps consider is, at the moment, the Veridata option is an extra cost. Golden Gate is an expensive product. You pay a lot for the best. But not including the Veridata license to prove that everything is working correctly... The big improvement for me would be to have that license built in. That would take it to the next level. That would make it a much better product. You may want to look at buying term licenses if you've just got a single migration to do. In that situation, you might want a term license for perhaps a year to save a lot of money, rather than buying a perpetual license."
"Licensing for Oracle GoldenGate is paid yearly."
"Oracle GoldenGate's license can be expensive compared to other solutions like Qlik Replicate or SAP Replicate."
"The solution would be costly for a small organization."
