Lead Database Administrator at a insurance company with 201-500 employees

Integrating external keys seamlessly while has transaction constraints

I find DataLoader's ability to easily integrate with external keys valuable, which is a bit more challenging with DBM. It provides automation for scheduling data loads, and we use the server's functionality for this. Additionally, DataLoader is cost-effective since it is free. As long as I have stable network access, uploading and downloading data is straightforward.

BI Analyst DW Architect at a mining and metals company with 10,001+ employees

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

"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."

"Documentation has excellent potential as it provides the capability to generate data lineage and a complete set of rich documentation and output in multiple formats."

"During the POC myself and one WS resource were able to deliver a project in 3 days that had been in development by other resources for 6 months and still hadn't been delivered."

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

"ROI has been huge; we have a very large healthcare data warehouse and the amount of ETL code we have produced and continue to maintain would not be possible without a tool as cost effective as RED."

"Embedding of standards and design patterns into the tool yields substantial quality and consistency gains."

"I would not hesitate to say that if someone has really limited time for a project it can make a difference and you can have the data ready for use in a very short period of time."

"The product takes on much of the painful, time-consuming, manual and repetitive tasks, allowing you to focus on meeting business requirements."

"We are now 2.5 years into using WhereScape and all warehouse code we have converted from our old tool to WhereScape has performed faster; anywhere from 20-80% reduction in processing time."

More WhereScape RED pros

Cons

"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."

"DataLoader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions."

"We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records."

"Customization could be better."

"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."

"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 ."

"The only other thing I would note is that the IDE isn’t as intuitive as I would like."

"Technical support isn't the best."

More WhereScape RED cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is inexpensive and economical."

"ROI is at least 10 times."

"Our company purchased a corporate unlimited license."

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

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