Replication monitor feature is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication
We appreciate the ease of use in this solution. It looks like File Explorer, where you set up your source and targets. Replications are created simply by using the replication wizard. It also has functionality for scheduling, verification, and alerts. The ability to write code for transformations is very useful. Once the replications are set up it is simple to maintain. The Replication monitor is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication. Replication logs and history files are very useful for determining problematic data issues. The transaction latency tool is also helpful for determining how many connections are required for larger files. The replication types that are available are: Refresh Only, Continuous, and Synchronization. We currently use Refresh Only (scheduled refreshes), and Continuous. The source and target table verification is very helpful for running checks. The Replication Monitor is also a great plus, which shows a quick view of the replication status.

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

"The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"It's very simple to configure, it's very simple to implement. In addition, the ability it has to capture data and transmit it with incredible speed is better than any of the product out there. It's extremely powerful."
"It is quite scalable."
"Ease of installation, maintenance and powerful outputs and supporting Big Data and Cloud environment as well as OGGCS (Oracle Golden Gate Cloud Service)."
"It scales well. You can either have it working in with the databases, or you can move it outside. It's got the ability to parallelize up, so you can certainly extract and replay the data from your databases in parallel. So it does have horizontal scalability. That is probably one of its stronger features, the ability just to automatically parallelize the replay and playing of data to allow to scale to large volumes."
"Oracle GoldenGate is beneficial for data replication and ensures secure data transport."
"One feature that stands out for me is the data center capability."
"When we are replicating data between similar databases then it is straightforward."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
 

Cons

"This product would be improved with additional built-in functions for simpler date conversion, as well as for data type transformations."
"Pricing is an area that needs improvement."
"It would be great if Oracle added some enhanced features or more functionalities to Oracle GoldenGate."
"The solution, in general, should be easier to use, with less need to perform workarounds within the system."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"There is room for improvement in Oracle GoldenGate's pricing, which is a bit high."
"The solution sometimes has issues with long transactions and replication delays. Its pricing needs improvement."
"It would be better for Oracle Golden Gate Studio GUI to include other licensed products (i.e. Veridata or others)."
"Troubleshooting issues is not always the easiest. It should be easier to troubleshoot. Their support can also be improved. They don't read your problem statement and waste a lot of time. GoldenGate for big data is actually a separate license. It is sort of a separate product, but it might fall underneath your GoldenGate category. If we're talking about big data, its interaction with big data sources is poorly documented."
"I find the user interface to be difficult for non-technical people."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers pay a license fee yearly."
"I found the price to be quite reasonable."
"We have purchased corporate licensing to use Oracle GoldenGate."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee for Oracle GoldenGate, which is very expensive."
"Oracle GoldenGate is a high-priced solution because it follows the core-based pricing model versus the software-based pricing model of other solutions."
"We do like the price of this solution."
"Oracle GoldenGate's license can be expensive compared to other solutions like Qlik Replicate or SAP Replicate."
"The price of this solution is good."
"Oracle GoldenGate's cost is high."
"It is an expensive product."
