We performed a comparison between IBM InfoSphere Information Server and Qlik Replicate based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This solution is extremely flexible and scalable."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"IBM InfoSphere Information Server is stable."
"The integration with different technologies is the most valuable feature."
"Low-priced reporting and analytics solution, with good scalability and stability. It has on-premises and cloud versions that are cohesive and can integrate well."
"It's very user-friendly when it comes to settings and configuration. It also offers very detailed logging about warnings and errors."
"The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"Qlik Replicate stands out with its cutting-edge technology and its ability to handle diverse data management tasks. This powerful tool allows us to efficiently and swiftly load data into various data stores or destinations, while also enabling easy distribution across different endpoints. A notable feature is its capability to reload data from multiple sources by creating multiple tasks within a brief timeframe of fifteen to twenty minutes. This eliminates the need for manual intervention and ensures quick data loading from different tables."
"Support has been great."
"A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"Their technical support needs improvement."
"This solution would benefit from the engine being made more lightweight."
"IBM InfoSphere Information Server should be more scalable. It should have the option to change the configuration to run on a single, non-multiple node, or multi-threading processing."
"There are certain shortcomings in the cloud side of the solution, where improvements are required."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"When you remote into it the Qlik Replicate UI a lot of times it just freezes. We set up the EC2, to allow them to go to the server and click on the Replicate icon, it just opens up and just sits there. At that point, we have to go into the EC2 and then reboot the server. This should be fixed, it is frustrating."
"In various scenarios, an important consideration is when we encounter issues and Qlik Replicate suggests reloading a specific table. If we face any problems or encounter errors with that table, it becomes necessary to make a change in Qlik Replicate. Performing a full reload every time is not feasible or practical. Instead, we should identify the specific issues and address them without repeating the entire reloading process. Based on this approach, we can investigate and resolve the problem by performing targeted loads from the source itself. This change aligns with my perspective and is something I would like to implement."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
