A solution that offers excellent replication and easy implementation
We primarily use the solution for backup replication The most valuable feature is data replication. Everything about the solution is very simple, which makes it easy to use. The solution could use better dashboards for new users. They can look complicated until you get used to using the…

Good at handling replication, provides cross-database replication but SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies
SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies. The product supports Oracle, but I am not aware of what other technologies it supports. If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Complete/custom machine real-time replication process (including apply and verification of destination)."
"By implementing remote journals, we have put the load on the target system as opposed to the source."
"From the simplest to the most complex environments, and with millions of transactions, MIMIX can adapt to any environment."
"Apart from the fact that we are assured high availability and disaster recovery, we use this product for different purposes as well."
"We were able to perform major system maintenance on our production system after performing a switch or production role swap."
"It allowed us to have a stable, low maintenance, worry free disaster recovery solution that we can present to our management and our clients."
"No system downtime High Availability (HA)."
"It's used in our new architecture, for production, HA/DR and it works with different data groups."
"Currently, there is a Hadoop-based infrastructure with several engineers to maintain the data, and now, using SAP Replication Server, it has become automatic and requires fewer people to put data in the data warehouse."
"The most valuable thing about this product is that it replicates data between SAP databases (ASE to IQ) very successfully."
"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."
"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."
"We use this solution for all kinds of communications like RFC, BAPI, IDoc, connecting with the orders, accounts, finance, data stuff, banking, everything."
"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."
"This product has a catalog with the location of all the objects which were replicated, and it's very simple to maintain."
"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."
 

Cons

"OS version compatibility needs work."
"Monitoring tools can be improved but are very useful already."
"I think that there should be a converged effort with IBM for faster remote journal entry reads when the remote journal is in "fire mode"."
"The version we're using is not portal ready."
"Could make it easier to fix object errors."
"The solution could use better dashboards for new users. They can look complicated until you get used to using the solution."
"Switch procedures are not as easy and straightforward as it may seem at first glance."
"Installation is pretty easy but it can be fairly complicated to setup and configure."
"The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."
"It's a very expensive solution."
"If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."
"It's complex. It's necessary to understand a little about infrastructure, like network LAN and VLAN environment."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transactional processes."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It's a very expensive solution."
"You can pick one of the hosted cloud services as opposed to owning it and doing it yourself. Your cost of ownership on the hardware, the data storage, and the maintenance all go down. It depends on what service you use."
