Featured Reviews

Emmanuel Catalano - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers reliable data management and simple to use but requires more intuitive configuration
I am not very happy with Oracle Support. Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests. A lot of the time, the support asks the same questions repeatedly, which takes time. Usually, I solve my issue myself before they give me solutions. It seems like they do not really understand my problem, even if I translate what I want to say from Italian with tools like Google Translate. Sometimes it is very difficult to communicate with them. We have some Oracle support staff in Italy whom I can reach directly, which helps, but there seems to be a problem with the support requests. It is also an issue when different Oracle representatives handle my request at different times and ask me to explain the problem again despite it being written in the support request. This makes it very frustrating. Additionally, issues arise with product understanding. For example, in dedicated infrastructure, the Oracle staff handling the support request may not be familiar with the product or suggest solutions suitable for other infrastructures but not mine. Oracle Support should know the solutions that fit my infrastructure since they manage it, not me.
Sachin Shrtivastava - PeerSpot reviewer
Automation of simple tasks improves with user-friendly interface but needs enhancement in handling complex scenarios
In my opinion, what could be improved in Zapier is its UI, which operates as a one-line system. Compared to Make.com and other tools that have a drag-and-drop system, this is lacking. If the scenario or automation is complex, it becomes difficult to create and deploy because of various routes. For example, with 20 routes, it becomes really difficult to create them due to certain limits, and the UI is not conducive for viewing all the routes.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."
"It provides a good response for external microservices applications."
"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"We are heavily involved with GitHub for managing repositories, automatic deployments, and inner source projects."
"Oracle Database generally guarantees a good response for customer use cases."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"This has significantly eased the process of migration from on-premise to cloud. Instead of configuring everything from the ground up, the Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service has made it seamless to build and render databases in cloud."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service is valued for its ability to replicate data in real-time, offering significant benefits from a data perspective."
"Zapier's interface, for me, is the solution's greatest value proposition. It is designed and developed for people who don't have a clue about what they're trying to do. It has a very user-friendly interface."
"Zapier's best feature would be the ease of use, and it is really easy to use and really user-friendly."
"I utilized Zapier's feature of connecting over 2000 apps for various automations in my business processes."
"I recommend Zapier because there is demand and it is easy to use."
"What's most valuable in Zapier is its simplicity, seamlessness, and smooth plug-in, so you won't need to build code for every action. I'm not a developer, but I can use Zapier."
"With the previous CRM we were using – the Google Ads landing pages we had – we were collecting leads manually. That process was not efficient and took a sales team a lot of time to insert these leads manually. Currently, the process is smooth and we use Zapier to collect the leads for us."
"There are a few valuable features, like the stability that it comes with and also the number of features that it offers. I've used other services like Pabbly, but they don't offer similar numbers of applications that Zapier has or allows to integrate with – it's maximum."
"Zapier is user friendly and makes it easy to integrate different tools. It has a drag and drop functionality which makes it easy to connect environments."
 

Cons

"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."
"Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests."
"I am not very happy with Oracle Support. Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests."
"Pricing is rather expensive. Oracle typically prices on the higher side, and there is scope for them to reconsider the price, especially since it is a cloud service."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
"Oracle is always adding new features. I can't think of anything that's urgent currently."
"Support could be improved. They lack knowledge."
"The pricing could be a little cheaper."
"If the scenario or automation is complex, it becomes difficult to create and deploy because of various routes. For example, with 20 routes, it becomes really difficult to create them due to certain limits, and the UI is not conducive for viewing all the routes."
"With Zapier, improvements are required in the areas of concerns like bugs, ease of use, and documentation."
"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."
"The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments."
"There is room for improvement in the support. They are not responsive, and they don't take much time to get resolved."
"At the moment, they allow a limited number of apps. I look forward to getting more apps for each package."
"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The price of Zapier is approximately $75 monthly."
"Zapier is a paid service. Its license renews monthly, and Zapier will downgrade your subscription to the free version when your credit card doesn't have funds. That significantly impacts your service because everything halts completely. Zapier doesn't have any hidden costs."
"It's very affordable."
"The least expensive plan is $24 a month, and you can go all the way to $800 a month if you're a huge company using many tasks."
"Zapier's price is good."
"There is a free plan that is, of course, limited. However, it allows you to understand and check true scenarios for a while."
"Per task, there is a monthly plan involving 15 euros...Also, in different forms, they just give you the ability to use different features. They charge 18.58 euros for the first standard plan, which includes 750 tasks. So, it is about 25 cents per task."
"Think your Zaps through to make sure you don't use more Zaps than you need."
