We performed a comparison between Oracle GoldenGate and SAP Data Services 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."For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"Data migration is the most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate."
"What I like most about Oracle GoldenGate is that it supports cross-platform migrations. For example, Oracle GoldenGate could pump data from one type of system to another such as the data from Oracle DB to SQL Db2."
"The solution is useful for data transformation."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."
"The solution's existing SaaS platform for data integration gives us an edge."
"You can put data together from a few databases into one database or the other way, from one database into several. It transforms data in real-time."
"What I have found the most valuable about GoldenGate is that it does real-time and no-downtime migrations. Its migrations are fast. There are not many tools like it on the marketplace."
"The most valuable feature is the ETL functionality."
"The maintenance of data services is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable. It is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools. It has very good integration with SAP, but it also has the capabilities to connect to other systems. We find it very helpful and stable."
"The reporting on the data, even from third-party software, is very good."
"The basic functionality is quite good as is the basic logic and data information."
"I have worked with Data Services for a long time, and currently, I find the dashboarding and reporting part to be the most valuable function."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities."
"In some cases, expectations were not met, especially when specific tables were expected to be disabled, and changes were anticipated in the target environment. We had to take backups from the source and refresh the address to address this."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"It would be great if Oracle added some enhanced features or more functionalities to Oracle GoldenGate."
"It would be better for Oracle Golden Gate Studio GUI to include other licensed products (i.e. Veridata or others)."
"Monitoring must be a bit more enhanced."
"I find the user interface to be difficult for non-technical people."
"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 should be some kind of enhancement that can be done on the admin side of certain sites where we can assign the roles and responsibilities. We should be able to control who is using the tool and how."
"The skillset of data engineers matters a bit to use all the functionality of this solution. Otherwise, the delivery speed won't be faster."
"The solution should offer more machine learning and automation."
"The description of error messages isn't extensive, although they point to the problem. With other solutions, like Talend, I was able to use the debugger to get directly to the problem, but with SAP Data Services the debugger is not working. I'm not sure if it's a problem with the version specifically, but I'm using it in an enterprise environment and I can't do an upgrade."
"The migration of the solution between different environments is quite complex."
"An area for improvement in SAP Data Services could involve making the product more accessible to non-technical end-users."
"Scheduling of jobs in the sequence is not available. It's a very tedious process to do that particular task. If there was a tool to schedule in the sequence that would be extremely helpful."
"With SAP Data Services, the problem arises when I try to connect to Azure Databricks."
