Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."The solution's existing SaaS platform for data integration gives us an edge."
"This solution provides us with real-time replication and it does not affect the performance of other operations, which is very important to us."
"The replication of the data table is one of the best features."
"We use the tool to pull on-prem data."
"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."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
"It moves the data as you set it up, and it works. I am also very impressed with its stability and scalability. It is not super feature-rich, but the new releases have more functionality. It recently had more native integrations with Oracle Database. If you are using it against an Oracle database, it has a lot more functionality."
"CDC is the most valuable feature."
"Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions."
"I like the data vault implementations."
"Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."
"WhereScape's deployment package is a fantastic feature. The application allows for selecting specific objects that you would like to deploy from one environment to another rather than deploying the entire database."
"This is a fantastically robust DW tool that will make you at least 10 times faster in producing a DW."
"Their support staff are very knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. I feel their support staff go above and beyond to assure their customers are satisfied."
"The tool supports multiple target update methods."
"It has a built-in automatic scheduling environment."
"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."
"Oracle GoldenGate's installation is not user-friendly, we had to read a lot of documentation for the setup and configuration."
"Lacks the ability to become a full-scale ETL tool."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"The solution's licensing price is very expensive and could be made more competitive."
"What needs improvement in Oracle GoldenGate is the support. Another feature that needs to be improved in the solution is its GUI. It would be useful for programmers or users to be able to work from the GUI, not just from the command line. Simplifying how Oracle GoldenGate is used would also make the solution better."
"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"Monitoring must be a bit more enhanced."
"Customization could be better."
"The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."
"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."
"Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment."
"The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application."
"They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box."
