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."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."
"The main valuable feature is its real-time change data capture (CDC) capabilities, which process data with minimal latency. There is not much delay. It also performs well with batch-wise data applications."
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate."
"A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"It enables us to transform data at the latest stage rather than in ETL loads, so it's more ELT which is one of the advantages. It is also in near real-time, which brings significant advantage for our embedded analytics approach."
"A valuable feature of Qlik Replicate is that you do not need ETL. It's easy to use—you choose two systems and it automatically replicates them. Even if there is no CDC available, if you insert it and update it, and there is nothing to find out, then you can use Qlik Replicate. It's a good product."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"The product's most valuable features are data validation and rules."
"Technical support from SAP is awesome. If we have an issue, they give a good solution."
"The logic is also simple. It makes it easy to build your extraction."
"The reporting on the data, even from third-party software, is very good."
"We can extract data at a table level, extract data at the ETL level, and we can extract data at an ODP level."
"The solution offers very good integration capabilities."
"The maintenance of data services is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features of SAP Data Services lie in its ability to effectively observe and interpret the information within data related to people or facts, stands out."
"This product could be improved by providing more insight regarding errors. One of our customers that uses Qlik Replicate has had an issue. We tried to debug it, but we could not trace the error message. The infrastructure site should give us more insight about errors. Qlik Replicate is not a business solution, it's an IT solution. The reporting tools and bug site should be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."
"It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved."
"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 the future, Data Services should offer a cloud version."
"Newer feature integration is lagging behind the company acquisitions and the product could do more to service a broader range of devices."
"It would be nice if this solution was a bit easier to move from development to production."
"The migration of the solution between different environments is quite complex."
"They could make it easier to work with web services."
"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 initial setup is complex."
"The interface is not quite user-friendly and is in need of improvement."
