We performed a comparison between Qlik Replicate and Workato 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."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."
"A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"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."
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"Low-priced reporting and analytics solution, with good scalability and stability. It has on-premises and cloud versions that are cohesive and can integrate well."
"It's very user-friendly when it comes to settings and configuration. It also offers very detailed logging about warnings and errors."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Their automation and workflows are very strong, and you can build the workflows very easily and quickly."
"Workato is low code, intuitive, and easy to use."
"It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient."
"The most valuable features are easy integration, quick tab to develop, quick tab to market, and interactive integration platform."
"It is easier to use than other technical open-source technologies."
"It is very easy to use. It takes complex workloads away, and it provides very smooth integration. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box connectors. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box APIs, which makes it really easy to integrate with applications for different use cases, whether it is in finance, HR, or customer operations. It is by far our favorite integration product."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious."
"In various scenarios, an important consideration is when we encounter issues and Qlik Replicate suggests reloading a specific table. If we face any problems or encounter errors with that table, it becomes necessary to make a change in Qlik Replicate. Performing a full reload every time is not feasible or practical. Instead, we should identify the specific issues and address them without repeating the entire reloading process. Based on this approach, we can investigate and resolve the problem by performing targeted loads from the source itself. This change aligns with my perspective and is something I would like to implement."
"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."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"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 next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"The only minor drawback would be if there was a UI at the front of it, for apps and for a portal as well, it would make it really easy. It would be really useful if there were more apps capabilities."
"It is tedious to make a tailor-fit function."
"A limitation is that their cloud presence is only in North America and Europe."
"I would like to see the dashboarding and reporting processes improved."
"From the deployment point of view, our customers encounter platform downtime where it does not serve the actual request on the systems."
"Workato's Extract, transform, and load (ETL) and extract, load, and transform (ELT) are not very strong and could be improved for very complex transformations."
"The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
