Imran  Rafi - PeerSpot reviewer
Foolproof stability and robust system
SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience. One of its notable features is real-time replication, which ensures that data changes are replicated immediately. This is particularly advantageous when we need to execute full processes promptly.
Radovan Bacovic - PeerSpot reviewer
Fire-and-forget solution with a great infrastructure
Generally speaking, support is a pain point. In the next release, I would love to see a change in support from the current chat to a more comprehensive portal. I would also like to see more exotic connectors. Stitch is based on a single framework, which means you can build your own tab. That is not a problem and I have done it in the past for some use cases with open-source tools and it was great, but it would still be nice to have a shortcut. With more exotic connectors, we could put in minimal effort into introducing new integrations, which would enable us to quickly gather more customers in the long run. You need at least one week to do the integration. What Stitch can do is open the framework for how we can build or contribute to new integrators. They could even make it open-source.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."
"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."
"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."
"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."
"The most valuable feature of Stitch for us is ease of use. This solution is fire-and-forget. All an organization has to do is set up the connection or integration and move on."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
"The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."
"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."
"If someone wants to replicate their data from Sybase to a newer technology for data warehousing or other purposes, it would be better if they supported those."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
"Generally speaking, support is a pain point. In the next release, I would love to see a change in support from the current chat to a more comprehensive portal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a very expensive solution."
"You can pick one of the hosted cloud services as opposed to owning it and doing it yourself. Your cost of ownership on the hardware, the data storage, and the maintenance all go down. It depends on what service you use."
