Eliminates replication and allows you to use only one database, speeding up performance and reducing amount of storage
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. As a company, you're either hiring or paying an outsourcer to do that, and you have to manage it, keep up with the updates to the hardware, software, and the operating system. It's very expensive because there's a lot to control and take care of.

The best thing that we've seen coming out of Stitch is the Talend and Qlik relationship becoming more of a single entity rather than two entities. A couple of years ago there was a distinction between Stitch and Qlik. The biggest challenge when we were dealing with both was that we felt like we were dealing with two different companies. They are quickly merging the two different entities into a single one, and by around the end of this year, they're planning to basically consolidate everything. Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together. It's not quite exactly one solution. That's probably the biggest negative at the moment. Each month we're seeing improvements in the cloud platform, and they're coming out with capabilities that we haven't even thought about that are going to make our lives easier. Probably the biggest negative they have is they're doing so much good stuff, but we don't know about it. It just appears and then we figure it out ourselves, but the communication of changes could be improved. However, the positives are that they're changing so much at the moment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."
"Currently, there is a Hadoop-based infrastructure with several engineers to maintain the data, and now, using SAP Replication Server, it has become automatic and requires fewer people to put data in the data warehouse."
"We use this solution for all kinds of communications like RFC, BAPI, IDoc, connecting with the orders, accounts, finance, data stuff, banking, everything."
"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."
"The most valuable thing about this product is that it replicates data between SAP databases (ASE to IQ) very successfully."
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."
"This product has a catalog with the location of all the objects which were replicated, and it's very simple to maintain."
"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."
"Stitch has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to create MVPs quickly."
"We've got a project at the moment that we estimated the integration was going to be around $200,000 to $300,000, and we've been able to achieve the integration for less than a tenth of that, doing it in-house using Stitch."
"Stitch helps immensely because in just a day, we are able to cover the work that would normally take two to three weeks worth of design work nonstop."
"Stitch saved a lot of time, gave more options, and made it very quick and easy to build a UI."
"The best features Stitch offers are that I can copy the designs directly to Figma, which has helped my team and me tremendously because in the beginning we had to design the application from scratch, but now we can get inspirations from Stitch and copy directly from Stitch to shorten our time."
"The setup process for Stitch was pretty easy, with a plug and play approach where the data is immediately available."
"Stitch has helped my organization achieve better data management, making it easier, as it helps my team access data faster and reduces errors."
"Easy setup and easy change management are the best features Stitch offers, along with a good admin panel."
 

Cons

"It's a very expensive solution."
"It's complex. It's necessary to understand a little about infrastructure, like network LAN and VLAN environment."
"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."
"Setup was a little complex."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
"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."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transactional processes."
"My experience with customer support for Stitch has been very bad."
"The conversion to Figma is not effective."
"Stitch should definitely provide more extractors than it does now and provide the ability for teams to integrate their own extractors."
"The customer support of Stitch is horrible."
"I would advise that you should not use Stitch if you are going to build a big number of screens or a heavy UI application with complex designs because it is not ready for that kind of work."
"Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together."
"Stitch can be improved by being able to connect the design system to it, and being able to design any components from that design system would be the best improvement."
"The designs that Stitch produces sometimes cannot really be used for final launch, but I understand Stitch was designed just for rapid prototyping and for teams to get from the point where they just have an idea to having an actual product."
 

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."
