Good at handling replication, provides cross-database replication but SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies
SAP can provide better support for cross-database replication to newer technologies. The product supports Oracle, but I am not aware of what other technologies it supports. 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.

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

"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."
"This product has a catalog with the location of all the objects which were replicated, and it's very simple to maintain."
"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."
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."
"It's pretty good at handling replication, even under high load. It also provides cross-database replication, for example, from Sybase to Oracle."
"The most valuable thing about this product is that it replicates data between SAP databases (ASE to IQ) very successfully."
"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."
"We use this solution for all kinds of communications like RFC, BAPI, IDoc, connecting with the orders, accounts, finance, data stuff, banking, everything."
"Easy setup and easy change management are the best features Stitch offers, along with a good admin panel."
"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."
"Previously it took me about a month to a month and a half to have a prototype of roughly five to ten screens, now I can do it in about two to three days."
"Even though you are paying a huge amount, the quality and the time it takes to process big data is definitely lesser."
"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."
"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."
"After setting up Stitch, that pipeline maintenance dropped down to practically zero, cutting our data integration and engineering workload by at least eighty to ninety percent and allowing us to get data into our dashboards in real time instead of waiting days for manual updates."
 

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."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
"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."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transactional processes."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"My experience with customer support for Stitch has been very bad."
"The inspiration aspect for creating new screens could also have new versions, because the ones it creates look very generic."
"To be frank enough, I will say right now that since we are not using it, they are too expensive."
"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."
"Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together."
"The customer support of Stitch is horrible."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It's a very expensive solution."

Regarding Stitch's AI capabilities, the governance and security side feels pretty tight. When you are feeding data through AI-driven pipelines, you worry about a lot of things. But Stitch handles d...
