It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box.""No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded .""Customization could be better.""It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully.""The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it.""Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved.""Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."
