Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
6.4
Stitch boosts efficiency by saving time and costs, enhancing focus on data analysis despite mixed financial ROI reports.
Sentiment score
7.9
Striim enhances efficiency by reducing data sync time and incidents, saving organizations significant time and operational costs.
That cut down our pipeline maintenance and integration overhead by eighty to ninety percent, freeing us up to focus entirely on actual data analysis and building user-facing features.
Developer at a educational organization with 51-200 employees
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.
UX Designer at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees
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.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
The incidents have disappeared completely since I have been using Striim.
Cloud architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Striim's continuous pipeline safely processes millions of daily transactions without data loss; my organization had millions of transactions every day and even in real-time, so it was quite good.
Mainframe lead at Infosys
Since it is now one to two hours, I would say it has saved employee hours and time.
Data Engineer
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
4.1
Stitch's customer service feedback is mixed, praised for effectiveness by some, criticized by others, with many users self-sufficient.
Sentiment score
6.8
Striim's customer service is praised for prompt, expert assistance, particularly in z/OS architecture and DB2 logs troubleshooting.
The best skill set they've got is that they know when the issue is outside of their knowledge, and they escalate really quickly so that we get to the right people when we need them.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
The platform actually has a very clear interface and a very good user experience.
UX Designer at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees
They are all knowledgeable about what they do.
Data Engineer
When you contact them, they give you a response straight away and help you identify the issue and fix it.
Technology Specialist Database at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
The customer support has been excellent, and their engineers actually understand z/OS architecture and DB2 logs.
Mainframe lead at Infosys
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
5.2
Stitch is scalable and user-friendly, but concerns exist about complexity and third-party connections for heavy applications and UI.
Sentiment score
7.8
Striim performs well with moderate data volumes, is adaptable, and recommended for hybrid clouds, but enterprise-level scalability is untested.
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.
Software Engineer trainee at Lng-consultancy
We just spin up a new server and add it into a cluster, and then it pretty much manages the load balancing across all the servers in the cluster.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
If you are using the cloud version, then definitely it is scalable for sure.
Senior Manager at pibythree
Our licensing was based on the number of cores, so even if we have a high number of events on any given day, our license cost would not go high.
Data Engineer
I would describe the scalability of Striim as very good, as it adapts well.
Cloud architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Striim can handle the data volumes effectively, but it can struggle a little bit if the data volume is too high.
Technology Specialist Database at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.1
Stitch is highly stable and reliable, with rare issues and minimal disruptions noted by users over the past year.
Sentiment score
7.9
Users generally find Striim stable with occasional slowdowns and initial synchronization issues, but no major crashes or reliability problems.
Stitch is really stable.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
I have not run into any major platform downtime or critical bugs that disrupted our data flow.
Developer at a educational organization with 51-200 employees
I didn't notice any explicit crashes or bugs with Stitch, as it is actually stable.
Software Engineer trainee at Lng-consultancy
That problem has been completely resolved with Striim.
Cloud architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Striim was very stable.
Data Engineer
In my experience, Striim is mostly stable.
Mainframe lead at Infosys
 

Room For Improvement

Stitch users seek improved support, customization, integration, error handling, design features, pricing, and AI capabilities for better usability.
Striim needs better performance, especially in batch processing, documentation, user setup, and pricing to satisfy users' needs.
Stitch cannot connect to all databases or third-party apps, such as Amazon Seller.
head of data at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
I saved a lot of time getting from having no design inspiration to having full-fledged designs.
Product Designer at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
I suggest developing a featured interface that is easier to use.
software developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
I believe if Striim could use some part of AWS secrets or its own secret mechanism to store the password, that would really save a lot of time so that I don't have to keep updating the password whenever there is any change.
Data Engineer
They could improve the documentation by showing how to configure with different platforms.
Technology Specialist Database at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
I think Striim could be improved with better pricing and enhanced documentation.
Cloud architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

Stitch is cost-effective for small teams but seen as pricey with large data, complicated by Talend merger licensing.
Enterprise users find Striim's pricing based on cores and CPU usage costly, but fair for private cloud setups.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is pretty easy, pretty straightforward, and the cheapest of them all.
head of data at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
The cost of the seats is actually cheaper by the amount of value that you're adding to the business.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
If you are using any ETL tool, they are too expensive.
Senior Manager at pibythree
Licensing was a bit more expensive because Striim has to read from Oracle GoldenGate trail files and also integrate them.
Technology Specialist Database at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
My experience with the pricing, implementation cost, and licensing of Striim is that it is somewhat expensive.
Cloud architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
It's very fair.
Data Engineer
 

Valuable Features

Stitch streamlines data management with automation, vast integrations, real-time alerts, and intuitive tools enhancing workflows and decision-making.
Striim enhances business analytics with real-time data streaming, ease of use, and efficient synchronization, reducing load and overhead.
The image to HTML conversion helps me in my projects because it allows you to acquire professional designs without starting from scratch.
software developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
We take one week of time to design an application, but now we can design that application within two days, which is 16 hours.
UX lead at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
We can easily move and do time-to-market for a new pipeline and new integration, positively impacting our organization.
Staff Data Engineer at GitLab
Striim is capable of absorbing a large number of transactions, and the difference between the two databases is always less than a second, which demonstrates efficiency.
Cloud architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
There were significant improvements because once we enabled change data capture, the database was not going down at all.
Data Engineer
It reduces manual intervention because it automatically syncs the data from the warehouse.
Technology Specialist Database at a retailer with 10,001+ employees

Featured Reviews

Jason Hale - PeerSpot reviewer
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
Data team has transformed diverse environmental streams and now delivers real-time insights
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.

Real-time data capture has accelerated releases and now improves trust in our data warehouse
The checkpoints would help me to figure out where the problem was if there's any lag, but I had to do a lot of manual work to figure out where the lag is. Striim would not intuitively tell me the culprit table or database behind the lag. I believe that is an improvement Striim could definitely do. Passwords were an issue. Property variables were not supported for passwords, meaning I had to make sure the password is manually populated. I believe if Striim could read from AWS secrets or its own secret mechanism to store the password, that would really save a lot of time so that I don't have to keep updating the password whenever there is any change. The user experience of triggering alerts if there's any lag which Striim identified, which is outside normal processing time, could intrinsically be done by Striim. I believe that was lacking. I would wait for Striim to tell me, instead of me going and validating whether Striim is lagging behind. If Striim could itself tell me that it's seeing a lot more volume than expected, that would really make me give it a higher number.
