Executive Summary

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
5.7
Stitch helps users save time and money on projects, although some lack concrete financial ROI data.
Sentiment score
7.0
WhereScape RED offers varied returns, with some users experiencing quick ROI, efficient development, and substantial gains.
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.

Customer Service

Sentiment score
3.5
Stitch customer service is mixed; some praise responsiveness and issue escalation, while others experience unsatisfactory support.
Sentiment score
8.3
Customer service is often excellent and prompt, although some feel support wanes post-purchase and seems money-driven.
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.

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
5.0
Stitch is scalable and efficient for large data, but some users find it less suitable for complex projects.
Sentiment score
6.6
WhereScape RED efficiently scales with large data, improves ETL processing, and enhances speeds using ELT and SQL features.
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.

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.

Stitch can handle a massive amount of data, so I do not think that is a problem.

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.0
Stitch is praised for its strong stability and reliability, with users citing dependable performance and effective load balancing features.
Sentiment score
6.6

Stitch is really stable.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
I didn't notice any explicit crashes or bugs with Stitch, as it is actually stable.

Room For Improvement

Enhancing connectors, UI consistency, database connectivity, and simplifying processes are vital for improving communication and integration capabilities.
WhereScape RED suffers from scalability issues, lacking performance efficiency, enhanced documentation, better GUI, and improved support for multi-database environments.
Stitch cannot connect to all databases or third-party apps, such as Amazon Seller.

Setup Cost

Stitch's pricing is seen as fair with potential cost-effectiveness despite initial perceptions of needing multiple seats.
WhereScape RED's flexible developer-based licensing and native SQL code provide cost-effective, vendor-independent data warehousing solutions with quick ROI potential.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is pretty easy, pretty straightforward, and the cheapest of them all.

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
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Stitch shows that it is a bit costlier.

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.

Quick to set up, flexible, and stable
The scheduling part I don't like due to the fact that it allows you to schedule as a parent and child and other things, however, the error trackability has to be a little more user-friendly. It's also not user-friendly in the sense that it loads all the jobs and there are not enough filters so that it doesn't need to load everything. If the job fails, you don't get any type of alert or email. It would be ideal if there was some sort of automated alert message. Technical support isn't the best. It would be ideal if we understood how to do it in a card exception regarding exclusion, where the card is captured separately rather than filling the whole process on the data inbound side. Certain workloads like this are organized in such a way where you seem to be doubling the work as opposed to streamlining the process.
