Doug Isabelle - PeerSpot reviewer
Owner at Doc-IT
Good management and pricing but not great for enterprise environments
In a high-density location, we're running into connectivity drops. There may be too many rouge devices broadcasting, and the devices is getting interference from another channel. The only to fix this is to reboot and we need something that reboots on the fly. We also need better security for VLANs and VPNs. There are issues with certain Apple devices. Technical support is not very helpful. The initial setup, which seemed straightforward at first, had to be redone. This may not have been the fault of the product. We're not sure what went wrong.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy."
"It's easy to manage and supports the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem."
"WhereScape RED has improved our business's ability to generate needed reporting without requiring a large team of developers to manually code all of the necessary plumbing."
"Documentation has excellent potential as it provides the capability to generate data lineage and a complete set of rich documentation and output in multiple formats."
"I found the initial setup very easy."
"Quickly develops a data warehouse for our organization with documentation and can track back/forward features."
"WhereScape's deployment package is a fantastic feature. The application allows for selecting specific objects that you would like to deploy from one environment to another rather than deploying the entire database."
"It has allowed us to produce consistently created, well-documented, easy to maintain DW solutions for our clients."
"Support is absolutely excellent, efficient, and timely."
"Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."
 

Cons

"There are issues with certain Apple devices."
"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."
"Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment."
"I would love to see a GUI interface for defining dependencies between build processes."
"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."
"Customization could be better. When you need to modify or write some custom code, it can get a little messy."
"As with any product, there are things that can be improved, but most are fairly minor, including things like greater flexibility in ordering job tasks."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."
"I don't think the solution is very stable. Even though I like this tool numerous bugs made it difficult and unreliable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is no license. The solution is free."
"ROI is at least 10 times."
"Speed to market of a warehouse solution at a relatively inexpensive price point."
"Factor in the price of specialized consulting who know this product. They're hard to find and expensive."
"Our company purchased a corporate unlimited license."
