Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the metadata generated code."
"It has a built-in automatic scheduling environment."
"RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."
"WhereScape is really helpful in terms of architecture data. Everything is one of automation. Two people can do thousands of tables in one day or two. It saves a lot of time."
"I found the initial setup very easy."
"Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."
"Their support staff are very knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. I feel their support staff go above and beyond to assure their customers are satisfied."
"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."
"We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature."
"The solution is a SaaS and does not require a complex setup."
"Zapier’s most valuable feature is its ability to interconnect applications or devices."
"There are a few valuable features, like the stability that it comes with and also the number of features that it offers. I've used other services like Pabbly, but they don't offer similar numbers of applications that Zapier has or allows to integrate with – it's maximum."
"With the previous CRM we were using – the Google Ads landing pages we had – we were collecting leads manually. That process was not efficient and took a sales team a lot of time to insert these leads manually. Currently, the process is smooth and we use Zapier to collect the leads for us."
"Zapier is a really good tool for connecting multiple different platforms and data sources. For example, with Quickbase, I can easily integrate data from other sources like AWS or task-tracking platforms such as ClickUp or Asana."
"The connection between Facebook lead forms and MailChimp integrations is the most valuable feature."
"The product's most valuable feature is automation."
"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."
"The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application."
"No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded ."
"The ability to execute SSIS projects within WhereScape would be nice because we have a lot of packages that are too cumbersome to recreate."
"Technical support isn't the best."
"They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box."
"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."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"The pricing of the solution is quite expensive."
"My biggest concern with Zapier would be their pricing strategy."
"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors."
"At the moment, they allow a limited number of apps. I look forward to getting more apps for each package."
"The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments."
"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."
"I think that this solution should have more apps connected to it."
"Some recent changes to the solution have made it bulky and not as intuitive to use as it previously was."
