Qlik Replicate Room for Improvement

David Piech - PeerSpot reviewer

Qlik Replicate is a little fuzzy sometimes as to how it's priced. It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious.

In various scenarios, an important consideration is when we encounter issues and Qlik Replicate suggests reloading a specific table. If we face any problems or encounter errors with that table, it becomes necessary to make a change in Qlik Replicate. Performing a full reload every time is not feasible or practical. Instead, we should identify the specific issues and address them without repeating the entire reloading process. Based on this approach, we can investigate and resolve the problem by performing targeted loads from the source itself. This change aligns with my perspective and is something I would like to implement.

There is room for improvement in the UI. The UI and data version control can be improved.

As Qlik Sense is filling all the use cases that we need it to do, the only area for improvement I could think of for this product is for them to provide better support.

We'd also like to see more automations and more integrations with third-party solutions and tools in the next version of this product.

Qlik Replicate's pricing could be improved. The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs.

An issue we have is that it's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics. It would be helpful if they could solve that. When it comes to metadata, the business name of the fields could be improved to have a catalog very close to the user to link the technical names to the business name.

They can do a better job in the performance. They don't do much compression on the data migration. That's the one thing they need to fix. We'd like better connectivity.

Initial migrations are taking up too much time. They can improve on replicating to multiple targets.

When you remote into it the Qlik Replicate UI a lot of times it just freezes. We set up the EC2, to allow them to go to the server and click on the Replicate icon, it just opens up and just sits there. At that point, we have to go into the EC2 and then reboot the server. This should be fixed, it is frustrating.

When we do receive errors when the solution suddenly fails it will give a message of  "Error." You have to go and figure out which setting you have to tweak to get the actual error. This could be improved by being more descriptive or more intuitive. They have eight different options of things the error would say, such as enhance logging, but you don't really know what that means. The wording doesn't tell you if it fails. It makes it difficult when trying to find the actual problem.

In a feature release, they could improve the solution by making it easier to use two different destinations. If we want to do have on-premise and in the cloud, it seemed difficult when I was attempting the process. It would be useful to just have one source and then two different destinations, using the same transformations and other configurations.

We have technical people who work with it. I do not have a lot of feedback to provide at this stage. We want to implement a data lake but that's at the second stage to be integrated with the other tools that we use, which are Qlik. Since we use Qlik, we intend to leverage Attunity's capabilities because Attunity is now part of the portfolio.

Qlik can be made more user-friendly.

Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement.

This product could be improved by providing more insight regarding errors. One of our customers that uses Qlik Replicate has had an issue. We tried to debug it, but we could not trace the error message. The infrastructure site should give us more insight about errors. Qlik Replicate is not a business solution, it's an IT solution. The reporting tools and bug site should be improved.
