"It allows us to migrate from one system to another, from one server to another, with no downtime, no outage. We can get the data synchronized with multiple databases and then switch the connectivity across to the new servers."
"This is a powerful solution provided by one of the most respected companies in the computer industry."
"They've recently improved the ease of implementation."
"GoldenGate enables us to merge and transform data from various sources in real time. It's a powerful tool that can read and load most data sources."
"For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"Many of the features of Oracle GoldenGate are valuable. We use Oracle databases and this tool is from Oracle, making it have superior compatibility."
"The solution is useful for data transformation."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."
"A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate."
"The main valuable feature is its real-time change data capture (CDC) capabilities, which process data with minimal latency. There is not much delay. It also performs well with batch-wise data applications."
"Low-priced reporting and analytics solution, with good scalability and stability. It has on-premises and cloud versions that are cohesive and can integrate well."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"Qlik Replicate stands out with its cutting-edge technology and its ability to handle diverse data management tasks. This powerful tool allows us to efficiently and swiftly load data into various data stores or destinations, while also enabling easy distribution across different endpoints. A notable feature is its capability to reload data from multiple sources by creating multiple tasks within a brief timeframe of fifteen to twenty minutes. This eliminates the need for manual intervention and ensures quick data loading from different tables."
"A valuable feature of Qlik Replicate is that you do not need ETL. It's easy to use—you choose two systems and it automatically replicates them. Even if there is no CDC available, if you insert it and update it, and there is nothing to find out, then you can use Qlik Replicate. It's a good product."
"The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"The problem with GoldenGate is it is very complex to use. You need heavyweight skills to use it."
"Oracle GoldenGate could improve the price."
"Oracle GoldenGate's installation is not user-friendly, we had to read a lot of documentation for the setup and configuration."
"The solution, in general, should be easier to use, with less need to perform workarounds within the system."
"What needs improvement in Oracle GoldenGate is the support. Another feature that needs to be improved in the solution is its GUI. It would be useful for programmers or users to be able to work from the GUI, not just from the command line. Simplifying how Oracle GoldenGate is used would also make the solution better."
"Additional performance metrics should be added and visible in a dashboard, displayed in a detailed manner."
"Regarding improvements, the focus should be on addressing data quality issues and minimizing delays, particularly in Oracle databases. The technical support should be improved as well. Additionally, in terms of features, it would be great if the solution could support APIs. The support is not friendly. They don’t respond on time."
"The solution's performance needs improvement."
"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."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"It's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics."
"Some features can also be overly dependent on each other. So, there is room for improvement."
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
