Replication monitor feature is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication
We appreciate the ease of use in this solution. It looks like File Explorer, where you set up your source and targets. Replications are created simply by using the replication wizard. It also has functionality for scheduling, verification, and alerts. The ability to write code for transformations is very useful. Once the replications are set up it is simple to maintain. The Replication monitor is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication. Replication logs and history files are very useful for determining problematic data issues. The transaction latency tool is also helpful for determining how many connections are required for larger files. The replication types that are available are: Refresh Only, Continuous, and Synchronization. We currently use Refresh Only (scheduled refreshes), and Continuous. The source and target table verification is very helpful for running checks. The Replication Monitor is also a great plus, which shows a quick view of the replication status.

Performs real-time replication without data loss, but we cannot do much automation
The setup with the classic GoldenGate architecture was easy. Oracle has now moved to Microservices Architecture. It is a real pain. There are a lot of new things we have to learn. I rate the ease of setup of the classic architecture a seven out of ten. For Microservices, I rate the ease of setup a three out of ten. The deployment takes a couple of hours. We need one system administrator to deploy the tool. We need to maintain the tool. We are a team of four people. We need at least three people for maintenance. The time taken for maintenance depends on how big the environment is. We spend a lot of time on maintenance because our environment is big.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is data replication capability."
"I like that the product transforms data and provides real-time applications."
"Oracle GoldenGate features work fine, which is what I like about it. I also like that it's scalable, easy to set up, and has good technical support."
"The most valuable features of Oracle GoldenGate are the schema application and performance."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It doesn't take too much time or effort to implement the solution."
"What I have found the most valuable about GoldenGate is that it does real-time and no-downtime migrations. Its migrations are fast. There are not many tools like it on the marketplace."
"With Oracle GoldenGate, you can easily sync the tables and put them into the ODS database."
"One feature that stands out for me is the data center capability."
 

Cons

"Pricing is an area that needs improvement."
"This product would be improved with additional built-in functions for simpler date conversion, as well as for data type transformations."
"Oracle GoldenGate's installation is not user-friendly, we had to read a lot of documentation for the setup and configuration."
"Some issues regarding stability need to be resolved."
"The process of transforming the data between two different databases is inefficient and needs to be improved."
"It would be great if Oracle added some enhanced features or more functionalities to Oracle GoldenGate."
"Additional performance metrics should be added and visible in a dashboard, displayed in a detailed manner."
"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"It is not a very stable tool, and you need to monitor it perfectly."
"Microservices Architecture is not user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I found the price to be quite reasonable."
"Customers pay a license fee yearly."
"We do like the price of this solution."
"The product is expensive."
"The one feature that I think Oracle could perhaps consider is, at the moment, the Veridata option is an extra cost. Golden Gate is an expensive product. You pay a lot for the best. But not including the Veridata license to prove that everything is working correctly... The big improvement for me would be to have that license built in. That would take it to the next level. That would make it a much better product. You may want to look at buying term licenses if you've just got a single migration to do. In that situation, you might want a term license for perhaps a year to save a lot of money, rather than buying a perpetual license."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"Pricing is based on anual licensing with additional costs for support packages."
"The tool needs to improve its pricing."
"The price of Oracle GoldenGate should be lowered. It is expensive compared to other solutions."
"We have an enterprise license for it. It might be for three years or so. I'm not aware of any additional costs to the standard licensing fee."
