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.

Lightweight tool, ensures that data is replicated across different systems and simplify complex tasks such as defining relationships
Qlik Compose is something that will automate user's overall data modernization. Here data modernization includes data modeling, ETL jobs, etc. But the advantage is users can automate the overall process of data engineering and data modeling through Qlik Compose. I think that's useful when users are able to manage 60% of the workload automated. That will be very useful. That's fantastic. Replicate does not have a great AI capability. AI capabilities are present in Qlik Sense. Qlik Replicate is a very light tool. It is only meant to capture data from the log files, get the data, and transfer it, read that table structure, create the table structure, and transfer the data whenever there is a change. So, it basically integrates with the kernel of the operating system. The way it works is that these replicate tools will integrate with the kernel of the operating system, and they will access the redo log files of the database. The redo log should have access to all the files of the structure of the schema, too. So, using that technique, they redo all the data structures, create a similar structure, and replicate the structure in the target schema, table, and database. After that is done, it will start tracing the instances that are happening. For example, if data is inserted into the table, then an insert is fired on the statement on the table. So, that particular insert is captured. And based on that insert statement, it will pull the SQL query and say, "Okay, there is an insert. I need to get that data." It will get the data from the redo log itself rather than going to a database. Then, it will just pass that transaction into the target system, where it will just insert the data. And this happens instantaneously, within a microsecond. So, if there is an insert, an update, or a delete, everything is transferred immediately. It is picked from the redo log because it comes to the redo log, and then the redo log sends it to Qlik Replicate and Replicate to the target system on which Replicate is installed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"The CDC and the flexibility to use QVD as a source are the most valuable features of Qlik Replicate."
"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."
"The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"From a technical perspective, this is an excellent product."
"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."
"It is only meant to capture data from the log files, get the data, and transfer it, read that table structure, create the table structure, and transfer the data whenever there is a change."
"The most valuable features of Qlik Replicate are its CDC performance and trigger functions. CDC feature is important to the financial industry."
 

Cons

"This product would be improved with additional built-in functions for simpler date conversion, as well as for data type transformations."
"Pricing is an area that needs improvement."
"The product should improve its licensing limitation."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"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."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"It's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics."
"We'd like better connectivity."
"Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I found the price to be quite reasonable."
"Customers pay a license fee yearly."
"Overall, Qlik is an expensive solution. You need to pay for all additional features that you would like to use."
"Qlik Replicate is mainly suited for large companies. However, it is too costly for small businesses. Its pricing is high."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Qlik Replicate's pricing a nine out of ten."
"Pricing for this solution is very reasonable."
"Qlik Replicate is not expensive, compared to GoldenGate."
"Unlike Azure, where you pay based on consumption, Qlik Replicate seems to charge per endpoint."
