Excellent change data capture utility for distributed multi site environment
Customer Service: We have a support contract with Jumpmind. The support resources are readily available and provide expert support to any questions. Technical Support: Jumpmind created and open sourced this solution. All the key players are still actively involved with the technology and provide answers to all our open questions. The consistency we receive from their support is second to none.
Emmanuel Catalano - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers reliable data management and simple to use but requires more intuitive configuration
I am not very happy with Oracle Support. Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests. A lot of the time, the support asks the same questions repeatedly, which takes time. Usually, I solve my issue myself before they give me solutions. It seems like they do not really understand my problem, even if I translate what I want to say from Italian with tools like Google Translate. Sometimes it is very difficult to communicate with them. We have some Oracle support staff in Italy whom I can reach directly, which helps, but there seems to be a problem with the support requests. It is also an issue when different Oracle representatives handle my request at different times and ask me to explain the problem again despite it being written in the support request. This makes it very frustrating. Additionally, issues arise with product understanding. For example, in dedicated infrastructure, the Oracle staff handling the support request may not be familiar with the product or suggest solutions suitable for other infrastructures but not mine. Oracle Support should know the solutions that fit my infrastructure since they manage it, not me.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"This has significantly eased the process of migration from on-premise to cloud. Instead of configuring everything from the ground up, the Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service has made it seamless to build and render databases in cloud."
"Oracle Database generally guarantees a good response for customer use cases."
"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It provides a good response for external microservices applications."
"We are heavily involved with GitHub for managing repositories, automatic deployments, and inner source projects."
 

Cons

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
"Support could be improved. They lack knowledge."
"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests."
"Oracle is always adding new features. I can't think of anything that's urgent currently."
"I am not very happy with Oracle Support. Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests."
