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.

Easy matching and reconciliation of data
The initial setup was easy for the data warehousing concept. But for a person who is new to ETL and warehousing concepts, it may take some time. If someone is familiar with these concepts, they could understand and learn the tool quickly. However, compared to other tools, the UI is complex. It would be helpful to have a better UI and documentation for new users. As of now, there is a challenge in learning the Compose tool for new users altogether. Qlik Compose was deployed on-premises. But the servers, like the SQL servers were maintained on the cloud—the managed instances.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"We are heavily involved with GitHub for managing repositories, automatic deployments, and inner source projects."
"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 can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."
"It provides a good response for external microservices applications."
"The most valuable is its excellence as a graphical data representation tool and the versatility it offers, especially with drill-down capabilities."
"Qlik Compose is good enough. It is user-friendly and intuitive."
"As long as you pick the solution that best fits with your requirements, you won't find that performance is a problem. It's good."
"One of the most valuable features of this tool is its automation capabilities, allowing us to design the warehouse in an automated manner. Additionally, we can generate Data Lifecycle Policies (DLP) reports and efficiently implement updates and best practices based on proven design patterns."
"One of the most valuable features was the ability to integrate multiple source systems that mainly used structured IDBMS versions."
"There were many valuable features, such as extracting any data to put in the cloud. For example, Qlik was able to gather data from SAP and extract SAP data from the platforms."
"I have found it to be a very good, stable, and strong product."
"It can scale."
 

Cons

"Support could be improved. They lack knowledge."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
"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."
"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"There could be more customization options."
"When processing data from certain tables with a large volume of data, we encounter significant delays. For instance, when dealing with around one million records, it typically takes three to four hours. To address this, I aim to implement performance improvements across all tables, ensuring swift processing similar to those that are currently complete within seconds. The performance issue primarily arises when we analyze the inserts and updates from the source, subsequently dropping the table. While new insertions are handled promptly, updates are processed slowly, leading to performance issues. Despite consulting our Qlik vendors, they were unable to pinpoint the exact cause of this occurrence. Consequently, I am seeking ways to optimize performance within Qlik Compose, specifically concerning updates."
"I'd like to have access to more developer training materials."
"Qlik's ETL and data transformation could be better."
"There should be proper documentation available for the implementation process."
"For more complex work, we are not using Qlik Compose because it cannot handle very high volumes at the moment. It needs the same batching capabilities that other ETL tools have. We can't batch the data into small chunks when transforming large amounts of data. It tries to do everything in one shot and that's where it fails."
"I believe that visual data flow management and the transformation function should be improved."
"It could enhance its capabilities in the realm of self-service options as currently, it is more suited for individuals with technical proficiency who can create pages using it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"While they outperform Tableau, there's room for improvement in Qlik's pricing structures, especially for corporate clients like us."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is very expensive, I rate the solution a six."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
