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.

Built for everything and packed with features but there are some monitoring limitations
Our company uses the solution to provide data integration services for customers. Most of our implementations are on-premises for large or enterprise-level customers.  We have six users with experience in both the local studio and the enterprise versions.  The solution can run on any machine and…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Great with replicating and updating records."
"Qlik Replicate's ability to correctly map and replicate data, especially when converting complex fields like packed decimal fields into integers, stands out."
"We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments."
"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 enables us to transform data at the latest stage rather than in ETL loads, so it's more ELT which is one of the advantages. It is also in near real-time, which brings significant advantage for our embedded analytics approach."
"The most valuable features of Qlik Replicate are its CDC performance and trigger functions. CDC feature is important to the financial industry."
"Support has been great."
"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."
"Overall, the management and running environment are very stable, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
"I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."
"The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language"
"The availability of connectors is great."
"The solution is connected to various phones. It retrieves the configuration from the system."
"The tool was mainly used for ETL processes to apply governance rules on data."
 

Cons

"The solution's flexibility to work with APIs should also be improved since it is very weak in working with APIs."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"We would like to see more details in messages about errors with the system."
"It's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics."
"Support-wise, this solution is in need of improvement."
"The disadvantage is people are not going for this license because it is not marketed properly."
"In various scenarios, an important consideration is when we encounter issues and Qlik Replicate suggests reloading a specific table. If we face any problems or encounter errors with that table, it becomes necessary to make a change in Qlik Replicate. Performing a full reload every time is not feasible or practical. Instead, we should identify the specific issues and address them without repeating the entire reloading process. Based on this approach, we can investigate and resolve the problem by performing targeted loads from the source itself. This change aligns with my perspective and is something I would like to implement."
"They lack in memory capacity."
"The documentation from version to version could be more accurate."
"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data."
"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."
"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."
"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."
"Performance and speed could be improved."
"Once you get past the basic tools, it gets pretty complicated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Qlik Replicate is mainly suited for large companies. However, it is too costly for small businesses. Its pricing is high."
"Qlik Replicate is not expensive, compared to GoldenGate."
"Pricing for this solution is very reasonable."
"Unlike Azure, where you pay based on consumption, Qlik Replicate seems to charge per endpoint."
"Overall, Qlik is an expensive solution. You need to pay for all additional features that you would like to use."
"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."
"The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a year."
"The solution's pricing is very reasonable and half the cost of Informatica."
"License renewal is on a yearly basis."
"The price is on a per-user basis. It's a little more expensive than other tools. There aren't any additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."
"The tool is cheap."
"The price of the Talend Data Management Platform is reasonable. The other competing solutions are priced high. Gartner Magic Quadrant identified other solutions, such as Informatica, that are far more expensive."
