AWS Data Exchange vs Qlik Replicate

Likelihood to Recommend

AWS Data Exchange fits best for scenarios where you have datasets that you would like to sell and you want to deliver it to anyone who would like to purchase it. It really beats having to set up downloads via your own website or portal. However, it can get complicated to manage if you're trying to deliver a dataset a client has already paid for.

It's great if you need read only copies of data. Expect to have to deal with a lot of reloads though. When it fails, it can fail spectacularly though.

Replicate is extremely stable and does not generate a lot of alerts/failures/issues that take up time to troubleshoot.
It is very easy to add new source tables to a Replicate task so that we're always in sync with new data available from the CRM.
It's nice that Qlik Replicate also allows you to create a job to stop and then restart your tasks during maintenance windows that occur on both the source and target systems.

Qlik Replicate 8.0

Based on 9 answers

You don't have to be a GURU to use QLIK. By taking a basic training, you will be able to design a real-time data flow. It is simple to set up connection, configure settings, add internal parameters, add source and endpoints. On top of that giving permission and creating schedules can be done with minimum effort. The User Interface is very friendly for users.

Qlik Replicate 3.6

Based on 1 answer

The issue I've had is that Qlik does an awful job of keeping their customers informed when new versions of the software are available. We found that we were using a version that was no longer supported and could never get help. When it came time to get us upgraded so that we were on a current version, no one knew how to help get us to where we needed to be. We had to purchased professional services time and even then I was basically on my own to get everything built out and set up. Qlik needs to be more proactive with communicating about new releases and how to get your version upgraded in the most secure, safe way possible.

Qlik Replicate 7.3

Based on 1 answer

A lot of the process was done by an Attunity or Qlik engineer and there wasn't a lot of knowledge transfer to feel comfortable about maintaining the software without their help.

We're still evaluating, but so far Replicate is easier to set up than HVR. I'm not involved with the Fivetran evaluation.

We are replicating data from DB2 and Oracle. Data delivery speed is impressive.
Our old replication software was complex and was maintained by one resource. By introducing Qlik Replicate, we have the flexibility where many resources are trained and capable to operate and there is no need for a dedicated resource to manage this tool. This helped us save time and money by reducing a dedicated resource.
