    Qlik Replicate works very well with relational data platforms, both on premise and in the cloud, for example Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL and others, it also works very well with DB2. If the data source is MongoDB, it is more complicated and currently there is no possibility of sending data to MongoDB.

    It's definitely one of the leading ETL tools, and it's the best ETL tool to use with SAP integration. If you use SAP HANA, then you should think about Data Services as your primary ETL tool.

    Pros
    Qlik
    • 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.

    • Integration with SAP ERP/ECC works really well.
    • A lot of flexibility in data creation, with different types of communication capabilities like BAPIs, IDocs, and Batch input.
    • Reliable and consistent results and easily enforceable data templates.

    Cons
    Qlik
    • The base Replicate web GUI is lacking. If you have dozens or more tasks, it's hard to get a sense of how they're performing. Enterprise Manager solves all of these problems but is a separate install.
    • The support portal is extremely difficult to navigate. It's hard to track down exactly what you're looking for.
    • It would be helpful to have better documentation and example queries for the tables in the Enterprise Manager analytics database.
    • Destination databases that don't support common DDL commands behave unpredictably. And the replication of schema changes isn't consistent.

    • Debugging is not very easy. When one wants to see the flow of data from one Query to another, the process is not very smooth and efficient.
    • A lot of functions do not behave the way they should. I have faced problems with the count() function.
    • I have faced problems while loading Excel files. The same set of options will work in one case but not in the other.

    The availability of the replicated data in disparate environments has is now crucial. Replacing a product like Qlik Replicate would require significant time, investments, and work. In addition, Qlik Replicate is reasonably reliable with few failures.

    Usability
    Qlik
    We now have greater business flexibility and scalability, and our big data integration projects have a quick rate of growth, which has been profitable for us. Independent of the sources involved, maintaining data consistency between sources is easy. One of my favorite features is the way it lets owners of the source system start and stop processes from updating their system windows.

    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.

    Follow the directions from the Qlik documentation. They are pretty straight forward and easy enough to follow. If you follow these, then you are not likely to have issues on implementation.

    Return on Investment
    Qlik
    • Prior to using Qlik Replicate, we used an ETL solution to copy data from the Oracle ERP system to the Microsoft SQL Server BI system at a 15-minute interval. It was very tedious to maintain. Qlik Replicate is much easier to use and we replicate data near real-time now.
