Replication Master.
Our essential data integration procedures, including data replication, transformation, and ingestion, have been reduced and are now more efficient and cost-effective than before. Our data integration process was simplified, and both its ease of use and the manner in which it transfers data from one place to another had a good influence on our performance.
- It is really easy to scale up the big data integrated projects which helps a lot financially.
- Sometimes for data replication it's really handy.
- It can take and capture a large data.
- It requires a stable and proper internet connection.
- Sometimes it's harder to duplicate the environments.
- Some more documentation could be provided.

Qlic replicate for a small/medium company.
We use Qlik replicate to extract data from sources to a decentralized environment to minimize the impact on our production sources. We do this on any data sources that are relevant for our data engineers. We have different types of sources that all need to be replicated and Qlic replicate has done a good job so far for our data sources like Oracle, SAP, and Microsoft SQL servers.
- It has a really good replication speed.
- The interface is initiative.
- It supports many major platforms.
- It’s a bit heavy for our relative small environment.
- It works best if you also use other Qlik products.
- You need experienced people to work with this tool.

Data Engineer and Application Developer Review
Most of business case data pipelines are implemented and used with this application.
Previously, we had lots issue regarding replication of our realtime stream of business sales data and e-commerce data. Using this data warehousing is made easier and helpful. Even batch processing the streaming data is more convenient using this software.

Qlik Replicate
Qlik Replicate is used in IT to replicate on-prem data to off-prem Cloud solutions.
- Replicates data across disparate platforms.
- Pretty easy to maintain and update
- Troubleshooting issues can be difficult as errors are not very clear.
- Logging is minimal and not terribly helpful by default unless you increase the logging levels.

Quick solution out of the box but limited
We use Qlik Replicate as one of many tools to migrate data across platforms
- Simple task creation
- Bugs.
- Qlik Replicate is great because it requires no coding. But it falls short in customizability.

Data Replication is just a CLICK with Qlik Replicate
We use Qlik Replicate to Move Data over from 14 DB2 on-prem servers to AWS cloud. The tool is very easy to configure between any Source and Target. We never had any issues with it so far. It scales to a greater extent, and we can customize it to our need for Replication frequency and the format in which you want the data to be delivered into Target. It was a great suit for us, as we were looking for a tool that can read data from our Journals and not from the physical tables, so the performance of the transaction system is not Impacted. I would definitely recommend Qlik Replicate for other companies looking out for a Replication Tool.
- Easy to Scale
- Multiple Endpoint options
- Options of Output format
- Logging
- Alerting

Good and reliable replication software
We use Qlik Replicate (formerly Attunity Replicate) to load data from multiple on-prem sources (Oracle and SQL Server DBs) into the Cloud Data warehouse in Azure cloud. Software is easy to set up and configure. Software is very reliable, works great, has a scheduler that some other competitors don't have as well as a job notification process. UI is very intuitive and as long as there are no tricky transformations are deployed, users don't need any training. For heavy-duty transformations to implement, it gets tricky, and transformation functions are not obvious at times. The software supports a variety of sources and targets and works better than competitors. We run daily/weekly/monthly jobs to replicate on-prem data into the cloud and it works very well. We also have a number of near real-time replication jobs and [they] work well too.
- Performing near-real time replications for 14TB SQL Server DB into Azure EDW
- Performing near real time replications from 28TB on-prem Oracle DB into Azure EDW
- Looking for Qlik to support CDS view replications from S4 HANA, both full loads and CDC
- Better document data transformation functionality

Qlik Replicate delivers data fast for quick discovery and analysis
We use Qlik Replicate for the replication of data in our brick-and-mortar source system databases to our cloud database. Our source systems are on many servers and we replicate them near real-time to a central cloud database. In our central cloud database, our users (product, data scientists, business analysts, etc.) can query the data directly. We also maintain data marts against the replicated data that are used by many different areas of our business as well. With Qlik Replicate we can tune replication to be cost-effective per data set. And, with Qlik Enterprise Manager we can manage and analyze all replication tasks in a single UI no matter how many Qlik Replicate servers we may have and, whether they are on Linux or Windows.
- Many different source to target replication options
- Common UI on Linux and Windows
- Lots of task tuning options
- Robust API (Enterprise Manager)
- Easy to use UI
- Robust scheduler
- I would like to be able to keep task history beyond 30 days for viewing in analytics.
- I would like integrations to more than email. Say, MSFT Teams channels.
- Logging is great. With known resolutions to errors that are encountered it would be great to have more detailed context-sensitive help for faster resolution of errors. Especially if they are well known in the community.
- I would like integration to source control for our at least our tasks.

Build data pipelines quickly with Replicate
Qlik Replicate is used to replicate data across on-premise databases as well as to our cloud based data lake operations.
- Single pane of glass management with Qlick Enterprise Manager
- Ease by which to build replication jobs
- Simplicity of moving data from one location to another
- Each endpoint in use has its own challenges in terms of setting up and managing
- New features [I feel] tend to be buggy and are not easily diagnosed
- SAP HANA as a source is still a bit of a challenge if you are hoping to use log-based replication. SAP will threaten to invalidate your support. Qlik has developed a new extractor method that will take time to mature. At this point triggers are still the primary method.

Oracle and Salesforce replication to MS SQL Server made easy
We first used Qlik Replicate to replicate data from the Oracle ERP system to a Microsoft SQL Server BI system. We have also started using Qlik Replicate to replicate from Salesforce to the Microsoft SQL Server BI system.
- Flexibility for creating multiple tasks for grouping related tables
- Table level filters
- The scheduler feature has been very useful
- The scheduler, while useful, has issues when trying to create or adjust a schedule more recent than the current time UTC. That is the one thing I would really like to see improved.
Operational Application Data (Oracle + SQL Server) replication to Data Lake (SnowFlake). The core capability is to replicate Operational data in real/batched mode to Data Lake as core to servicing enterprise data hub which enables Enterprise Reporting, Data Warehouse, and other data as application usage (Data Innovation and sharing at the edge).
- Real time replication using Database Logs
- Speed to setup and make it operational
- Speed to business value realization
- Applying the solution to SAP/HANA and other databases as source
- Connectors/Adaptors to Tier 1 Cloud applications
- Data type portability across multiple databases
Qlik Replicate/Attunity is being used to replicate SQL server database to our cloud Snowflake database in near real time. It is being used to create strategic datamarts and dashboards to the whole organization and allows us to have access to the data without impacting the ERP production server with live queries.
- Replication
- Reliability
- Incremental Speed
- Full reload speed
- Features such as parallel processing are not working
- If connection is lost, a full reload is required to re-sync

Use Qlik Solutions for Data at your fingertips!
Qlik's solutions have helped make financial data more easily accessible across orgs and has provided the additional functionality my team needs to provide real-time analytics in a fast-pace Tech environment. The platforms used prior to Qlik were not as intuitive, less reliable and much slower than the solutions provided by Qlik.
- intuitive interface
- reliable data
- helpful support when needed
- smoother interface
- faster load times
- enhanced funtionality

Qlik Replicate to the rescue for Change Data Captures
Qlik Replicate is being used as a Data Ingestion layer from enterprise applications and source systems like ERP, CRM by directly scanning the backend DB logs on a real-time basis. Qlik Replicate is used specifically by IT for Data Warehousing and BI reporting. It helps resolve not running a batch-based ETL process to ingest the data into the Data Warehouse staging layers avoiding an expensive overhead to manage additional time-bound processes.
- Data ingestion.
- Real-time analytics.
- Replicating/syncing source data (CRUD operations).

Qlik Replicate for Data Analytics
It is used as a replication service(tool) to copy data from one source to another(Target) and make use of the data instead of hitting the main source and that is used for all the data analytics. This solved the problem of the cross-platform join for the end-users who want to view the data.
- Replication
- Synchronization
- Distribution
- Support
- Cost

Qlik Replicate is an efficient ETL product
We use Replicate to ETL data from on our prem instances to cloud databases hosted by both ourselves and our clients. Our clients benefit greatly from having near-real-time data from our application available to them for analysis and integration purposes. Using Replicate allowed us to avoid developing our own custom processes and tooling for automating the creation of these ETL processes.
- Reliably and quickly delivers data to and from a wide variety of endpoints.
- Support staff responds quickly and helpfully to support requests and questions.
- API coverage in Enterprise Manager allows for automation of administrative tasks.
- 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.

Qlik Replicate is a superior product that economically makes sense for any organization.
Our organization uses Qlik Replicate for streamlined data replication for ingestion across our North American data warehouses and big data platforms both on-prem and cloud environment solutions. For over 5 years we have used Qlik Replicate to move our data securely and fast! Qlik integrates with our other enterprise suites nicely and the ease of use and reliability, not to mention the economic costs, keeps us renewing year after year. The representatives and support teams at Qlik are outstanding as well. Overall, Qlik Replicate is a solution we will continue to use for years to come without our ever-evolving technological landscape.
- Data replication.
- Data ingestion.
- Data streamlining across multiple platforms.
- Not applicable, we are pleased with the performance and functionality as is.

Qlik Data Replication reduces friction in ETL
As part of our migration from an on-premises Netezza Enterprise Data Warehouse to Snowflake we also replaced dozens of lengthy ETL extract processes with Qlik Replicate. This gave us one location with multiple system's data in near real-time for operational reporting as well as the ability to simply transform and load data into the Data Warehouse without the lengthy extract process. As a result, we start the process later in the day and finish much earlier despite continuing to add more data and complex processing.
- Loads data from ERP systems.
- Non journaled/logged sources can be run as full load only processes via API calls.
- Monitoring and alerting.
- Ability to enable source system owners to start and stop tasks for their maintenance windows.
- A wizard for partitions for parallel loading.
- Better way to analyze latency.
- Better documentation for using flat files as a source.

Easy for newbies, powerful for professionals.
Replicate data from on-prem DB2 on z/OS (mainframe) database to S3 and Aurora PostgreSQL databases in AWS cloud.
- Support for many source and targets.
- Ability to customize replication setup (set locking level with connection string, set the replication key, etc.).
- Straightforward and problem-less installation.
- Lack of APIs on replicate server to automate and monitor replication. (repctl API interface on Linux replicate server is limited and being deprecated, forcing customers to use AEM server to control replicate box)
- AEM server (web interface) seems laggy, nonresponsive, slow, does not refresh. Needs to be more mature.
- Task scheduler is only available on replicate server web console. AEM should have the ability to set schedules.

Qlik Replicate review
For our main company-wide LIMS system to replicate for reports.
- Easy to make DDL changes that replicate.
- Easy to add and subtract tables.
- Keeps up with very busy system.
- Better explanation in help for settings to explain if change one setting how it could affect another setting.
- A better recommendation on what to set for a combination of settings for certain circumstances
- Make support portal much easier to use. Don't know when responding if respond to the latest comment from the support engineer or to the ticket - very confusing.
- The responsiveness from support to be much improved. I couldn't get someone to call me on the phone to discuss everything which would take a lot less time than going back and forth on the support portal.
- Latency alert to allow to be defined to continue sending every number of defined minutes like every 30 minutes if still above the threshold and hasn't dropped below the threshold. It's easy to miss the initial email so if emails continue to be sent then there's more of a chance to catch that replication is behind and something may be wrong or broken.

Ease of use
[Qlik Replicate was] mainly used for Change Data Capture[.]
- Change Data Capture
- Full Loads to MPP system
- Reading from log files from most of the sources in our case it is Oracle and SQL server
- When doing CDC from SQL server
- If we use Back up logs only then it doesn’t let us just add the new table we have to start the full load first and bring it to current and then start CDC

Gets the job done
We use Qlik replicate to sync data across multiple internal database systems. It is owned by our data services team but feeds systems that are used across the entire organisation. It mitigates a potentially intensive impact to steel thread systems.
We also use it to feed our Kafka, which in turn serves our datalake in Google cloud platform.
We also use it to feed our Kafka, which in turn serves our datalake in Google cloud platform.
- Reduces impact on source systems by reading database logs
- Allows for minor data transformations as part of the replication
- Allows for point in time recovery
- Their support is pretty poor. They can take a every long time to get to the root cause of issues and it can take a long time to roll out patches for bugs.
- We asked about a pubsub target endpoint over a year ago and have not seen anything in their roadmap for it
- QEM APIs could be improved. We've tried to automate a lot of the management but due to these limitations our solution is not as good as it could be
- No ci/cd process promoting tasks across environments.
