Overall Satisfaction with Astera Centerprise

We are using Astera Centerprise for automatically capturing data from PDF files and uploading to different databases. We are also using this for integration of different systems, data comparison, data validation, data extraction, and data transformation.

We initially purchased Astera Centerprise for us to automatically capture and load data from PDF documents to improve our data quality. With all the available functions in Centerprise, we expanded to different areas and continue to grow in terms of application. We also continue to work with Astera support group on possible improvements and functionalities.
  • Data parsing from PDF
  • Data transformation
  • Data loading
  • Data validation
  • Data migration/ transfer of data between systems
  • Data Comparison
  • Extraction of data from HTML
  • Data extraction from websites
  • Can you look at front end handling similar to RPA
  • Allow generation of formatted output files in PDF or MS word
  • Allow formatting of MS excel output files (highlighting of cells, underlining of values)
  • Data parsing
  • System integration
  • Data loading
  • Productivity improvement
  • Quality improvement
  • Cost reduction as a result of improved productivity
We evaluated both Monarch and Astera Centerprise and ended up purchasing Astera Centerprise due to ease of use and the wide range of available functions.

Would you buy Astera Centerprise again?

Yes

Astera is good for data capture, ETL, data migration, data validation, and most backend functions.

Astera is also good for data integration or data exchange between different systems.

There are still many functions that we have not yet used.

Astera is not suited for front end processing similar to how RPA works but it would be good if it will include this functionality.
