Solves a lot of problem statements
What do you like best about the product?
The number of use cases where cData sync is used, for integrating two different sources (mySQL and Oracle) the JDBC and ODBC drivers for cData works great and helps bring in data seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The users need to be technically sound and they need to know how to install a driver on their machine for connecting the two databases or use it beneath a SQL client.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating Oracle Eloqua and MySQL were pretty handy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Their support team is good, Arun helped a lot from CData

It seems to be an excellent tool
What do you like best about the product?
It's really good the way on how you can replicate your data from any data source to any database. It's very easy to configure your connections and quickly very if they work at least for SQL Server
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not that strong for other database engines than SQL Server and MySQL
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently, the problem is that there are some problems with the data synchronization and we are working with support.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read all the documentation first
ETL for Dummies
What do you like best about the product?
CData Sync allows users to ETL data from cloud data sources to local destinations to allow for in-house reporting and analytical needs. The GUI interface to CData makes getting up and going a breeze with unfamiliar data sources. If you are not an ETL expert, and you don't like spending days building your own ETL processes, CData is your tool. Establish a connection to the source, point CData to the destination, and let it take over from there.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of documentation for more advanced features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a hybrid data model. We use several cloud solutions including Salesforce, Marketing Cloud, Eloqua, and WordPress to name a few. We have internal proprietary systems and data warehouses, that require the data from the source to be merged with data internally. CData has allowed us to focus on the data merging and not spend the time and effort building the ETL tools to bring the data locally.

If you need to replicate data from unfamiliar data sources, give CData a chance.
Intuitive, intelligent, powerful.
What do you like best about the product?
This application is incredible. I used to think that syncing a cloud-based application into a local SQL server had to be addressed on a case by case basis. Then I found CData, which allows you to set up connections from multiple popular data sources to various destinations in a flexible and intuitive manner. Selecting tables/fields, scheduling sync jobs, etc. - all of it is very easy!
Our needs are limited to syncing a few sources into a local SQL server database, primarily so we can report on it using Tableau. However, the application allows for many more data sources and destinations than we are using. It's clear the product team has made great strides for their app to meet the needs of many.
Additionally, the support team is fantastic. They are not only knowledgeable and helpful, but the company has been shown to be very customer-centric by mobilizing development resources as needed to meet our needs through updates to the application on multiple occasions.
If you are looking for middleware to sync data between systems - look no further!

What do you dislike about the product?
The application is locally installed on a machine, as opposed to being cloud-based. Would be nice to access it from anywhere. That said, this hasn't ever really been a hindrance. We have it installed on a server machine which I can remote access from various workstations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to quickly report on data using Tableau from a few data sources (SQL server is a fast and easy data source for Tableau).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure they support all your data sources and destinations (they probably do).
Simple, lightweight and solid
What do you like best about the product?
It's quick and simple to get a solid incremental update process up and running. It's simplified our loading processes to oour Data Warehouse. Tech support is good, friendly and helpful. Documentation is good with decent examples.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish SQL Server wasn't a premium source. Fortunately it's not a premium target. We've had to be a bit creative to fit all our needs into our package of 5 connections but it's working fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Removed the need to use SSIS packages. ETL processing is now much more of a hands off affair.
