WhereScape shortens the travel time from source to target for data our business needs for reporting.
What do you like best about WhereScape RED?
WhereScape puts a lot of the ETL I do in one place. I'm quickly able to take a piece of source data, transform and cleanse it, and get it into our reporting environment without a lot of effort. While it doesn't fully design the datawarehouse, it certainly makes the build and deploy processes faster.
What do you dislike about WhereScape RED?
The scheduler could use some work. It is robust, but there are some quirks about moving things from the dev environment to the production environment and I feel like it could be easier to get it to send out success/failure notifications.
What problems is WhereScape RED solving and how is that benefiting you?
As the only database/BI manager for the company, I have a lot of roles to fill. WhereScape helps me consolidate a lot of my design and deployment responsibilities into one place and as such, saves me a lot of time.

Excellent Data Automation Tool
What do you like best about WhereScape RED?
Ease of use creating data pipelines from traditional database sources. UI is easy to understand, anyone with SQL skills could learn how to use. Documentation of how data flows is great. Like that Wherescape takes care of primary/foreign key generation, and indexing. Customer support is quick to respond on any support tickets.
What do you dislike about WhereScape RED?
Not the best product at creating pipelines/integrations from API sources. We don't currently rely on Wherescape RED to pull data from REST APIs, but will start playing around with RED's host script extensibility. It does, however, require some additional configuration/customization, and is not an "out of the box" feature.
What problems is WhereScape RED solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wherescape RED is our primary ETL tool, we also use it for a component for some of our system to system integrations that rely on flat files/SFTP.

Wherescape RED for small teams
What do you like best about WhereScape RED?
If used properly, RED establishes "guardrails" for ELT processes that make building and troubleshooting data warehousing objects faster.
What do you dislike about WhereScape RED?
To properly implement the solution, you really need to think 10 steps ahead. When we initially constructed the enviornment, we
What problems is WhereScape RED solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a self-documenting, metadata driven ELT tool has proven invaluable to helping with audits. Also, it established guiderails by which development should take place (templates).
