4/5

What do you like best about WhereScape RED?

WhereScape RED does well in scenarios where implemented in a Raw Data Vault construct.

It does very well where scripts and structures are repeatable. I use the tool daily as part of my job function. Using the pebble templates was a steep learning curve, but once I figured that out the implementation and integration aspects became simple. When coupled with 3D it functions extremely well.

What do you dislike about WhereScape RED?

Red does not perform well for Business Data Vaults though, where lots of customization is required on target objects. And then becomes a standard IDE.

The customer support needs to be better equipped for enterprises, and assistance for enterprise customisation should be enhanced. Not all organisations are the same, so a team dedicated to specific platforms used in enterprise would be beneficial. The overall support would be greatly enhanced by having resources dedicated to assisting with template builds across platforms (hive for example) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is WhereScape RED solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using RED to Automate our Data Warehouse build on DV2.0.

We are the team responsible for how this is implemented, so the benefit we get is automatically generated scripts for a massive organisation with a low number of developers. We would not have been able to manually build out over 5000 objects in the time we have been using the tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
