We are a gas and electric utility in the Netherlands.

Smallworld 4.3 is our registration system and we currently use Smallworld Sync Manager to load changes to an Oracle Spatial database nightly.

Next week we are reviewing Sync Manager and also looking at alternatives.

My question is are there organisations that use FME instead of the Sync Manager to populate Oracle Spatial nightly from Smallworld? What are the pros and cons?

We do have the FME Smallworld license and I've made a connection to Smallworld via FME Desktop last year before we upgraded. I found the reading the Smallworld features very slow. We don't have SpatialBiz plugin.

Would @MarkAtSafe or @erik_jan have any thoughts?

Thanks,

Annette
