Easy-To-Use, One-Stop-Shop For All Your Data Integration Needs

  • May 13, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Datameer Spectrum connects to a multitude of data sources making it a great data integration solution. Very easy GUI lets us design complex ETL pipelines without spending time on coding. Easy to learn and master and includes transformation functions for any scenario. The Spark engine auto-scales and is very efficient. Datameer keeps adding more features and data connectors in Spectrum.
What do you dislike about the product?
They have a large training library but some videos should be updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- ETLing of SaaS data to Cloud DWs (Snowflake & Redshift)
- Replication of custom databases to DW (postgres, MySQL, etc)
- Ingestion of CSV, JSON, and text files
- Data virtualization of production databases

Simplicity and consistency across the application. It just works as expected. People are surprised when I show them how easy it is to replicate a new dataset into our lake.
- We completely modernized our pipelines 6 months earlier than planned with Datameer Spectrum without the need for any additional headcount.
- Reduced production database import/export time from 5+ days to 10+ minutes and 300 TB storage is avoided with the virtualized databases.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
1. Try it out quickly, alongside a modern DW like Snowflake or AWS. Run a project for a month or two and make your own conclusions.
2. Datameer is affordable compared to other vendors like Informatica and Fivetran. Spectrum engine autoscale is included in the price so test it without worring about additional costs.
3. Embrace their ELT approach and ask support for help if you need it. Support is very responsive.

Datameer - A great data preparation tool for Hadoop

  • April 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Datameer is so easy to use and very user friendly. This tool uses excel-like features, so users who are comfortable in Excel can easily pick up Datameer. I enjoyed working with their support team as well. maintained the Datameer tool on my company's Hadoop-based machine learning platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Datameer needs mature APIs. We could have utilized the APIs in some web apps my team built for data visualizations. We also had issues integrating it with enterprise level security. I had to develop custom wrappers around reverse proxies to get Datameer to work. It was definitely not plug and play.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Datameer is a nice bridge to Hadoop that analysts and data scientists can take advantage of without needing advanced technical knowledge. Organizations who want to get started with a Hadoop cluster and the analytic capabilities provided by Hadoop, but do not have a large software development team to assist in creating Map/Reduce code are likely to be able to do some very cool things with their data with Datameer.

An amazing data prep tool that handles huge datasets with ease.

  • November 20, 2018
  • Review verified by AWS Marketplace

Datameer is awesome. Not cheap. But for the right jobs, it's totally worth it. After Excel and other ETL tools kept crashing on us when prepping 10-100+ million line csv files for loading into DynamoDB and Aurora RDS, Datameer saved us by effortlessly handling deduping and adding columns to huge files while giving us an Excel-like spreadsheet interface that makes it pretty easy to figure out. It also does a great job letting you filter out bad data during import and applying regex, logic formulas, and joining and combining multiple files together. We've used it to prep a couple billion rows worth of text files for import into databases without any big problems. Highly recommended.
