    Computer Software

Great product for uncovering data insights but not made for team projects

  • November 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can sync data from different systems all onto this one platform and everything can be analyzed without switching programs since you can also use many different programming languages and reap the benefits of each such as SQL and Python. This makes it so much easier to work with large datasets. Very nice user interface too!
What do you dislike about the product?
Very difficult to collaborate on projects using Databricks, it is its biggest downfall and in fact just almost outweighs the benefits. I also don't think their customer support is the best, have had some challenges with that. Otherwise a very good product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great way to uncover data insights easily from large datasets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep in mind that you cannot collaborate on products. Technical support is also not the best!

    Hospital & Health Care

An easy way to quickly and efficiently analyze data

  • June 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how accurate and quick databricks is. Once I started working with databricks, I couldn’t fathom doing data analyzation and comparisons without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software is not the cheapest on the market and that detracts funds that could go elsewhere throughout the hospital. However, databricks continues to be a great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multiple forms of data analysis along with demographics and data comparison implementations.

    Education Management

Ease of Implementation

  • June 12, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Overall, since we brought in DataBricks, our ability to use DataScience and advacned analytics at scale has gone up 100 times. Our experience has been awesome, and I know we're not even pushing the bounds of what it can do
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall Databricks has worked well, though it has taken longer than we anticipated to get it up and running.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Frees up data scientists to do data science instead of fighting with cluster management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Provides support and solution that is not available in open source version. Good communication


    Civic & Social Organization

Make Big Data Feel Small

  • June 07, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The system architects data delivery in a very easy to use and intuitive way. Non-data-savvy individuals are able to access the insights that data can provide and the support around the product is 2nd to none!
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost is always a concern when working with a system like this, but if the organization can afford it the insights and ease of use are worth it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Similar to salesforce, we are able to sync are data from disperate systems and visualize in a single space
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to ask an individual their experience with the product and how they used it. The work to implement and create connections is often the most complicated part, not the analysis of the data itself.


    Internet

Very fast to run queries

  • March 27, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Databricks is a great tool to integrate queries from MySQL, Redshift, Python, and Adobe Clickstream data and the queries run pretty fast too.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes some coding knowledge to set up and a good Data Engineering team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to pull reports in one place.

Not optimized for algorithms but a great warehousing tool

  • February 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to automatically load data from aws into databricks for collection, and analysis. It does a great job of customizing the notebooks and nodes that can be created.
What do you dislike about the product?
This tool is not optimized for R users. They were supposed to have an update Q1 for R studio but their help team informed me that this was no longer a priority. Even so, heavy AI and machine learning algorithms are not optimized for use here besides the usual theano and keras on python. Its also difficult to run analyses on a large volume of data without sampling which defeats the purpose.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
data warehousing, sampling, simple models
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have simple needs and not looking to run unsupervised AI on this then it will work for you. I, however, need to create sophisticated models and cannot do so without constantly running into issues left and right.
