Exciting and Easy to Use Product

  • June 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The user interface was intuitive and very easy to use. I found it very easy to get up and running quickly. This product takes a lot of the complexity out of the system setup. Much easy to work with than a similar product like Hadoop with Hive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had issues getting the cluster up and running. I was getting API errors during setup and also had the cluster creation hang a couple times. I had to delete and retry creating the cluster until it worked. Just need to work the bugs out. All minor issues that I was able to work around.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SingleStore is a good solution for your Data Warehouses. It is fast when importing data and querying. No indexes required! You can choose how much processing power to setup for your cluster which is very helpful.

Exceptionally fast system with minimal changes to existing workflow or development staff training

  • June 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1) Blazing fast speed performance .Improvements in query times, between 30 to 100 times considering almost zero changes in workflow, or training new developer skills. Rather than managing the cluster ourself, it helps us offload the work of keeping the cluster optimum. 2)Easy to Deploy anywhere with minimal workflow changes or developer upskilling
3) Easy of Integrate with Standard APIs/tools/ Kafka for direct streaming to table setup
4) Efficient Row storage and column storage features
What do you dislike about the product?
No dislikes as such really at this point of time and amount of usage. Guess it might need some time to figure out how to most effectively use all the features and the system design to its best.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improvements in query times, between 30 to 100 times considering almost zero changes in workflow, or training new developer skills. Rather than managing the cluster ourself, it helps us offload the work of keeping the cluster optimum. Its a suitable option for replacement of our existing db system.

What do you like best about the product?
Its awesome to see GCP, AWS and Azure together and setting up the chosen Cloud service to singlestore. however, the singlestore has made it more easier and compact to choose service of your choice, Frontend of the (Daas) is also very catchy and professional. Over all the product is perfect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing identifiedby me, all i saw was a very productive solution to the big data problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't have knowledge about it, but my experience with single store wasmore than great, there smooth and catchy front-end and various data solutions at one place.

Amazing Experience - Really great product and support

  • May 25, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoyed using the SingleStore website! I found the tutorial and UI to be very clean and easy to use. The tutorial was helpful as well to some extent. The blogs/tutorials you guys write I think are instrumental in helping new users use your platform and follow along. More on this in another question. In terms of product, I liked being able to visualize the different parts of the node aggregation and seeing how the data was being inserted as well as its speed. I think being able to visualize the nodes working together was helpful in seeing the data being moved from one location to another. I think this is helpful in understanding where the costs are going as well, and what steps I can take in order to reduce cost while not hurting performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too much - I disliked the tutorials/documentation surrounding the work (to some extent). They were slightly different than what I actually needed to do (according to the Upwork specs). I think tutorials are a vital way to onboard new people to the platform. Making sure that each step is perfectly clear and identical (or near identical) to what needs to be done is important since having the first-impression onboarding process be as frictionless as possible will really set a positive tone for using your service more. As a developer, clear documentation is everything!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think investing in good architectures and solutions early on is critical. Once certain infrastructure and processes are in place, it becomes more difficult to switch down the line.

SingleStore Performance

  • May 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SingleStore is a really awesome and fast technology. Its fast-loading and fast data retrieval won my heart.
It supports multiple sources just like CSV, JSON, and so on.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a new user, it was a bit difficult to understand, but it became more and more logical over time.
it took me almost an hour to understand all the functionality. But upon grasping the SingleStore UI, I realized how powerful it is! Also, I recommend checking out this Getting Started on SingleStore tutorial video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIFrJJkUftA
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The basic problem of data loading was solved by SingleStore service. Raw Data loading takes a lot of time after which I need to transform the loaded data. SingleStore made my job easier, what I used to do in a day, now I can do it in a few minutes

Efficient and Scalable Data Solution

  • May 05, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I quite like the seemless integration with AWS. In just a couple of commands, I was able to pull in data from S3 into SQL and create a pipeline. The scalable parallel ingestion and live de-dupe mechanism is quite awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
I guess it would be pricing. I used S-16 cluster and exhausted $500 credit after finishing with 1billion rows load. But I think price vs performance compromise would exist in every solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making real-time transactional data available for analytics without any lag. Improving data ingestion pipeline for large amount of data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have a scalable business or expect your business to have lots of data in the near future, it would be a very good idea to explore SingleStore's solution. As name suggests, its a single store database providing a consolidated solution for all the data at a super-fast speed.

Loads a billion rows a minute!

  • April 28, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Calculating analytics on ever-larger datasets has been slowing us down and making us look outside SQL Server for answers. Options on AWS require massive re-engineering efforts. This solution seems very promising with it's lightning fast table loads and query execution times
What do you dislike about the product?
Has a learning curve like any other product. Query tool is quite basic and at least on the surface lacked ability to script out tables, administration etc. Some guidance on choosing the correct cluster instance size might also help?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Calculate analytics as fast as possible... on data increasing by a TB every year...using SQL so we don't have to undertake a massive re-engineering effort. We have been looking into multiple options, this one looks promising.

SingleStore and Advantages

  • April 27, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SingleStore is a high performance system that works well with high volume of data. I used the system to process 100 billion rows of data in less than 30mins. I am really impressed by it
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no downside that I have experienced
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem I was trying to solve with SingleStore was processing a large volume of data in a very short time. I was able to achieve this in a good time
