A very effective data observability product with good customer support

  • April 26, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of the best upsides of Monte Carlo for me is that it catches data incidents you didn't think to check for with explicit tests in your pipeline, tightening feedback loops and enabling you to reduce your time to recovery.

The lineage feature is also very useful to us, and the fact that everything can be done via APIs makes it very engineer-friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The integration with git for Looker dashboard lineage has been the most painful part for us, as we have many LookML github repos with distributed ownership, so tracking down the admins of those and getting them to set up deploy keys has been a laborious process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides monitoring coverage for unknown-unknown situations, and we hope that this combined with the incident handling capability will help use reduce time to recovery for data incidents.

The lineage information it gathers isn't just limited to particular pipelines or one database, the fact that it can also incorporate Looker dashboards makes it very convenient for us and helps us to understand and surface the data supply chain behind reports, etc.

Enhances Data Quality Monitoring with ML and Slack

  • April 25, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how Monte Carlo brings data quality insights to the people who can fix them, the users of the data sources. I also find the ML thresholds helpful because they let Monte Carlo handle the error alerts, so the data platform team doesn't have to create the error thresholds manually. The integration with Slack is another plus, as it offers a centralized place for alerts and makes it easy to send them to the right stakeholders. Monte Carlo is easy to use, even though I didn't handle the initial setup.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm having challenges with integrating Monte Carlo with AI agents. It would be great if AI agents could interact more seamlessly with Monte Carlo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monte Carlo brings data quality insights to users who can fix them. It handles error alerts with ML thresholds so the data platform team doesn't have to set them. Slack integration centralizes alerts and sends them to the right stakeholders.

Monte Carlo finds the needle in a haystack

  • April 25, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1) Ease of set-up - Out-of-the-box monitors for freshness, volume, and schema start training as soon as the MC service principal has access to the tables.
2) Effective Visuals – Results and Incident are visually appealing, but most importantly they present the data in a way that can be easily consumed. The percent increase or decrease for a metric is presented over days or weeks aside the row counts to give context.
3) Seamless Slack integration – It is quick to set-up MC monitor notifications via Slack channels. Responses written in Slack are saved to Monte Carlo, saving time and effort.
4) Low noise - MC keeps the noise level down. False-positive issues are not as common as found in other tools.
5) Customer support - MC hands-down has the best customer support. Their team feels part of our own. They have learned the nuances of our data. They respond quickly to all questions and concerns. Suggestions that we have made about the tool have been implemented (quickly). They are constantly evolving the tool to make it even better.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have many custom monitors. We can effectively see and manage these monitors in the Monte Carlo tool. On our wish list, we would also like to see these monitors by schedule time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monte Carlo helps us identify bugs and data freshness issues quickly, enabling teams to fix the problems faster. Having a quicker turnaround saves the company money by having less data loss and backfills. Better data equals better decisions.
