The same dataset is very helpful
My EU friend recommended me Ultipa Cloud last month, I was a little bit skeptical because there are a few graph players out there and I've used some of them, honestly speaking most of which are not entirely satisfactory.
I was able to talk with Ultipa Cloud team (over email initially) because i wasn't sure which setup (instance configurations) are appropriate to my needs -- I have about 50 million nodes and edges (about 5M nodes and 45M edges -- yes, the data set is pretty heavily connected, considering each node has about 20 in and outbound connections), the size of my graph data set. And I had problem having the famous neo*j to process any queries that are over 4 hops or deeper in real time.
Surprising, Ultipa holds her promise to quickly process my data set, I would summarize Ultipa's advantages, in my opinion, in the following ways:
A. For path queries, if you are find connections, scope of impact, my gosh, Ultipa is tons of times faster, period. i didn't gauge the exact time, but i feel it's at least 10x faster than Neo*j....
B. For graph algorithms, it's simply fast and sound... can you imagine running Louvain, and getting results in seconds instead of hours as in other graph systems, such as Neo*j or Neptune?
C. I'm also grateful that their support team are diligent in helping me sorting out things... very responsive... that's a big plus... they are motivated and willing to help customers out, have to appreciate that, for sure.
I hope my review helpful for people who have been struggling with graph technologies like me...

Not only FAST, but also productive with their support and online documents
I've been using the DBaaS edition of Ultipa since early January, here are my feedbacks (positive for sure):
1. Steady and consistent release schedule: I can tell over each monthly release, new features (for good and for better) are being rolled out, very promising.
2. Truly fast, and much faster than other graph products (you know what I'm talking about here), I have used some popular community edition of N*J, and it wasn't satisfactory on larger datasets (over 10M for instance) or complex/deep queries (over 3+ hops). Ultipa is on average ~10x faster I would say...
3. Many many algorithms offered! at least 40 plus?
4. Documentation! Ultipa's documentation is surprisingly professional, detail oriented and helpful! You will know this when you use it, mark my word!
