    Best tool to work with big dealer data, but requires technical team.

    Reviewed on Jun 02, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    We have a very big dealer and distributor network throughout India in our sanitaryware business. Big sales data are being generated everyday. Speed is my favorite thing about Databricks. Whenever we use simple excel or old software before, it is always hanging. And now our company data team is churning through the millions of rows in a short time. As a Senior Sales Specialist, I am making sure that I get my territory dashboard and forecasting reports at least daily in the morning. It is bringing all disperse data together in a good manner.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Worst thing is that it is highly technical software. As a sales person, I cannot apply it in locating data directly. I need to request data engineering or IT team to code or make query every time I desire some new custom report. User-non technical interface is becoming very complicated. And my management is continually saying this costs a great deal.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We are solving target tracking and inventory matching problem. We have a wide range of products, such as tiles, faucets, and washbasins, in Cera. Databricks is assisting our company to understand what region is selling what product more and the trend in the market. My advantage is due to this, because I can advise my local dealers accordingly, as to next month order. It is providing highly precise sales forecast and saving me my manual reporting time and I am closing my sales targets with ease.

    High-Performance Analytics with Databricks SQL and Unity Catalog Governance

    Reviewed on Jun 02, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Databricks delivers excellent performance when working with large volumes of data. The Databricks SQL environment also makes it easier for business users and analysts to explore insights without having to rely so heavily on engineering teams. Features such as Unity Catalog strengthen governance and simplify managing access across departments.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The learning curve can feel steep, especially for users coming from traditional data warehouse solutions. In my experience, query optimization can also take some extra effort, since certain workloads require additional tuning to get the best results.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We needed a solution that could handle both data warehousing and advanced analytics without creating new data silos. Databricks has helped us centralize our data assets while still maintaining strong governance. As a result, teams can access trusted data more quickly and build reports with fewer delays, which has improved decision-making across the organization.

    Databricks Unifies Data Engineering, Analytics, and ML for Faster Collaboration

    Reviewed on Jun 02, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    What I like most is how Databricks brings data engineering, analytics, and machine learning together in one environment. Our teams no longer need to jump between multiple tools to build pipelines, analyze data, and train models, which keeps work more consistent and streamlined. The notebook experience is genuinely collaborative and helps us move from exploration to development much faster. Integration with Spark and Delta Lake also makes it easier for us to process large datasets efficiently and stay organized as projects grow.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The platform can feel overwhelming for new users due to the sheer number of features available. Some of the more advanced configurations also require a solid understanding of cloud infrastructure and cluster management, which can add to the learning curve. Cost monitoring needs close attention as well, especially for teams that run large workloads on a frequent basis.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Databricks has helped us modernize our data platform and replace several disconnected tools. We now use it as a single place for ETL processing, analytics, and machine learning workloads. As a result, our operational complexity has gone down, and collaboration between data engineers and analysts has improved.

    An All-in-One Platform for Data, Analytics, and Machine Learning

    Reviewed on May 29, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I really value that this platform supports everything from raw data ingestion and SQL analytics to machine learning with notebooks. It’s not just another external tool; it feels like a fully integrated solution for an entire organization. I also appreciate that it’s designed to support both technical and business users.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Managing costs and optimizing cluster usage can sometimes be challenging and requires internal knowledge of the underlying architecture, such as CPU and RAM configuration for jobs. This can significantly impact the overall budget, especially for small companies.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Databricks helps us process millions of records daily in a reasonable amount of time while maintaining scalability for our solutions. It also allows us to build and integrate solutions not only within Databricks itself, but also by deploying external packages. In addition, the command-line tools provide flexibility to integrate with our current CI/CD workflow, helping us reduce deployment times.

    Web-based SQL workflows have become more secure and have saved significant query time

    Reviewed on May 28, 2026
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use case for Databricks is running SQL queries. I use Databricks in my day-to-day work by doing SQL queries directly in Databricks using the Genius platform to better correct the queries instead of doing queries on another platform.

    What is most valuable?

    The best features offered by Databricks include the fact that it is on the web, that it does not depend on installing any software, and most importantly, the security that prevents connection to anyone else who is not logged in.

    Regarding the security and web access I mentioned, I have noticed concrete benefits related to collaboration and data protection within my team, such as it being very secure and the fact that every time we enter the platform, it does the same credential verification.

    The features of Databricks have impacted my organization positively, as it has done so very efficiently since we switched from several platforms to using this one. After implementing Databricks in my organization, I have observed that it has been more efficient with my team.

    What needs improvement?

    I think the aspects of Databricks that should be improved are that it could be faster and that I would like to be able to run direct queries from the server. I have not seen any other improvements that I think are needed in Databricks.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Databricks is stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    I rate the scalability of Databricks as excellent.

    How are customer service and support?

    Databricks customer support is very good. I would give Databricks customer support a rating of ten.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I did not use any other solution before Databricks.

    What was our ROI?

    I have seen a return on investment, as time is greatly saved and processes are faster.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    My experience with pricing, implementation costs, and licensing is that it is very efficient and very fast.

    What other advice do I have?

    My advice to others considering using Databricks is that it is the best platform with artificial intelligence. I give this review an overall rating of ten.
