Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."The initial setup phase of Databricks was good."
"Its lightweight and fast processing are valuable."
"The time travel feature is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"It's very simple to use Databricks Apache Spark."
"Databricks is a scalable solution. It is the largest advantage of the solution."
"Databricks allows me to automate the creation of a cluster, optimized for machine learning and construct AI machine learning models for the client."
"Databricks' most valuable feature is the data transformation through PySpark."
"Ability to work collaboratively without having to worry about the infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature I would say is the flexibility in editing."
"The most important feature of the solution is the ability to run Python-based scripts."
"The solution is simple for people from a viewing perspective, not a coding perspective."
"The tool helps to catch results and review them."
"Databricks could improve in some of its functionality."
"The data visualization for this solution could be improved. They have started to roll out a data visualization tool inside Databricks but it is in the early stages. It's not comparable to a solution like Power BI, Luca, or Tableau."
"I have seen better user interfaces, so that is something that can be improved."
"There should be better integration with other platforms."
"If I want to create a Databricks account, I need to have a prior cloud account such as an AWS account or an Azure account. Only then can I create a Databricks account on the cloud. However, if they can make it so that I can still try Databricks even if I don't have a cloud account on AWS and Azure, it would be great. That is, it would be nice if it were possible to create a pseudo account and be provided with a free trial. It is very essential to creating a workforce on Databricks. For example, students or corporate staff can then explore and learn Databricks."
"It would be great if Databricks could integrate all the cloud platforms."
"Databricks may not be as easy to use as other tools, but if you simplify a tool too much, it won't have the flexibility to go in-depth. Databricks is completely in the programmer's hands. I prefer flexibility rather than simplicity."
"Scalability is an area with certain shortcomings. The solution's scalability needs improvement."
"The solution could run faster."
"The data visualization is cumbersome in Mode Analytics. I want the solution to add a map that has an easy interface. The UI is slow sometimes."
"Mode Analytics needs to improve the overall user experience."
"I think in terms of User Interface, I would say it can be better."
