Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
It has improved our data integration capabilities. Provides a good open source option. | We used it pretty heavily in gathering data, which goes to our VPs. They are able to base their next revenue planning based on this metric. So, it has been invaluable. The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized. |
Cons | |
There is not a data quality or MDM solution in the Pentaho DI suite. I could not connect to our Hadoop environment in an easy and flexible way, and it was important to scale our data warehouse. I work with the Community Edition, therefore I do not have support. There was an issue that I could not resolve with community support. | We would like an easier way to get the product to the cloud. Right now, we have the on-premise version, and we would like to find a way to make it easier to migrate it over to the cloud. I would like more easy-to-implement analytical algorithms. At the moment they include things like forecasts and regressions. They need to add a lot more of these types of things to the product because not everyone is a data scientist. |
