Data virtualization has unified siloed sources and now supports real-time decisions
The best features Denodo offers stand out to me as the ability to develop REST web services fast and easily, create and combine new views, integrate different sources of data, and connect with other tools seamlessly. When I mention fast and easy creation of views and integration, I love the agile data provisioning and integration, where Denodo provides a comprehensive set of capabilities for implementing logical data integration, management, and delivery, which in turn enables agile data analytics and an informed decision-making process to be smooth. I also appreciate the performance optimization with AI, which improves performance optimization through the integration of artificial intelligence capabilities. Furthermore, I appreciate the unified security and governance, where it addresses the need for an organization to effectively manage security, data privacy, and data protection easily, offering a centralized platform that allows the application of governance policies and fine-grained security controls. Another feature I would add about Denodo is that it also provides a single point of control where we can establish security controls over the entire infrastructure and gain visibility into all our data assets. Denodo has positively impacted my organization as since we started using this tool, it has been very helpful because it is a huge advantage that we can connect to many different databases to provide data rapidly and accurately and also gain insights, which helps us to make data-driven decisions easily. It has proven to be a valuable environment for deploying data virtualization solutions, and its user community is active in finding and fixing issues more accurately. Through data insights from Denodo, we have been able to improve our decision making, which helps to better communication between the stakeholders thanks to the real-time experience. It also saves a lot of time.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is its capability for real-time data streaming."
"The performance and the speed to market are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The data abstraction is the most valuable feature."
"Denodo provides high reliability, with features like vertical scaling, horizontal scaling, and failover nodes."
"Denodo makes it easy to export data as a service or data link to other services."
"The most valuable features of Denodo are the extraction option for adapters, and there are many things for the views that are cached."
"The most valuable aspects of this solution are the short time frame in which you can deliver and connect."
"Denodo's capabilities offer a strong and intuitive solution for data access."
"The most valuable feature is Data Catalogs."
 

Cons

"Amazon Data Firehose enhances our AI-driven analytics projects by providing a means to manage data streaming and delivery at any scale."
"Performance management could be improved."
"Denodo shows stability concerns due to its dependency on external environments, such as JVM."
"Monitoring event logs can be improved. In the older version, there was a monitoring schedule to get event reports and properly audit the reports. In the newer version, it is not there, and we have to manually configure data and audit events."
"Denodo has some difficulty supporting large numbers of records."
"In cases where there are multiple virtualizations—such as reading from one Denodo view that is virtualized, and from that view there's also virtualization, and another team is reading from that view—if multiple virtualizations happen with no caching in between, it becomes slow."
"Everything from the initial support for questions, all the way through to ongoing support once you're live with the product, needs improvement."
"I would like to see a proper way to avoid killing the sourcing systems."
"The solution should have its own acceleration technology."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Cost wise, on a scale from one to five, with one being the cheapest and five being the most expensive, Denodo would be at three. We get all the features in a bundle."
"Denodo provides a lightweight 30-day free trial, but when we do courses on top of it, it costs $150 for each person."
"The licensing charges for this solution are payable annually."
"I am not super familiar with the pricing, but so far, it seems good. We have been happy. We haven't seen any problems. The only time we had to pay extra was during the upgrade. We didn't upgrade at the time they told us to upgrade, and we had to pay extra to keep the service. They had stopped the support for the older version and moved to the newer version. It was not their fault. It was our fault because we didn't get on board quickly."
"The cost for Denodo is in line with other similar products."
"Talking with my manager and others, nobody has complained about the pricing so far which is a positive sign."
"The pricing is pretty good, and I would rate it at four out of five."
"I don't know the actual cost, but it's tens of thousands of dollars per month."
