ParthasarathyT - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Associate Infrastructure at Publicis Sapient
Attribution has enabled precise campaign decisions but pricing and support still need improvement
Pricing is a major area for improvement, as costs rise quickly as our app grows. The pricing becomes significantly expensive as event volume increases, so a clearer or more predictable pricing tier instead of a pure pay-per-event structure would be beneficial. Confusion around billing contracts is an issue, with several users feeling locked in and confused about pricing, charges, and contracts. Support is quite inconsistent, with no dedicated account managers available to resolve queries. Technically and functionally, Appsflyer looks good, but accuracy can sometimes face issues. Some users report inaccurate or inflated metrics that undermine trust, affecting the numbers recorded. We have faced this ourselves. We also experience dashboard issues occasionally, such as when the dashboard gets stuck in a loop and will not allow us to see it quickly during login, generally taking some time or requiring us to load the same page repeatedly. This happens occasionally, but Appsflyer is still a good tool.

Has simplified multi-database querying and accelerated solution delivery with minimal setup
Denodo offers a great query language, the VQL, which was very easy to understand for someone that only knows SQL. It was easy to work with, and it was easy to integrate various types of databases in general. The usability of the platform is very great. The federated queries were also a feature that I used a lot. The easy usability of Denodo helped my work and made things easier for productivity. We were able to ship code faster than if we needed to use another type of data visualization tool or even an ETL. When we have multiple databases, the standard or common approach is just to have an ETL that matches the data, and we need to write this whole ETL. With Denodo, we can simplify this whole work to a few queries or setups in the databases and just make a few queries. This was actually easier, and it was faster to deliver a solution for a client instead of building a whole ETL pipeline or simply backfilling one database in another. Denodo simplifies your work and helps you ship code or ship solutions in a faster way. I really like the UI that Denodo has on the web app version. It was very simple and actually very beautiful to see. For a complicated program, it was very easy to understand how it works, even for someone who is just approaching the data engineering career or side of the programming language.

Cons

"An area of improvement for Appsflyer is the large number of reports and dashboards."
"Some clients also mention that the pricing for Appsflyer can become expensive as apps scale and attribution volumes grow, especially for high growth consumer apps."
"Appsflyer is a powerful application, but sometimes having a lot of reports and charts can become complex initially and has a learning curve to it."
"Appsflyer can be improved with event de-duplication."
"One challenge is attribution discrepancies; sometimes the numbers among Appsflyer, Meta, and Google internal backend events do not match, especially after iOS ATT changes."
"Appsflyer could improve its documentation so that developers can implement it better."
"It is difficult to predict the price for Appsflyer as it is based on conversions. It is also expensive."
"Pricing is a major area for improvement, as costs rise quickly as our app grows."
"Don't have too high expectations on data catalog functionality. It works, but, its current implementation is rather rudimental."
"Denodo's pricing is not affordable for small companies and is more suitable for medium to large enterprises."
"Denodo currently integrates with ChatGPT, but the ability to manage and utilize them directly within Denodo would be a significant improvement."
"The connectivity is not so great; it uses standard protocols to connect to the data center, and it could improve the interface in terms of automation."
"In my opinion, it's very expensive. For small companies, it's not a solution that most small companies can afford."
"The git configuration really should be improved."
"The dropdown menus feel antiquated to me, and the administrative portals need improvement."
"We've been disappointed with the level of technical support, particularly on the outset."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I don't know the actual cost, but it's tens of thousands of dollars per month."
"There is an express edition and a licensed enterprise edition."
"The pricing is pretty good, and I would rate it at four out of five."
"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."
"Depending on the size of the client you want to work with, it can be prohibitively expensive at times."
"Talking with my manager and others, nobody has complained about the pricing so far which is a positive sign."
"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."
"The licensing should be improved, as the cost per connector is quite expensive."
