IT Consultant at a outsourcing company with 10,001+ employees
Automation and lineage visibility have transformed how our teams schedule and monitor ETL workflows
There are multiple products from Dagster Labs: Dagster Cloud, Dagster Labs, and sometimes it is quite confusing to choose which one for what purposes. I know there are some licensing buckets for small organizations, medium organizations, and bigger organizations, so the modeling and the cost estimation part could be more intuitive, making it easier for beginners to understand how much time and money they would save by onboarding Dagster Labs in their project. I deducted two points because I faced some challenges working with the Git repository integration with Dagster Labs due to some security keys or some weird issue. I had to get in a call with Dagster Labs subject matter expert, and we really struggled for two to three weeks because we could not establish the secure connection through that.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"We switched to CloverETL because of its flexibility to connect to various data sources and no dependence on native language and ease of use."
"Connectivity to various data sources: The ability to extract data from different data sources gives greater flexibility."
"Server features for scheduler: It is very easy to schedule jobs and monitor them. The interface is easy to use."
"Familiar, intuitive GUI coming from a Java development background, in-depth, descriptive, and well-laid-out documentation, responsive support through forums directly from Clover staff, a wealth of customizable pre-defined components, descriptive logging for error messages, and ease of install with a light footprint make it very effective to use."
"Key features include wealth of pre-defined components; all components are customizable; descriptive logging, especially for error messages."
"No dependence on native language and ease of use.​​"
"Since automating with Dagster Labs, I save around 90% of manual effort."
"Dagster Labs has impacted my organization positively by enabling faster project delivery since it has reduced a lot of manual efforts, especially the manual scheduling part."
"Dagster Labs has positively impacted our organization by making it much easier to create data pipelines, helping us create new use cases, and allowing us to transform all of the data we have into features, which Dagster Labs has greatly assisted with."
"Dagster Labs has provided a good sense of the data pipeline I have been using, and I have started to trust it even more because I have full confidence in whether it has been updated correctly and if it has failed."
"Dagster Labs has positively impacted my organization because whenever there is a change in the data, it becomes easy for me to schedule the job, run the changes, and make changes to be imported to the slowly changing dimension tables."
"As a product, it is one of the best I have had the pleasure to work with."
 

Cons

"Needs easier automated failure recovery, more and more intuitive auto-generated or filled-in code for components, and easier or more automated sync between CloverETL Designer and CloverETL Server."
"Its documentation could be improved.​"
"​Resource management: We typically run out of heap space, and even the allocation of high heap space does not seem to be enough.​"
"There are many ways Dagster Labs can be improved. I believe the UI is very slow and it prevents loading state."
"Dagster Labs is currently providing a Dagster University course, but those offerings are somewhat high-level."
"One major issue I see with Dagster Labs is with retrying the pipeline; of course, there is a retry of the pipeline available in case it fails, but it starts from the beginning at the first step."
"Additionally, the billing for Dagster Labs Cloud Plus is somewhat restrictive regarding the number of seats, which often pushes users towards the enterprise plan."
"I deducted two points because I faced some challenges working with the Git repository integration with Dagster Labs due to some security keys or some weird issue."
