Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 19, 2024

Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
6.8
Denodo improved efficiency, ROI, decision-making, reduced churn, and increased loyalty, significantly enhancing data processing and systems replacement.
Sentiment score
5.8
Domo's impact varies widely; some report negative returns, while others achieve over 300% ROI through improved efficiency and decision-making.
If you're actually using Domo at a very limited case and you're being charged $20,000, we've seen ROI there, but once it goes really high, you really need to check your metrics and check your profit.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
7.2
Denodo's support is praised for responsiveness and expertise but criticized for slow bug fixes and lack of proactive engagement.
Sentiment score
6.7
Domo's customer and technical support is generally responsive but inconsistent, with room for improvement, especially for smaller clients.
They have a good methodology for learning how to use the tool.
Denodo's customer support team is very competent and responsive.
If we raise a ticket, it can be resolved or addressed within a reasonable time frame, so support is good.
They were quite professional and in around three to five working days, they had identified where they suspected there was an issue and I was able to fix it.
It's very easy to get technical support from Domo.
Support-wise, they are good.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.5
Denodo is scalable and integrates widely but may require additional management for performance and cost efficiency.
Sentiment score
6.3
Domo supports scalable growth and user expansion, despite challenges with large files and some performance issues at high volumes.
For huge data requests, it cannot scale automatically; admin action is required.
While the solution scales well on a single machine, I have doubts about its scalability when deployed as part of a Java component cluster.
Its complexity in configuring and the requirement to install different connectors for different sources affects its scalability.
The fact that you're able to easily identify the pipelines or flows that have errors, and it notifies you when you're building a pipeline where you can run previews and tell where to fix issues, is helpful.
When fetching files larger than 100 MB from SFTP or any other portal, Domo becomes slow due to the heavy file size.
Sigma, which is written for Snowflake, scales more easily than Domo.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.9
Denodo offers robust stability with minor bugs; high reliability improves in the latest version despite complex scenario challenges.
Sentiment score
6.8
Domo is reliable with 99% uptime; issues usually arise from external factors, not from Domo itself.
I would rate it nine out of ten because it is very reliable, always performing as expected.
If JVM does not function properly, it may cause Denodo to fail to connect to different sources.
In recent years, I haven't had such cases. It's quite stable and I don't have any reservations on its stability.
In terms of overall stability of the platform, it's very stable.
During that time, we faced issues from the project side as Domo was not visible in our portal.
 

Room For Improvement

The system needs comprehensive improvements in functionality, integration, support, UI, scalability, security, documentation, and external tool compatibility.
Domo needs improved usability, integration, and support, along with intuitive interfaces, flexible pricing, and advanced features for better user experience.
Ensuring data caching is up to date is critical.
Denodo needs better communication on how the product can be deployed for specific solutions.
The system has dependencies on other environments, like JVM, which can affect its performance.
End users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive.
Some technical aspects such as Beast Mode calculation could be improved in Domo, as it would provide more clarity and help in giving insights to clients or customer business team requirements.
One of the areas where we've had frustrations with Domo is the aesthetics. The aesthetics are quite limited compared to other BI tools such as Tableau and Power BI.
 

Setup Cost

Denodo pricing is costly, designed for large enterprises, with complex licensing and costs varying by customer needs.
Domo offers costly but comprehensive BI solutions with flexible pricing, valued for integrating multiple functions without extra infrastructure.
Denodo is considered pricey, limiting its use to large enterprises or government organizations that can afford its comprehensive setup.
Denodo's pricing is not affordable for small companies and is more suitable for medium to large enterprises.
Domo's pricing is high compared to other BI tools, and it is costly.
For long-time users, it can become expensive, but the trade-off is access to the entire platform instead of licensing different components separately.
They quoted approximately one dollar per KB.
 

Valuable Features

Denodo is praised for data virtualization, efficiently integrating and managing diverse sources with strong security, introspection, and visualization.
Domo offers user-friendly tools for data transformation, visualization, and analytics, supporting scalability and diverse data source integration.
Denodo's ability to connect to multiple data sources and perform extract-transform-load (ETL) operations on the fly is noteworthy.
The most valuable feature of Denodo is its uniformity of self-site data access types, which allows it to connect to almost any storage technology and feed it transparently.
Denodo supports SQL base, so if you want to join two tables or two views, you can use SQL, which is an advantage as most developers or business people know SQL.
App Studio is valuable because it allows all the customization we needed; we can decode it, with the view and grid which are all I need, drill-downs, and everything can be done the way I need it.
I have been using it for four years and have been able to extract the information I need from it.
The most valuable feature of Domo is the fact that you can connect multiple inputs and you don't have to have a data warehouse.

Featured Reviews

Atanu Chatterjee - PeerSpot reviewer
Data virtualization and integration enabled while caching and scalability room for improvement
In terms of improvements for Denodo, regarding performance, 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. This occurs because it is cascading; whenever at the top level someone is reading data, that request is getting cascaded to the nth level, causing issues, especially in cases such as Power BI reports. We need to consider implementing some persistent layer in between. The scaling process should improve because many things are getting automated. The scale-out part needs to be automated, though I am uncertain whether Denodo has already implemented that feature.
Dave Ramos - PeerSpot reviewer
Has enabled me to integrate AI workflows and drive self-service analytics across organizations
There's room for improvement in their focus on enterprise clients. As a small business owner, there's nothing as powerful as Domo available for smaller organizations. I understand it's a business focus for them as they're looking to expand in that direction, but there's an opportunity to capture the SMB market by creating more capabilities. It's not necessarily about technical capabilities, but rather pricing that's geared towards the small business market. Capability-wise, it's very robust. If I had to stretch, I would suggest more integrations to other common tools, such as Zapier and operational tools like Mailchimp, where you can build and extend ETL in a no-code environment. While there are capabilities you can build from Domo's open APIs, having more native integrations in a no-code, low-code environment would be beneficial. Domo has many native integrations, but better tools for the SMB operational pipeline would be valuable.
