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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Denodo is the backbone for the BU I'm working for."
"Access to numerous forums and internet information."
"Denodo makes it easy to export data as a service or data link to other services."
"It is a go-to tool for data virtualization. The virtualization and data catalog are the features of why we chose Denodo."
"The most valuable feature in Denodo is data virtualization."
"In general, it's good for us to make tests so we can scout the data."
"The logical data warehouse functionality is fantastic. It truly stands out. The ClearOptimizer and Virtual Cache are great features. They work together seamlessly to optimize performance."
"It is a very stable solution."
"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."
 

Cons

"We occasionally have some integration issues that we need to work through."
"The support is not the best and should be improved."
"The stability of the features can be improved."
"There have been some issues when you are at a table. Currently, Denodo exports data sets for a tabular model. When you are finished modeling your database or data warehouse they export a link to be used in Tableau. They should support other tools like Power BI."
"The git configuration really should be improved."
"The cache configuration is more complicated."
"It requires improving the story of how it can solve specific problems."
"Lacks integrations with AWS, GCP and the like."
"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing charges for this solution are payable annually."
"The pricing is pretty good, and I would rate it at four out of five."
"The cost for Denodo is in line with other similar products."
"Depending on the size of the client you want to work with, it can be prohibitively expensive at times."
"There is an express edition and a licensed enterprise edition."
"For us, the cost has been okay. Also, there are no additional costs; it's just the standard licensing fee."
"Talking with my manager and others, nobody has complained about the pricing so far which is a positive sign."
"The licensing should be improved, as the cost per connector is quite expensive."
