It provides a positive return on investment for those who can connect multiple data sources and make data-driven decisions easily.
Information Technology Manager at Lockheed Martin
If you don't need to write a whole ETL to make the data virtualization, you need way fewer people to write a query instead of writing an ETL pipeline.
Senior Backend Engineer at a pharma/biotech company with 51-200 employees
I have seen a return on investment, which showed up in improved customer satisfaction scores.
Quality Engineering Lead at a logistics company with 51-200 employees
That cut down our pipeline maintenance and integration overhead by eighty to ninety percent, freeing us up to focus entirely on actual data analysis and building user-facing features.
Student at Raisoni Group
Previously it took me about a month to a month and a half to have a prototype of roughly five to ten screens. Now I can do it in about two to three days.
UX Designer at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees
We've got a project at the moment that we estimated the integration was going to be around $200,000 to $300,000, and we've been able to achieve the integration for less than a tenth of that, doing it in-house using Stitch.

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.9
Denodo support is responsive and helpful, but some users face delays in bug resolution and unfriendliness in the portal.

They have a good methodology for learning how to use the tool.
Data Architecture and Engineering Specialist at coprocenva
Denodo's customer support team is very competent and responsive.
Datawarehouse & BI consultant, Owner, Mananging partner at NesCon B.V.
If we raise a ticket, it can be resolved or addressed within a reasonable time frame, so support is good.
Principal Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
The best skill set they've got is that they know when the issue is outside of their knowledge, and they escalate really quickly so that we get to the right people when we need them.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
The platform actually has a very clear interface and a very good user experience.
UX Designer at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees
 

Scalability Issues

5.2
Stitch excels in scalability and data management but faces challenges with third-party connections and highly complex projects.
For huge data requests, it cannot scale automatically; admin action is required.
Principal Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Denodo's scalability comes into play specifically when there is data transfer.
Quality Engineering Lead at a logistics company with 51-200 employees
My client has almost 100 million records, and the performance was impacted in a way that required optimization.
Data Consultant at IT-Bots
I would advise that you should not use Stitch if you are going to build a big number of screens or a heavy UI application with complex designs because it is not ready for that kind of work.
Software Engineer trainee at Lng-consultancy
We just spin up a new server and add it into a cluster, and then it pretty much manages the load balancing across all the servers in the cluster.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
If you are using the cloud version, then definitely it is scalable for sure.
Senior Manager at pibythree
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.0
Denodo is stable and reliable in production, with minor issues, praised for robustness but needs technical expertise for optimization.

Software Engineer trainee at Lng-consultancy
 

Room For Improvement

Denodo should expand markets, improve UI and integration, address performance issues, and enhance support and documentation.
Stitch users want better support, integration, design consistency, clearer communication, adaptable pricing, and simpler integrations with Talend and Qlik.
Ensuring data caching is up to date is critical.
Director Software Engineer at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
Denodo needs better communication on how the product can be deployed for specific solutions.
Datawarehouse & BI consultant, Owner, Mananging partner at NesCon B.V.
The system has dependencies on other environments, like JVM, which can affect its performance.
Technology Leader at eTCaaS
Stitch cannot connect to all databases or third-party apps, such as Amazon Seller.
head of data at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
I saved a lot of time getting from having no design inspiration to having full-fledged designs.
Product Designer at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
I suggest developing a featured interface that is easier to use.
software developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
 

Setup Cost

Denodo pricing is high, suitable for larger enterprises, with variable costs and value-enhancing features, seen as fair by many.
Stitch has competitive pricing, though costs may rise with high data volumes and complicated licensing after merging with Talend.
For small companies, it's not a solution that most small companies can afford.
Senior Backend Engineer at a pharma/biotech company with 51-200 employees
Denodo is considered pricey, limiting its use to large enterprises or government organizations that can afford its comprehensive setup.
Datawarehouse & BI consultant, Owner, Mananging partner at NesCon B.V.
Denodo's pricing is not affordable for small companies and is more suitable for medium to large enterprises.
Technology Leader at eTCaaS
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is pretty easy, pretty straightforward, and the cheapest of them all.
head of data at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
The cost of the seats is actually cheaper by the amount of value that you're adding to the business.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
If you are using any ETL tool, they are too expensive.
Senior Manager at pibythree
 

Valuable Features

Denodo excels in data integration, virtualization, governance, and scalability, enhancing user experience with API and query optimizations.
Stitch provides ease of use, automation, and real-time insights, simplifying data management with pre-built connectors and schema handling.
Denodo's ability to connect to multiple data sources and perform extract-transform-load (ETL) operations on the fly is noteworthy.
Director Software Engineer at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
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.
Datawarehouse & BI consultant, Owner, Mananging partner at NesCon B.V.
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.
Principal Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
The image to HTML conversion helps me in my projects because it allows you to acquire professional designs without starting from scratch.
software developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
We take one week of time to design an application, but now we can design that application within two days, which is 16 hours.
UX lead at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
We can easily move and do time-to-market for a new pipeline and new integration, positively impacting our organization.

Information Technology Manager at Lockheed Martin
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.
Jason Hale - PeerSpot reviewer

Data team has transformed diverse environmental streams and now delivers real-time insights
The best thing that we've seen coming out of Stitch is the Talend and Qlik relationship becoming more of a single entity rather than two entities. A couple of years ago there was a distinction between Stitch and Qlik. The biggest challenge when we were dealing with both was that we felt like we were dealing with two different companies. They are quickly merging the two different entities into a single one, and by around the end of this year, they're planning to basically consolidate everything. Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together. It's not quite exactly one solution. That's probably the biggest negative at the moment. Each month we're seeing improvements in the cloud platform, and they're coming out with capabilities that we haven't even thought about that are going to make our lives easier. Probably the biggest negative they have is they're doing so much good stuff, but we don't know about it. It just appears and then we figure it out ourselves, but the communication of changes could be improved. However, the positives are that they're changing so much at the moment.
