Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 19, 2024

Pentaho Data Integration and Domo are competitive platforms in the data handling space. Pentaho seems to have the advantage in cost-effectiveness and open-source flexibility, while Domo shines in ease of use, seamless data connectors, and advanced dashboard capabilities.

Features: Pentaho supports a wide range of data sources and offers an intuitive ETL toolset, allowing rapid development without extensive coding. Its open-source nature provides flexibility and ease of learning. Domo offers seamless data connectors, fast setup, and allows users to create intuitive dashboards, which is valuable for visualizations and reporting.

Room for Improvement: Pentaho could enhance error logging, scheduling tools, and broaden native connector support. It also needs better integration with web-based solutions and programming languages. Domo faces challenges with ETL on large datasets, performance with complex reports, and limited customization in charting. Users also seek more advanced analytics and data governance features.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Pentaho is mainly on-premises, offering customization but requiring more setup, while Domo provides flexibility across public, private, and hybrid clouds. Pentaho has a large community support base but mixed reviews on formal support, whereas Domo offers comprehensive and costly customer service and technical support.

Pricing and ROI: Pentaho is cost-effective, with its free Community Edition appealing to those needing strong ETL capabilities at low costs. Domo, despite higher pricing, is valued for its robust features and convenience due to its subscription model and SaaS nature, leading to potentially higher total costs.

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

5.7

Domo users report efficiency and data visibility gains, though experiences with costs, functionality, and financial benefits vary significantly.

Sentiment score

7.4

Pentaho and Lumada integration improved efficiency, reduced costs, and enhanced decision-making speed, benefiting companies' competitiveness and project wins.

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.

I have seen a return on investment; my team was able to stay extremely small even though we had a lot of data integrations with many companies.

Michelle Lawson

Principal Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

I can testify to the return on investment with metrics regarding time saved; we have increased our efficiency by about 20 to 30 percent due to the swift migration processes facilitated by the tool.

AmolDhormare

Data Integration Developer at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees

I have noticed a return on investment with Pentaho Data Integration and Analytics in terms of time savings and staff reduction.

Domo customer service is responsive and knowledgeable, but resource challenges sometimes delay resolution, especially for smaller customers.

Sentiment score

5.1

Pentaho support experiences vary; some note effectiveness, others delays, with community forums often supplementing Enterprise's speedy ticket responses.

No matter how complex the problem is, it can be taken care of by the support team.

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.

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score

6.2

Domo excels in scalability and integration, supporting diverse businesses with real-time analytics despite potential cost concerns.

Sentiment score

7.2

Pentaho Data Integration offers good scalability for moderate datasets but struggles with large volumes and cloud architectures.

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.

Denis Mwaniki

Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks

When fetching files larger than 100 MB from SFTP or any other portal, Domo becomes slow due to the heavy file size.

It can be scaled well until you reach a point where you need to perform a lot of operations, and the issue arises when it runs out of memory to handle some data.

6.7

Users consider Domo stable with high uptime, efficient handling of large datasets, and quick resolution of maintenance issues.

In recent years, I haven't had such cases. It's quite stable and I don't have any reservations on its stability.

Denis Mwaniki

Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks

In terms of overall stability of the platform, it's very stable.

Dave Ramos

Performance issues arise due to reliance on a flowchart-based mechanism instead of scripts, which can lead to longer execution times.

I find that version 3.1 is the most stable version I have ever used.

Room For Improvement

Domo struggles with pricing, interface, and data issues, needing better visualizations, support, ETL, AI, and customization features.

Pentaho requires better cloud adaptability, scalability, real-time processing, modern UI, language support, performance, documentation, and environment compatibility.

End users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive.

reviewer2585304

Technical Project Manager at a educational organization with 201-500 employees

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.

reviewer2757087

Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees

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.

Denis Mwaniki

Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks

We should also explore more effective partitioning for parallel processing and fine-tuning database connections to reduce load times and improve ETL speed.

AmolDhormare

Data Integration Developer at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Pentaho Data Integration and Analytics can be improved by working with different environments, specifically the possibility to change the variables, meaning I write my variables only once and can change them for different environments such as production or development.

Alberto Pedro

Founder-CEO at Ubuntu Analytica

Pentaho Data Integration and Analytics could have real-time processing and automatic alerting, having alerts or automatic notifications when a job fails or when certain data doesn't meet certain rules.

Setup Cost

Domo offers flexible, negotiable pricing, often high but justified by integrated features, comparable to tools like Tableau.

Pentaho offers a cost-effective solution with appealing Community and Enterprise editions, maintaining positive sentiment despite some price increases.

Domo's pricing is high compared to other BI tools, and it is costly.

reviewer2757087

Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees

For long-time users, it can become expensive, but the trade-off is access to the entire platform instead of licensing different components separately.

Dave Ramos

Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a manufacturing company with 1-10 employees

They quoted approximately one dollar per KB.

Valuable Features

Domo provides user-friendly data transformation, real-time insights, and secure governance, ideal for large-scale deployments and efficient decision-making.

Pentaho offers intuitive data integration with broad connectivity, simplifying complex transformations and providing flexibility and automation across environments.

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.

Featured Reviews

Ruban Prasanna Dass SP

Assistant Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees

Have improved workflow efficiency through custom reports but encountered formatting limitations

The downsides of Domo are that we don't have a feature in the same column. When data comes in a time format, text format, and number format, we cannot segregate and create conditional formatting in that column. If in the future they develop this feature, it will benefit more users. Domo requires maintenance on my end, such as updates. I am maintaining some dashboards on a weekly basis and monthly basis daily reports. Because we need to upload in SFTP, we cannot schedule or auto-schedule due to rate purposes. We manually handle the data sets. If there were an option to reduce the cost, it would be easier to access.

Michelle Lawson

Principal Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

Streamlines complex data workflows and has supported automated customer payment notifications

I haven't used Pentaho Data Integration and Analytics in a couple of years, so I don't know how it can be improved. I was pretty pleased with it and was self-taught on it, working a lot with their team at various times, but they were surprised that I was able to learn it all by myself. The documentation is not bad, and documentation is the main thing that any product can do to make themselves better because the easier it is to find examples of what you're trying to do improves the learning curve. I think it took me the longest to learn how to do the asynchronous processing and have things wait for other things to finish processing before continuing on in the workflow. I choose 8 out of 10 because the one reason that it's been rejected at T-Mobile is that everything has to go through a provisioning process and has to get approved, meaning the actual code base has to be investigated by T-Mobile before they'll allow us to use tools of that nature. For whatever reason, we just haven't been able to get that approval; I don't know if it's on Pentaho Data Integration and Analytics' side or if it's on our side. The more you can make it easier for companies to feel comfortable that your product is secure, robustly tested and bug-free, and free of any other kind of negative hacks, the more quickly it will get accepted.
