Featured Reviews

Sumit  Chakraborty - PeerSpot reviewer
Fast installation, reliable, with proven results for small to mid-size companies
The scalability is excellent. We have input close to fifty billion rows in Domo, and this is where we saw the cards winded in pretty slowly. So we had a performance issue there, but say maximum up to twenty-five to thirty billion, this product is flawless. But when we talk about big data analytics with too many self-service components, this is where we see some performance depreciation. We have more than two hundred using the solution.
Costin Marzea - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows you to develop your own components and can be used as an OEM
Sometimes, scalability is part of planning. It depends on what you mean by scalability. People talk a lot about it, but scalability is not always about system functionality. Sometimes, it may be planning the job you're doing. If you want to split it into several jobs or servers, you don't actually have to have it built in as a functionality. You can create a job using a loop, which runs and controls several jobs in a loop that may be controlled. Scaling should not always be part of the infrastructure based on whether the engine can scale or not. I think it's your plan or project that should scale and split, and you can define these parameters. These parameters include how many servers you want to run or how many executions you want to do on different parts of the data. It's not always an issue of the engine running. Sometimes, your database should be configured to support partitioning. The product may scale very well without partitioning, but if the basic response is very slow, you didn't solve the problem. You should solve the problems at a higher level, not just at the execution level. They should be solved at the database level and communication level, and you should have firewalls. We are trying to add to the open source the ability to generate code for containers and Kubernetes that exist in the subscription version. Once you do this, Kubernetes will take care of the scaling, so there is no problem.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Domo has a lot of connections using APIs where you can use data from different databases, such as NoSQLs, SQL databases, and other connections. These connections exist to obtain data and transform whatever that you want."
"The data certification feature, where the admin user can put a certified stamp on a data source so that other users can know that that is the correct and accurate data flow or data source to use, is a good feature."
"Domo's real-time insights and customizable alerts are one of their better features."
"I mostly see it as an ETL which has many system connectors. It does a good job of ETL."
"The dashboarding itself was pretty easy. So both the front and the back end were positive in this case."
"This solution allows us to change our performance metrics and tracks our goals in real-time."
"Using the "cards" which function as preconfigured reports or views. I use many of them simultaneously on an organized page, with filters that allow me to see high-level information as well as subsets across the dataset, in a few clicks. Many Excel-challenged users love to use this product for its simplicity."
"It has the best GUI. And it already has an ETL tool embedded in it..."
"Open Studio's best features are that it's user-friendly, even for beginners, and very easy to implement."
"The most valuable features are the ETL tools."
"This is a user-friendly solution that is easy to use."
"We're able to handle large amounts of data with ease."
"Talend Studio has the ability to use it to ensure data quality."
"The most valuable features of Talend Open Studio are customization and integration."
"The most valuable feature of Talend Open Studio is the tMap component. There is a lot of functionality in one component."
"The best thing I have found with Talend Open Studio is their major support for the lookups."
 

Cons

"If your ETL runs more than 24 hours, it always fails because we are logging a lot of historical data, and there is a restriction on the amount of data (in rows) that you can run. The technical support has not found a solution for this yet."
"In Tableau, you can create virtually any kind of visualization. Based on your creativity, you can create a visualization on a human body structure, you can create a visualization on anything that you want. But Domo is limited to a few kinds of visualization views: standard things like bar, pie, and some other charts... I would like to see them add new views for presenting the data in the visualization space."
"Data integration is okay, but not the best."
"I would like to see more flexibility in their pricing structure. The trend is moving from database pricing to a user-license pricing model. That would be a benefit if they wanted to reevaluate their pricing structure."
"They should include service-based reporting features."
"I would like to see better data intake."
"I would also like to see improvements to their drag and drop Magic ETL tool. You can drag and drop your ETL tool, but it doesn't really work for a large amount of data. It struggles with that. In a real-world application, where you're working with 30 million rows or 100 million rows, it takes a bit longer to process the data. If you do it in the Redshift ETL tool, using your own code, it's much faster."
"Domo or any other BI tool has room for improvement, in particular, in the calculations. User-guided material isn't available for calculations. The tool, though user-friendly, could also be more customizable, especially when you're building a dashboard. Data integration could also be improved in Domo because even if the tool connects to multiple data sources, some hiccups still arise and need to be addressed."
"The physical appearance of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement."
"We need more components to be more efficient. We use a lot of components, such as Salesforce, and it's not easy to use. There's are minor bugs and it's not easy to use some of the features."
"When faced with a challenge, such as the necessity to link up with an unconventional data source like the legacy Cyprus Vision database that wasn't inherently supported by Talend, I had to resort to writing Python code to establish the connection."
"In the next release, Open Studio should include cloud storage as an input."
"The security features could be improved."
"The user interface could be made simpler."
"The price for Talend Data Integration should be less expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are making money from Domo, and all our clients are happy with the information that they receive from it."
"It is on the pricier end."
"The solution is expensive compared to one of its competitors."
"No matter if you're a developer or an end-user, the licensing cost is around $12 per user per month."
"I believe that the investment in Domo was worthwhile because it allowed for the organization to jump in quickly, with little training. There are different plans available based on the requirements."
"Domo is slightly costly but it's much cheaper than some."
"I'm not sure about pricing, but I believe Domo is quite costly. Prior to joining this organization, I had a Domo license with my former employer and I think that license was around $500 to $600 annually. That was for a single license. I think it varies, depending on the organization that is acquiring Domo."
"It started out at about $600 a seat. However, then as we started to grow, it scaled that down to about $330 or 3$50 a seat, if I'm not mistaken."
"Pricing is always a challenge. It is quite an expensive model, but because the platform is so simple to use, we haven't had to purchase any additional licenses."
"The cost, particularly in Africa, is quite high."
"Price could be lower. It is getting too expensive when compared to some other solutions, which is actually a little bit concerning."
"Right now, because we're using the open-source version, there's no cost."
"I am using the open-source version and it is free."
"For Talend Open Studio, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing cost. Talend Open Studio is a bit expensive, in my opinion."
"The paid version of this solution has a very high price, but even with the limitations, the Community version works fine."
"The cost for one year for the ETL tools, not for the big data, is 6K per year. It is a good price."
