Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We primarily use Dremio to create a data framework and a data queue.""Dremio gives you the ability to create services which do not require additional resources and sterilization.""Dremio enables you to manage changes more effectively than any other data warehouse platform. There are two things that come into play. One is data lineage. If you are looking at data in Dremio, you may want to know the source and what happened to it along the way or how it may have been transformed in the data pipeline to get to the point where you're consuming it.""Dremio allows querying the files I have on my block storage or object storage.""The most valuable feature of Dremio is it can sit on top of any other data storage, such as Amazon S3, Azure Data Factory, SGFS, or Hive. The memory competition is good. If you are running any kind of materialized view, you'd be running in memory.""Everyone uses Dremio in my company; some use it only for the analytics function."

More Dremio Pros →

"Good data management and analytics.""he solution is scalable.""The solution is very good for data mining or any mining issues.""I found the ease of use of the solution the most valuable. Additionally, other valuable features include: the user interface, power to extract data, compatibility with other technologies (specifically with PS400), and automation of several tasks.""The most valuable feature is that you can use multiple algorithms for creating models and then you can compare the results between them.""Most of the features, especially on the data analysis tool pack, are really good. The way they do clustering and output is great. You can do fairly elaborate outputs. The results, the ensembles, all of these, are fantastic.""The solution is able to handle quite large amounts of data beautifully.""The setup is straightforward. Deployment doesn't take more than 30 minutes."

Cons
"They have an automated tool for building SQL queries, so you don't need to know SQL. That interface works, but it could be more efficient in terms of the SQL generated from those things. It's going through some growing pains. There is so much value in tools like these for people with no SQL experience. Over time, Dermio will make these capabilities more accessible to users who aren't database people.""Dremio doesn't support the Delta connector. Dremio writes the IT support for Delta, but the support isn't great. There is definitely room for improvement.""We've faced a challenge with integrating Dremio and Databricks, specifically regarding authentication. It is not shaking hands very easily.""It shows errors sometimes.""Dremio takes a long time to execute large queries or the executing of correlated queries or nested queries. Additionally, the solution could improve if we could read data from the streaming pipelines or if it allowed us to create the ETL pipeline directly on top of it, similar to Snowflake.""I cannot use the recursive common table expression (CTE) in Dremio because the support page says it's currently unsupported."

More Dremio Cons →

"The user interface of the solution needs improvement. It needs to be more visual.""The initial setup is challenging if doing it for the first time.""The solution needs an easier interface for the user. The user experience isn't so easy for our clients.""The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies.""The ease of use can be improved. When you are new it seems a bit complex.""The visualization of the models is not very attractive, so the graphics should be improved.""The solution is much more complex than other options.""While I don't personally need tutorials, I can't say that it wouldn't be helpful for others to have some to help them navigate and operate the system."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Right now the cluster costs approximately $200,000 per month and is based on the volume of data we have."
  • "Dremio is less costly competitively to Snowflake or any other tool."
  • More Dremio Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
  • "The solution is expensive for an individual, but for an enterprise/institution (purchasing bulk licenses), it is not a high price for the use that will come from it."
  • "The solution must improve its licensing models."
