    I am working in a medical device company and we require a large amount of data to analyze. Handling large amounts of data using this tool is very easy and the user interface is easy and simple to navigate. Earlier we used to use excel and text files to extract the data but now using this tool we have improved in transforming the data.

    Usability
    data.world
    It's a very user-friendly platform for those familiar with database concepts and SQL. Documentation is extensive but for those with no prior knowledge it can be daunting. The lack of ability to organize queries and datasets by category can also be frustrating and sometimes difficult to navigate.

    To improve the business process outcomes we have purchased this tool. By using this tool data preparation is easy and much [more] flexible and I would suggest [it as] a good option to try. As it is built with powerful AI and supports as large datasets as we can get without any reduction in performance.
