Likelihood to Recommend Datameer is a great tool if someone is capable of keeping the most recent version of the tool up to date along with the most recent version of the distribution of Hadoop. The tool is easy to support but it must have someone who can run the back end processes
Read full review Presto is for interactive simple queries, where
Hive is for reliable processing. If you have a fact-dim join, presto is great..however for fact-fact joins presto is not the solution.. Presto is a great replacement for proprietary technology like
Vertica Read full review Pros It leverages scalability, flexibility and cost-effectiveness of hadoop to deliver an end-user focused analytic platform for big data without involvement of IT. It overcomes Hadoop`s complexity by providing GUI interface with pre-built functions across integration, analytics and data visualization . Excel feature is awesome for business users which is already provided by Datameer. Using datameer now user can do smart analytic using Decision Trees, Column dependency and recommendation. Recently HTML5 inclusion is making application to available on a wider range of devices, including the iPad and other mobile devices which does not support Flash. It can be used in premise or in a cloud computing environment. Wizard-based data integration designed for IT and business users to schedule and do transformation of large sets of structured, semi-structured and unstructured data without any knowledge of Hadoop ecosystem. Read full review Linking, embedding links and adding images is easy enough. Once you have become familiar with the interface, Presto becomes very quick & easy to use (but, you have to practice & repeat to know what you are doing - it is not as intuitive as one would hope). Organizing & design is fairly simple with click & drag parameters. Read full review Cons Concentration issues are possible while using a lot of tabs at once. In most cases, the length of a tutorial video is excessive. A more condensed design is certainly a viable option. Read full review Presto was not designed for large fact fact joins. This is by design as presto does not leverage disk and used memory for processing which in turn makes it fast.. However, this is a tradeoff..in an ideal world, people would like to use one system for all their use cases, and presto should get exhaustive by solving this problem. Resource allocation is not similar to YARN and presto has a priority queue based query resource allocation..so a query that takes long takes longer...this might be alleviated by giving some more control back to the user to define priority/override. UDF Support is not available in presto. You will have to write your own functions..while this is good for performance, it comes at a huge overhead of building exclusively for presto and not being interoperable with other systems like Hive, SparkSQL etc. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Employees with intermediate SQL and Hive knowledge can generate reports faster than using Datameer . It does have visualization tool but I don't think it is anything that cannot be accomplished by importing the data in Excel
Read full review Usability Easy to use for most things, starts to require some planning as your projects get more complex.

Read full review Alternatives Considered Pricing, support, and ease of use. We plan to scale up our data over the net few years and Datameer gives us all the things we need in one tool. Handles large transformations quickly and works with all the cloud data warehouses.
Datameer's per-user pricing sealed the deal for us as we plan to transfer much more data over the next few years. We looked at
Fivetran but the usage pricing discourages growth. We also looked at Informatica but it was too expensive and didn't work as well with other BI tools like Datameer does.
Read full review Presto is good for a templated design appeal. You cannot be too creative via this interface - but, the layout and options make the finalized visual product appealing to customers. The other design products I use are for different purposes and not really comparable to Presto.
Read full review Return on Investment We have not been able to reach our business objectives just yet. Hadoop its a hard sell in most companies still. Legacy skills are still highly on demand and as long as an easier path leverage SQL for example is available, it would be hard to gain more adoption. Read full review Presto has helped scale Uber's interactive data needs. We have migrated a lot out of proprietary tech like Vertica. Presto has helped build data driven applications on its stack than maintain a separate online/offline stack. Presto has helped us build data exploration tools by leveraging it's power of interactive and is immensely valuable for data scientists. Read full review ScreenShots
