Datameer vs. SAP Agile Data Preparation

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

SAP Agile Data Preparation is well suited for an organization with loads of data where data can be transformed, analyzed and shared on a single click. Thus, the software is well suited for organization which have intense data working. Further, the software is not suited for small/medium organization as there data would be comparatively less and they may not be able to afford the software.

• 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.

• Centralized data storage, monitoring, and constant refreshes, as well as synchronization of global data are helping supply chain members reduce risk and secure stronger contracts.
• SAP empowers its users for successful data management by providing very easy-to-use tools which allow one to access, manipulate, and update a ton of data.
• SAP allows you to create data with having technical programming skills

• 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.

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

Easy to use for most things, starts to require some planning as your projects get more complex.

I have no had any major issues, just a couple minor ones.

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.

Our organization chose SAP Agile Data Preparation because of its brand name and the pricing. The software was feasible for the organization as it provides loads of feature as compared to other software's at a reasonable price. Additionally, SAP Agile Data Preparation is powered by SAP HANA so that is a prerequisite to data preparation freedom. Also, at the implementation stage the software was working really efficiently in terms of features, durability and performance.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Data management for large community has been increased
• Easy to collaborate with relevant stakeholders
• Smart and user-friendly interface
• Data sharing feature with excel, spreadsheet etc
