Considered Both Products	DataStax Enterprise Verified User C-Level Executive Chose DataStax Enterprise I believe DataStax Enterprise is the best in class. There are some things that are different with the schema-less systems but I found DataStax Enterprise easiest to implement while evaluating. The replication is on par or better than others in practice. We are evaluating … Helpful? Julian Chultarsky Principal Technologist Chose DataStax Enterprise DataStax Enterprise offered best-in-class write performance and scalability.

Verified User Employee Chose DataStax Enterprise DataStax has an amazing community built around it and is also Cassandra is an open-source technology. The customer support is quite good compared to other vendors. Though you initially need to spend some hefty amount on infrastructure, in the long run, it makes up for it. We … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	DataStax Enterprise
Likelihood to Recommend	DataStax Real-time transaction processing (both reads and writes) is where DataStax Enterprise shines. It's very fast with linear scalability should more resources be needed. Additional nodes are added very easily. DataStax Enterprise on its own (without Solr or Spark enabled) isn't well suited for long complicated reports. The data model doesn't support joining multiple tables together which is common in BI reporting. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	DataStax Datastax Cassandra provides high availability and good performance for a database. It is built on top of open source Apache Cassandra so you can always somewhat understand the internal functioning and why. Datastax Cassandra is fairly simple to start using, you can install/setup your cluster and be productive in 1 day. Datastax Cassandra provides a lot of good detailed documentation, and when starting, the detailed free videos on the Datastax site and documentation are very helpful. Datastax Enterprise Edition of Cassandra provides more tools, good support, and quick response SLA for enterprise business support. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Likelihood to Renew	DataStax We will continue to use it because it scales well with commodity hardware and we are satisfied with the documentation and support. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	DataStax There is a bit of a learning curve and tasks that are simple in traditional RDBMS systems can be complicated with DataStax Enterprise but once you get the hang of denormalizing data and getting the data model correct DataStax Enterprise is very usable. Usability from the developer's standpoint is very simple - the complication is on the architecture side with the data model. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
