Overall Satisfaction with IBM watsonx.data

For fast and quick insights of the oncoming data. No SQL analysis, thanks to the GenAI feature so that we can query using natural language.

Apart from the NLP analysis, we often process documents to query from utilizing the RAG features. The vector databases works great on addition.

And lastly their insights on data warehouse performance for optimization.

Pros

  • Data analysis using natural language.
  • Data warehouse optimization via performance analysis
  • No hallucination RAG

Cons

  • Connecting data from more sources
  • Agentic LLM involvement in their product
  • Offer transparency with their RAG solution
  • Saves time on querying
  • Helps keep my warehouse optimized for queries
  • I can upload complex docs for hassle free understanding
9 because they have made analysis easier, tracks the performance of my data warehouse, help me keep it optimized, provide the Retrieval Augmented Generation features for complex documents and is pretty much hallucination free as compared to other products.
But, I think it can be a 10 if they automate a few more task by incorporating LLM agents to their products making it Top-10 data as a service
AstraDB was giving me vector database solutions, Retrieval Augmented Generation features and even Agentic workflows that IBM watsonx.data does not have currently. But the volume of data I've coming everyday and has to deal with everyday, can do anomaly detection just in plain English or monitor the performance of my warehouse, IBM watsonx.data does it all.

Do you think IBM watsonx.data delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with IBM watsonx.data's feature set?

Yes

Did IBM watsonx.data live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of IBM watsonx.data go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy IBM watsonx.data again?

Yes

Organizations where data is coming off everyday, each batch has to be analyzed. In this place, working with IBM watsonx.data can save some time querying the new data because of their natural language query feature.

The lesser appropriate will be for organizations that don't have a lot of data traffic or don't have a large database to call it a warehouse/ datalake.
