A true game changer for many data querying processes
What do you like best about the product?
One point worth considering is that Starburst is designed to work with various data sources which means that data processing is a lot easier. The plethora of features it has especially on querying large is quite helpful in enhancing our work progression. We have connected it to other applications such as our BI tools and the data lake and no problems have arisen from it. This integration capability is a game changer because it eliminates the difficulty in managing data from multiple sources thus enhancing our workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, the main drawback of Starburst is that it is not very easy to set up, particularly for first time users. This resulted in some discrepancies in our work schedule as we anticipated in our project plan. Furthermore, owing to our rarity in its application, it took extra time to familiarise ourselves with it. The customer support is also not up to the mark at some times, they take more time to reply and on occasions this delay has messed up our working schedule as we needed immediate help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has been advantageous for Starburst to revolutionize the case of managing data across multiple sources. Before, on the other hand, acquiring data was quite a task and made our operations very slow. Now with Starburst, I can query the data from different platforms without moving and this has enhanced our working rate and decision making processes. Besides, it has positively influenced our team’s efficiency and helped to prioritize more important strategies rather than spending time on such matters as data processing.
We fixed many issues with efficient data access and querying solution
What do you like best about the product?
I personally favor Starburst for its enhancement on the query aspect and the numerous features it brings to the table. The ability to work with several sources at once is very useful and simplifies the process of querying data a lot. It has many features and I like that I can always get help from customer support when I need something explained to me. It has only been used more frequenlty in our team due the reliable and fast results it produces making it one of the most useful tools in the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing that I do not like with regards to Starburst is the fact that its interfaces are very confusing. Many of its features are not immediately obvious and can be confusing to a new user, therefore, making it take a steep learning curve. These make our onboarding time consuming occasionally leading to usage blunders. In addition, documentation is not as detailed as they ought to be, making it hard to address problems as soon as possible. These problems contribute to the decreased productivity and longer time taken to train new employees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Starburst addresses the problem of organizing data available from various sources and querying them. Indeed it has eased our working by providing insights which enable us to make good decisions within shorter time. To me and my colleagues, it translates as less time on waiting for data and more time conducting data analysis. This efficiency helps us in managing our projects better and complete our work in the time that is set for it. The compatibility with other software creates a strong and well coordinated environment in data processes.
Discover the ultimate solution for data querying
What do you like best about the product?
One thing that strikes me about Starburst is that it can issue queries across many different sources of data quickly without having to stream the data about. This has reduced my time to prepare the data and our efficiency has improved greatly as a result. Besides, the customer support is great, they are always available when we have issues. The software work is rather efficient and is not fraught with failures or crashes, thus, our tasks are solved effectively.
What do you dislike about the product?
One disadvantage apparent with Starburst is that, it is quite complex to set up and this needed a lot of time and technicality to accomplish. This affected us in the sense that it slowed down our productivity especially in starting the activities of the day. Furthermore, the large number of features is a bit challenging for newcomers and may increase the time learners need to understand the product fully. These challenges we identified delayed our first implementation and training cycles.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Starburst makes the challenge of data fragmentation easier to address because we are able to query the data across different sources and types without the need to move the data. This has enhanced the data availability and also cut the time taken in data integration mechanism drastically. Besides, it adds value to our team since there is an opportunity to perform analyses and provide reports that contribute to faster decision making.
Now our management of complex queries is super simple!
What do you like best about the product?
The most valuable use of Starburst for our team is the centralization of different data sources to combine them in one place to execute queries. This consolidation has clearly eradicated the problem of having to deal with numerous data store houses and has made our analytical exercises easy and effective. There is seamless compatibility of this tool with other business inteligence tools we are already using in our organization, thus we were able to refine our other applications. These improvements have been made possible by the harmonious integration of these separated processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue I have with Starburst is the latency that comes with it especially when working with big data. Such a delay can compromise our data analysis processes and decrease the business’s operational productivity. However, it should also be mentioned that the initial setup process was long and required a lot of efforts and deep technical knowledge. Such difficulties have at times required delaying certain projects thus making it hard to stick to strict timelines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overall, I have found Starburst as a perfect fit to address our data fragmentation issues since I don’t have to replicate data into my data marts before querying them. It has enhanced the automation of our data collection process and analysis which has made it easier to make better decisions in a shorter time. Incorporation with some of our previous tools has enhanced our working efficiency by providing an idea about our data as a whole, which was very challenging to consider beforehand.
The best ever data lake analytics platform to discover, organize, consume data & data processing.
What do you like best about the product?
In starburst we can be able to understand the memory usage, CPU usage, Top Users and total number of failed and succeeded queries using the graphical view at the same time, easy to use tool for data analytics, data engineering, data science. although we can use cloud storage utilization to provide elasticity. it provide fastetst & efficient analytic engine for data warehouse, data lake, data mesh. can also check the queries details according to the date wise – where we can see the cluster size, memory, CPU usage and queued queries.
What do you dislike about the product?
Charges applies high but the product is good, I've never seen any drawbacks till now since i'm using in my current project in Gilead.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sometime if i'm querying for lacks of data it hits me an error, sometime URL's doesn't work, however we get support team immedeatly to sort out the issue in Dev, Test, Production environment quickly but it often happes twice or trice in a month, should be improved.
Supporting, tunning multiple workloads in production
What do you like best about the product?
Great support, awnser every question, very fast awnsers for first request. Great product, meet almost all ours needs. Delivery high quality and very acurate. It needs to improve on some points, but nothing that discredits or leaves something to be desired.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime we expirienced some delay in ticket loop. Should invest efforts to make some features toggleable, make it more flexible. FTE, mult-tenant, and add some query history in console, with statistics , would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After we make starburst (trino) available to all company members, changed the way they see data. Due to the nature of Trino it can connect to multiple databases/datastores we have no more delays to delivery information.
