dbt on steroids
What do you like best about the product?
Complete user interface, with lots of thoughtful details to help you get things done faster and get better visibility on your data transformations
Compared to dbt cloud, Y42 really helps me manage seamlessly different environments (prod & dev) for both my code and the data created by the code
Seamless transition form dbt
Easy to get started, whether you are used to dbt project management or not
Very reactive customer support, excellent communication regarding projects, challenges, bugs, updates
Excellent documentation
Great onboarding process (with the Y42 team and thanks to the "Get Started" menu embeded in the UI)

As an avid dbt user I enjoy the ease of data integration.
Makes it very easy to follow data engineering best practices and I'm absolutely confident this will only get easier.
When focusing on solely on transformations dbt is my favorite currently. The ease of data integration and incredible speed of their development team means I'd choose Y42 more often.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are only very few things I dislike about Y42.
- Pricing could become an issue as you scale, depending on the overall size of your DWH and corresponding workloads. Apparently, they want to review their pricing models, and I know them to be open to negotiation, though.
- As early adopters, we had to do multiple migrations due to fundamental overhauls of their product. However, with V3, I think that risk is minimized and updates should no longer be that fundamental.

A solution that helps me easily automate all my data pipelines.
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is super didactic and simple to use, and at the same time powerful.
The new version came with great new features, like the possibility to use jinja, it helps us a lot in data manipulation. We are looking forward to testing the publish module with cube.dev.
-
Another point that I could not fail to comment on is the quality of the support offered, the support team is very agile and willing to help.

What do you dislike about the product?
No dislikes at the moment.
All the integrations we need are in the tool, the modeling is easy to use and the orchestration even easier.
A possible improvement could be the creation of a module for reverse ETL, such as sending json to rudderstack.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of our biggest challenges that made us look for Y42 was the creation of a reliable and simple-to-use pipeline to identify the behavior of our customers, from capturing it on Google, Facebook or Rudderstack to mapping the consumption profile, creating metrics and developing a reverse ETL.
Great product and great support
What do you like best about the product?
Y42 was great in letting us stitch together our multiple data sources. It also helped us with running automated scripts that updated our data, our analytics, and even exported and updated insights into a Google Sheets. The customer support was great as well
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface to create dashboard and to query data was daunting at first and sometimes unintuitive but after getting used to it, was easy to use. Also wished it supported more db services but I was told that is coming soon
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want to have analytics - which include charts and tables and other resources - that are built upon multiple data sources. We also have scripts that we want to run periodically. Y42 helps end-to-end in a single product
Y42 helped us consolidating all of our BI needs in one Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Y42 offers us not only a way to consolidate data from different data sources in a single place, but also to create data models that represent data in a meaningful way. On top of that their Customer Success team is always available and provides quick solutions for blockers with their dev-team, or where needed, interim solutions until a technical implementation can be realized.
What do you dislike about the product?
While the tool is in an amazing state right now from a pure BI perspective, the usability for end users can sometimes still be challenging and has a certain learning curve to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Y42 helps us, to consolidate data, modal it in a meaningful way, and create powerful visualizations out of it, which can then be distributed to certain people or whole teams in our organization, as live data reports.
