What do you dislike about the product?
Would be nice to be able to set up several Snowflake connections for the same project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It reduces the hassle and the overhead around data pipeline automations. Makes it easy to keep a lean and mean team, yet have everything you need for a production data pipeline
DBT is a great tool that has saved our data team a lot of time.
What do you like best about the product?
Model creation and CI/CD are top features.
Thanks to DBT we have reduced the inconsistency of our data models and we reduced the number of manual tasks performed by the team.

What do you dislike about the product?
The documenting process could be improved.
Since we started using DBT, the load on our data warehouse has skyrocketed. Tools that optimize queries would be greatly appreciated.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use DBT for data consolidation and transformation. DBT is a key piece of our data infrastructure.
Every piece of information gathered from the different sources using fivetran is processed using DBT: from marketing events to information about our car's performance (we a car leasing company)

DBT
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud.dbt has proven to be an invaluable tool for our data modeling and analytics needs. Its seamless integration with cloud platforms, user-friendly interface, and robust features have significantly streamlined our workflow. The platform's automation capabilities have allowed our team to focus more on deriving insights from data rather than dealing with intricate modeling processes. The collaborative environment enhances team productivity, making it a standout solution for organizations aiming to elevate their data analytics game. I use it daily.

- SQl tests easy to write and for ETL using SQL
An awesome tool for easy Data Transformations
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best things about dbt is that because it's an Sql-based platform, anyone ranging from a Data Analayst to a Data Engineer can easily implement and deploy Data Pipelines. It provides integrations with any different data sources like postgres, Snowflake, Bigquery etc along with features like CI/CD and version control.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently dbt only focuses on the transformation aspect of a data pipeline. It can also focus on Data quality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
dbt has enabled engineers to write a data pipeline in an SQL based format instead of writing huge codes using the same big data technologies, thus enabling anyone on the data team to setup and build their own pipelines. It also provides its own cloud platform where we can run those jobs and get data as per request.
dbt for data pipelines
What do you like best about the product?
dbt is excellent due to its wide use of macros and the ability to transform data using SQL, an analyst-friendly language. Given this we can train analysts to read dbt and understand the logic behind our data transformations, limiting the amount of work we need to do explaining data decisions or documenting logic.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that dbt was more integrated with other data tools. It seems that a lot of data tools (fivetran, monte carlo, hightouch) are designed with dbt in mind but dbt never seems designed for these tools. It would be nice to have more accessibility within dbt, allowing us to create alerting and etl processes easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dbt allows us to transform data using SQL and then run this data daily to provide fresh data to analysts. With this data we are able to make business decisions ultimately impacting our bottom line. We also use dbt for minor tests to make sure our data is accurate and clean.
Data Scientist
What do you like best about the product?
DBT is an easy to use too for anyone who knows SQL. Their IDE is wonderful and you can easily spin it up in no time. As a Data Scientist, doing modelling in DBT saves me hours of work and helps me provide an opportunity to others to focus on a more self serve analytics
What do you dislike about the product?
DBT is a great tool but there are a few things missing from it. Direct connection to postgres SQL. Mixing of different sources and more convinent ways of build test and macros.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dbt helps us build models for a lot of different complex queries that get used. DBT helps us compile massive queries into tables or views and helps with the flow.
dbt infrastructure has helped us build a data warehouse with a firm foundation
What do you like best about the product?
I love it's self sustainability and the ease of implementation and documentation
What do you dislike about the product?
upgrading dbt versions is sometimes a hassle
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
dbt is making it possible to very specifically organize our data and make it very easily accessible
Good product to transform raw data and pipeline it to analytics and business needs
What do you like best about the product?
What I use the most is the documentation feature. It is very robust and complete, which helps me understand where the features I use daily come from and how they were built.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd say there is a learning curve to start using it which could be smoother. Some basic guidelines on the basics would help a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Understand how features from the tables are built
Makes data transformations easy to maintain
What do you like best about the product?
Maintaining data transformations are easy with SQL- and git-based workflow. Integrates nicely with Big Query.
What do you dislike about the product?
IDE is not perfect but improving. Git support lacks some basic functionalities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Maintaining our data pipelines is easier with dbt than other tools or techiques I've tried.
