Ease of Implementation
What do you like best about the product?
Overall, since we brought in DataBricks, our ability to use DataScience and advacned analytics at scale has gone up 100 times. Our experience has been awesome, and I know we're not even pushing the bounds of what it can do
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall Databricks has worked well, though it has taken longer than we anticipated to get it up and running.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Frees up data scientists to do data science instead of fighting with cluster management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Provides support and solution that is not available in open source version. Good communication
Make Big Data Feel Small
What do you like best about the product?
The system architects data delivery in a very easy to use and intuitive way. Non-data-savvy individuals are able to access the insights that data can provide and the support around the product is 2nd to none!
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost is always a concern when working with a system like this, but if the organization can afford it the insights and ease of use are worth it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Similar to salesforce, we are able to sync are data from disperate systems and visualize in a single space
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to ask an individual their experience with the product and how they used it. The work to implement and create connections is often the most complicated part, not the analysis of the data itself.
Great Product for Analytics Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Databricks is my company's one stop shop for interacting with our expansive datasets. Databricks has been great so far for navigating our complex storage systems, accessing data, and being able to analyze it without having to switch programs. One of the best features of Databricks is that you can use a variety of languages within the program to complete all steps needed to fully use the data. I like being able to switch seamlessly between python, spark, and sql to work on big data sets.
Additionally, the formatting of the workbook is awesome. You can create new spaces below your original data view in order to perform the analysis.

What do you dislike about the product?
When using Databricks on a cloud-based server it is sometimes difficult to search through the folders and tables to find exactly what you need. I think it would be beneficial if they created an S3 browser to speed up this process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Databricks is helping our analytics group to sift through our mountains of data in order to create new and innovative products that paint a picture of client's customers (and beyond). Personally, I think this program saves a lot of time than having to work on data in silos based on the language you are working with.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When looking for a new program to access and query your data, look no further. Databricks is better than any SQL server I've used and allows you to utilize python, scala, and spark without having to waste any time changing workbooks.
