Ingest and Act on Data Faster
What do you like best about the product?
Starburst has empowered our team to take large data sets and really understand how those datasets will optimize our business model. Starburst has a UI that makes this process both easy and seamless as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Starburst's concept offers a straightforward approach toward obtaining helpful data in an ingestible way, at times the connectors/integrations do not work as expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For our team, we encounter large lead lists and analytics on performances by our teams, partners, and affiliates. Starburst allows us to identify areas of both strength and weakness that we previously would spend hours sifting through to understand.

Great Product
What do you like best about the product?
We have found that Starburst Enterprise is very easy to deploy, use and administer. The tool has many connectors and can run queries across multiple data sources which power all our ad-hoc analyses from various teams. The support systems are very helpful and the case response time is quite low and resulting in faster resolution.
What do you dislike about the product?
We ran into issues during the upgrade due to some undocumented breaking changes that affected our timelines. Maybe a way to administer adding or removing data catalogs without restarting the cluster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enterprise connectors allow us to easily connect legacy source systems to our modern ones. Starburst Support is extremely helpful and knowledgeable with very technical questions Starburst product features continue to impress, such as Insights and Galaxy, and the integration capabilities are very strong

Zalando is a very happy customer of Starburst Enterprise for the last 3 years
What do you like best about the product?
We have found that Starburst Enterprise that is built on the open source Trino project is very easy to use and administer. The default setup and the fact that SEP is choosing the right JVM and cluster configuration based on the hardware setup we use automatically makes it very easy to use for our workload and has very high performance. The response times of the support cases are very low and result fast in resolution. For critical issues, we can get support from the Trino contributors
What do you dislike about the product?
release management is lacking. We were hit by some undocumented breaking changes in the Trino open source project and Starburst Enterprise deployment model that affected our timelines in the past.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Starburst powers the serving layer of Zalando's data lake on S3. We have more than thousand internal users and 100s of applications using Starburst daily, running 30k+ queries that are processing half a petabyte per day. Starburst is connected to many different BI tools that power dashboards and drive Zalando's business and internal KPIs
Starburst Enterprise deployment
What do you like best about the product?
The customer success team (Technical Account Team) are super helpful. The Starburst tool has many connectors and supports industry-standard tools like DBeaver and DBVisualizer so it's easy for customers to use to realize value almost immediately. It speeds up the analytics up to 80% so ad-hoc queries can be performed quickly and efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
The amount of customization needed to achieve optimal settings. Paying for the technical account manager is a must to achieve optimal efficiency for the tool. Support is helpful but they don't understand all the customization that's done so that's where TAM will provide additional value.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our big data environment is slow and Hive performance is inadequate. Starburst speeds up the query speed for our customer base (>100 analysts) up to 80% and also allow customers to perform cross-platform queries (Big Data and SQL Server) together without having to copy data.
