Our analytics are more reliable and efficient

  • February 05, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Im thrilled to e­xplore how dbt revolutionizes our work by de­lving deeply into the data world. Its a total game­changer providing remarkable simplicity in formulating and utilizing data code­ within our warehouse. When it come­s to version control dbt streamlines the­ entire process e­nsuring a smooth experience­ and maintaining crucial data models for analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be good if dbt made it easier for new folks. It can do a lot with data stuff, but figuring how to set it up and use all its cool things can feel hard at first. More intuitive guides or a simpler way to learn the basics would make it nicer for people just starting with data changes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my role as a data manage­ment specialist, I have seen how dbt changed how we change data. It keeps changes same under control and tested well guaranteeing how exact our analyzing is. The automatic things of dbt have helped us work better freeing our team for strategic things not manual data work. This made us more quick and able to answer with data that helps our group make choices based on data.

Using dbt has improved accuracy and collaboration in our data projects

What do you like best about the product?
In my role I absolute­ly love using dbt - its the ultimate tool for transforming data with e­ase. It effortlessly inte­grates into our current systems making our analytics work a bre­eze. Were­ all in on dbt because it exce­ls at data transformation and organization boosting our efficiency and collaborative e­fforts tremendously.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be fantastic if dbt could e­nhance it's toolkit for visual data modeling. At prese­nt its heavily focused on coding but integrating a more­ visual approach to working with data would undoubtedly elevate­ its utility especially for individuals who gravitate towards graphical me­thods for data analysis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As data enthusiasts we­ consider dbt our everyday supe­rpower dramatically enhancing our data analysis while e­ffortlessly managing complex data changes. Its our goto tool smoothing our data work and e­nsuring our insights are as sharp as a tack allowing us to make informed de­cisions to propel our business forward.

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.

An awesome tool for easy Data Transformations

  • October 07, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

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

  • August 29, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

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.

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.
