What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation inside the portal isn't the best, find better support outside with search engines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently data transformation as it provides easy access to databases or blobs and the ability to use a language such as python to build up the solution you need is great.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool for developing when looking for a fast result as it uses distributed programming by the usage of different clusters.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Sometimes it take much time to load the Spark notebook.
2. Sometimes having issues with interpreter settings while running the notebook.
2. Sometimes having issues with interpreter settings while running the notebook.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Big data - Analyzing large datasets.
Makes building Spark applications a lot easier
What do you like best about the product?
It's like a Jupyter notebook but a lot more powerful and flexible. You can easily switch from Python to SQL to Scala from one cell to the next. With the Spark framework, you can preview your data processing tasks without having to build large intermediate tables.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need better support when it comes to troubleshooting spark applications. It shows a lot of information, but gives you little sense of how to apply it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do a lot of large scale data processing applications. Previously we used databases, but this is more flexible and powerful (and cheap).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great if you already understand Spark. Otherwise, Spark has quite a learning curve.
Its the Databricks show!
What do you like best about the product?
It has significantly improves its performance with the Databricks Inout and Ouput Module. WIth better support for spark, it combines well with Microsoft Azure and Amazon AWS. It has faster execution and faster read write processes in its version 5.
What do you dislike about the product?
A few schema related queries are still on the slower side considering huge data clusters and the processing involved for those clusters.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It runs on the clusters of machines managed by Databricks which gives us the assurance to manage data in a distributed manner. It includes Spark and adds a number of components and updates to performa big data analytics and data processing. It's parallel processing in RDD's is amazing.
Great product for uncovering data insights but not made for team projects
What do you like best about the product?
You can sync data from different systems all onto this one platform and everything can be analyzed without switching programs since you can also use many different programming languages and reap the benefits of each such as SQL and Python. This makes it so much easier to work with large datasets. Very nice user interface too!
What do you dislike about the product?
Very difficult to collaborate on projects using Databricks, it is its biggest downfall and in fact just almost outweighs the benefits. I also don't think their customer support is the best, have had some challenges with that. Otherwise a very good product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great way to uncover data insights easily from large datasets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep in mind that you cannot collaborate on products. Technical support is also not the best!
Awesome Experience
What do you like best about the product?
This is really a nice user friendly platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not found any glitches. It is really good.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes
An easy way to quickly and efficiently analyze data
What do you like best about the product?
I love how accurate and quick databricks is. Once I started working with databricks, I couldn’t fathom doing data analyzation and comparisons without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software is not the cheapest on the market and that detracts funds that could go elsewhere throughout the hospital. However, databricks continues to be a great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multiple forms of data analysis along with demographics and data comparison implementations.
Easy to get started with big data
What do you like best about the product?
Helpful online resources. Easy to get started
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough documentation. Not enough examples
