Served our customers better by giving real-time suggestions and proactive maintenance, however the UI was not interactive
* The UI was not interactive: Responses used to be very slow and hang up at times. * The UI was not really helping to track the real-time jobs and its logs. * You can bring in a better UI for job management and health checks. * Developer API documentation needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The built-in smart analytic tools are the most valuable features for me."
"Datameer has around 400 inbuilt functions that are very useful for any beginner and also it has a good visualization which helps end user to see that how the trend is showing."
"Customer Service: It's very good."
"The most valuable feature are the data transformation functions in the workbook."
"This helped us to serve our customers better by giving real-time suggestions and proactive maintenance."
"It gives us the option of extending our analytics system."
"InfoSphere Streams was the one core product from the platform in which we were using. We were building a real-time response system and we built it on InfoSphere Streams."
"This is a very helpful product, with continuous improvements by IBM and a great customer service which enables easy access to valuable information for both Hadoop developers and system administrators."
"Watson is the perfect engine for text analysis for us, but in 2014 it doesn’t support the Russian language."
"Definitely a product worth evaluating, esp if you are an IBM shop and if done on Bluemix, it gives a jump start on protoypes/POCs."
"It integrates with JSqsh, enabling us to submit long-running exports from the shell."
"The thing that I have found most valuable in this solution is the BIQSQL implementation which is fully SQL ANSI compliant."
 

Cons

"It needs better integration with other enterprise technologies out of the box."
"Although this tool is very good, it has some limitations that I think could be removed in later versions."
"It is a good tool from an analysis perspective, but is not suitable for IT."
"When I run the single license on my MacBook Pro, the memory space can be an issue."
"I'd like to see faster execution time, especially for simple queries that don't touch on many rows and don't involve many operations (Joins, Unions, Groupbys)."
"The UI was not interactive: Responses used to be very slow and hang up at times."
"For our business customer pricing is very important motivation, so I can advise change licensing policy from “by volume in the cluster” to “number of machines in the cluster”."
"I have found a lot of issues in Fluid Query and BigInsights Applications to move data in the enterprise version."
"Initial setup is rather complex in comparison with Cloudera."
"Unfortunately the stability of the platform was an issue."
"I encountered issues with having the appropriate documentation resources, as well as getting the right stability when explored virtualized environments based on Virtualbox and HyperV software."
