The data catalog feature helps define data structures without storing data
The data catalog feature is valuable as it helps define data structures without storing data. Denodo's ability to connect to multiple data sources and perform extract-transform-load (ETL) operations on the fly is noteworthy. It supports API usage to call and present data in JSON or Tableau format without visualization capabilities.
Mohamed Moustafa - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good scalability, strong stability and seamless integration
The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive. It was a major plus. The integration process was smooth. Oracle's security is good and significantly better than that of other solutions I've encountered. Previously, we had separate data interfaces for 15 concrete mixing plants, requiring manual document creation in Oracle. Now, with integrated automation, production has become much easier and more efficient over the past three years.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are data lineage and the concept of a semantic layer."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The most valuable feature in Denodo is data virtualization."
"Data mining is one of the valuable features. We're able to connect all of the data sources with the installed driver, so that is a good advantage in Denodo. Being able to join the tables and view them is also valuable."
"Denodo provides high reliability, with features like vertical scaling, horizontal scaling, and failover nodes."
"The data catalog feature is valuable as it helps define data structures without storing data."
"Overall, the product works quite well and has a good set of features."
"We can consume data fast."
"The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive."
"This solution can maintain a large volume of data and is flexible to what data it can handle. The performance is very good."
 

Cons

"Denodo can improve usage management-related aspects. If you deal with the mini views, it gets stuck. The performance is very slow when we go with a large number of views and high volume."
"We can't scale it to meet digital requirements."
"While AI and ML integration is present, understanding its implementation better could be beneficial."
"Documentation needs to be improved"
"There are a couple of areas that can be improved in Denodo. From a stability point of view, sometimes we see issues in the data management functionality. This only happens now and then, however, and usually takes place when we add in our own customization."
"I would like to see a proper way to avoid killing the sourcing systems."
"There have been some issues when you are at a table. Currently, Denodo exports data sets for a tabular model. When you are finished modeling your database or data warehouse they export a link to be used in Tableau. They should support other tools like Power BI."
"It requires improving the story of how it can solve specific problems."
"The solution could improve by adding more advanced features."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost for Denodo is in line with other similar products."
"The licensing charges for this solution are payable annually."
"I don't know the actual cost, but it's tens of thousands of dollars per month."
"Cost wise, on a scale from one to five, with one being the cheapest and five being the most expensive, Denodo would be at three. We get all the features in a bundle."
"There is an express edition and a licensed enterprise edition."
"For us, the cost has been okay. Also, there are no additional costs; it's just the standard licensing fee."
"Depending on the size of the client you want to work with, it can be prohibitively expensive at times."
"The pricing is pretty good, and I would rate it at four out of five."
