Reseñas y detalles del producto de Elementary Data

This project combines a startup mindset with an open-source approach, thriving on feedback and continuously improving. Setting up a robust base for data observability is fast and efficient, thanks to their intuitive batch configuration system and dbt-native approach.

The UI is clean and user-friendly, but there’s room for improvement in making it easier to filter down and take action on alerts.

Also, I like the team's incredible spirit and commitment to improving the tool. They actively listen to feedback. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

The limited integrations with additional BI platforms and ticketing systems reduce the tool's flexibility and its ability to fit seamlessly into diverse workflows. Expanding these integrations would significantly enhance its versatility. Additionally, the UI filtering options could be more robust, enabling users to quickly identify and act on critical issues. Improving these areas would make the tool more efficient, adaptable, and user-friendly for a wider range of teams. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Flexibility of integration, particularly with dbt models and relevant datawarehouse adaptors; free CLI version that is good enough to start with and custom setup; Data Health score - recent release, measurement of data validity across 6 dimensions; column-lineage Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

The catalog solution is pretty raw, I would still invest in a separate mature data catalog solution. Some integrations (like with BI tools or GitHub) are depending on private keys, not newer, more public ways to authenticate (or at least I did not find).

Alerting behaviour should be adjusted to avoid alert fatigue, the default behaviour might not be applicable to the use case. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Elementary Data excels in simplifying the process of data quality monitoring. Its intuitive interface and seamless integration with modern data stack make it a standout tool. I particularly appreciate the anomaly detection and detailed insights it provides, which help identify and resolve data issues before they escalate. Additionally, the visual reporting dashboards are both user-friendly and highly informative, enabling stakeholders to quickly grasp key metrics without needing deep technical expertise.

I would say that some sections of the UI are not clear enough and I hope Metrics feature and their automatic anomaly detection could improve soon, but so far I am very confortable with the tool. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

As a data consultant, I work with several customers who demand high data quality for their data platforms. Elementary is a critical part of features that I can provide to meet those expectations. The combination of compiling dbt dag logs and powerful anomaly detection based in statistics makes it a perfect choice for data teams of all sizes Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Since Elementary demands integration with only dbt, it may not always be the best fit for teams with lower data maturity levels or teams that don't use dbt as a main data transformation tool. In such cases, foundational issues need to be addressed before leveraging a tool like dbt and Elementary. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Elementary Cloud se destaca por su facilidad de uso y proporciona pruebas automatizadas que cubren aspectos clave como volumen, frescura y esquema. La configuración de pruebas a través de la interfaz de usuario simplifica la colaboración y reduce la complejidad técnica. La trazabilidad de datos a nivel de campo es particularmente valiosa para evaluar impactos y resolver incidentes de manera eficiente. Las alertas de Slack están bien diseñadas y son configurables, lo que facilita notificar a las partes interesadas y mejorar la fiabilidad de los datos. Además, la integración con Looker añade un valor significativo a los flujos de trabajo de análisis de datos. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Aunque es una herramienta robusta, algunos procesos, como la modificación de pruebas y la generación de solicitudes de extracción, podrían ser más eficientes. Una mejor integración con la documentación y una vista centralizada de las pruebas definidas también sería útil. Sin embargo, estos pequeños inconvenientes no restan mucho a una experiencia general muy positiva. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

If you're using dbt, Elementary data is great addon to your data stack to monitor your queries, test coverage and report failures on Slack. The cloud version adds quality of life improvements to the OSS version.

It's fairly easy to plug in your dbt project and the different options to be added to the alerts are helpful to do some triage. The community and team is helpful and provide some support on the company's Slack. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

The platform is adding metadata through pre-hooks and post-hooks in dbt which slows down a bit your workflow.

The Slack alert template has little customization support and though it's OK, I think it could a bit more readable. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

- Seamless integration with dbt, via the open source package which is super easy to set up

- Webinars to present the tool are very effective

- Documentation site is great

- Cool features of the Cloud paid offering: example column level lineage and integration with other tooling you might have (BI Tool, Data Catalog); possibility to bulk set tests

- Possibility to tailor and customise alerts; warnings in dbt do not become silent, but are still tracked and monitored

- Elementary Data Report gives you a pulse on your data quality status in your dbt project keeping track of the history and making it accessible outside of the data org, to the whole business

- Anomaly detection package is an amazing way to integrate stats (and AI in the cloud offering) to time series monitoring Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

- Only integrates with dbt, so not available for other Data Trasformation tools (yet) Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

* Improved Data Validation & Anomaly Detection.

* Seamless Integration with dbt.

* Automated Data Quality Monitoring.

* Intuitive Dashboard & Reporting.

* Faster Issue Detection & Resolution.

* Customization & Flexibility. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

* The documentation is a bit unclear, making it difficult to fully understand how to configure and optimize the tool. Many features are not well-documented, leading to trial-and-error implementation rather than a structured onboarding experience.

* The anomaly detection feature needs improvement. Currently, when an anomaly occurs, the upper and lower bounds expand, making it difficult to easily disregard the anomaly. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Elementary Cloud has been a game-changer, providing a seamless, minimal-effort implementation and direct integration with our dbt Core environment. Getting started with Elementary was incredibly straightforward, with no major configuration changes needed for our dbt project. After a simple package installation and granting basic read access to the Elementary schema in our warehouse, we were up and running the same day!

The integration with Slack has proven invaluable, as our team receives real-time alerts that keep us on top of potential data issues as they arise. Being able to collaborate with teammates within our primary communication tool makes troubleshooting faster and easier.

The platform’s UI is another standout feature. It's clean, intuitive, and perfectly balanced for both technical and non-technical users. And it includes column level lineage!!

And last but definitely not least, the Elementary support team is phenomenal! Their responses are timely, their recommendations impactful, and they genuinely listen to our needs. Love working with them! Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Our dislikes are very few, especially knowing that upcoming feature enhancements will address these concerns.

But to call out something specifically...One dislike is that I'm not as creative as their marketing team! Love their "I want data, not your opinion!" slogan! Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

La mayoría de las herramientas de observabilidad que he visto caen en dos categorías, o son de código abierto y realmente difíciles de usar, o tienen un bloqueo total del proveedor. Elementary se sitúa en esa línea de ser de código abierto y construido sobre tu pila de dbt, pero sigue siendo muy fácil de configurar. El precio de elementary cloud es mucho más accesible para que las pequeñas startups comiencen con la observabilidad de datos, que en mi experiencia está restringida a empresas a escala empresarial, a pesar de que a menudo se necesita en empresas de menor tamaño.

si no te gusta dbt o no tienes dbt configurado, no hay nada con lo que trabajar aquí. Creo que la empresa todavía es joven y aún se están resolviendo más casos extremos, pero por lo demás, bastante contento hasta ahora. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.
