The team has been in close contact throughout the process, providing tutorials and answers that helped us understand the expectations and processes.
The benefits have been customer support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The tutorials often do not match my needs. I needed specific details to use the APIs in a format that did not match my expectations or possibly my needs. I am able to build apps that upload our data to DataStax. But I am unable to access the vector search parameters because the method that I used to upload the data is not the preferred method to query the database. In order to use the tutorials for querying the database, we would have to completely start from scratch with uploading the dataset using the same tutorials. Unfortunately, those tutorials are not set up in a manner that I understand how to upload the data. As such, I find that I might have to build my own database query pipeline
This is a problem for ease of use, ease of integration, ease of implementation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Astra's Vector capabilites is one of the foundations of our product. From vectorising product catalogues and partner data to searching complex queries, in real-time, on unstructured data, it's an incredibly powerful tool.
When working with larger brands it's imperative that we're enterprise-ready, that our models are fully customizable and can be hosted in partner environments - something which DataStax allows us to do.
Finally, the team at DataStax are just awesome. They have been supportive from day 1, supporting us from MVP to enterprise-ready software. The team do an amazing job at ensuring the tech is up to date and providing us with great support whenever we need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Datastax Enterprise Support is still not completely matured, it is still work in progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would really stress on the Simplicity, when compared to other vectorstores I really liked the astradb and Langflow as well where I played around rag for my MVP and I was the one to introduce the langflow in my team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Learning curve can be steep because of their long list of Query APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The multiple ways of connection - REST API based operations for create, insert, delete or update , option to use cql and driver based connections, easy to query and great performance are the best feasture of Datastax.
The ease of setp and usage with various languages like java, python and node make it an easy to use database for newer languages Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Datastax being based out of cassandra has queries based on model objects and so not all columns can be used for where clause which makes it to think the design in advance. The key columns and query columns need to be identified.
Blob data saving example is not present. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Support and robustness.
Astra DB is rock-solid. We experienced a 50x traffic increase on our conversational chatbot "AI Guru" with zero downtime during a live demo with 1 million students. This is a testament to the scale at which AstraDB can deliver in production usecases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
