It is really easy to use and supports a wide range of data formats, including vectorized, columnar-based, and more. Additionally, DataStax is very robust, and its support team is extremely responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Although it is user-friendly, mastering and optimizing all the features offered by the database can present a steep learning curve initially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cassandra legacy. There is generic industry persception that cassandra is complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I Like DataStax's robust support for Apache Cassandra, enabling seamless management of large datasets with high availability. Its unified platform for hybrid and multi-cloud environments, with advanced analytics and search capabilities, sets it apart. The company's commitment to community engagement and innovation is commendable, making it a top choice for comprehensive data management solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The scalability of Cassandra, along with the customizations done by Datastax, is terrific for enterprise use cases. AstraDB, their Database as a service, is easy to use and cost-effective. There are drivers/SDKs/APIs for most languages/tools/frameworks you want to integrate with. Stargate is a cherry on top of the cake. The Astra Streaming service is an excellent managed service of Apache Pulsar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A few general issues with Apache Cassandra are no transactional guarantee and joins. The eventual consistency will not work for all use cases. The Astra service lacks capabilities for extendable monitoring and observability. Datastax Astra also lacks the ability for refined RBAC and network security.

Our data was decentralized. It has therefore become indispensable to implement a customer master data management solution to deploy a consolidated vision of our clients in one single point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Beneath the covers, the Cassandra data storage layer is basically a key-value storage system. This means that you must "model" your data around the queries you want to surface, rather than around the structure of the data itself. This can lead to storing the data multiple times in different ways to be able to satisfy the requirements of your application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
DATASTAX is an amazing tool for enhancing training and organization throughout our company. It's helped us integrate departments and employees which has helped us all improve greatly especially in terms of scalability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Datastax is a bit expensive especially for smaller companies who are budget conscious. I also which the processes could be sped up a bit. There is also a learning curve to Datastax which I believe requires someone well versed to get through and teach to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
