In Exasol, I found that I can do a lot more with my same skill set without learn much more knew skills and in the same environment I can do a lot more and build things so quickly that I needed more time before. Exasol has great performance, reliability, and ease to use the database is amazing. Never fails once configured correctly :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I haven't seen anything so far, it worked in every case scenario that I needed :). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My first experience with Exasol was revealing: when migrating our data warehouse we saw many reports running in 1/10 of the time.
This extraordinary performance allowed to, over time, squeeze much more value from the database, while keeping low maintenance and development costs.
For my Analytics department, migrating to Exasol was the single most important step that we took to provide a better service to business, assure quick development cycles and incur in minimal admin effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Scripting capabilities can be enhanced and better documented. It is not always easy to find resources capable to program with Lua scripting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
EXASOL is an incredibly powerful database - its performance mean that I never have to worry about computational efficiency when designing analytics pipelines and can focus on building in complex logic that will allow us to make sure our tool will serve the needs of our field staff.
The EXASOL team has proven to be excellent - both in terms of their willingness to support me queries and their technical knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is actually to come up with a list of grievances I have with EXASOL - using the database has been an incredible smooth experience from the start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

+ Amazing performance in general;
+ Cost-to-performance ratio is very competitive, you'll need much less hardware;
+ Efficient indexed JOINs, probably best in class;
+ Flexible UDF scripts, can be implemented in any programming language and run in parallel; Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Lack of native support for composite data types;
- Lack of native partial backup (per-table, per-schema), must use EXPORT instead;
- Detection of data lineage is a bit difficult, unless you implement it yourself externally;
- Cloud capabilities are not fully utilised (yet), but it's not a problem for "on-premise"; Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and build complex SQL queries. Performance on it is fantastic.
It is also great, that it can handle multiple users to work on the same dataset without any problems with performance.
Great tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Initially had problems loading data via Alteryx but switching to the ExaLoader created lightning fast bulk load solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Exasol does not really have a drawback at all Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Great foundation. Basic SQL operations (joining, grouping, sorting) are greatly implemented and scale to many billions of rows. you'll build plenty of great things on top of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Loaders and connectivity options may well be better. Those tools are very flexible internally, but you have got to understand the way to use them properly. And documentation is simply too generic sometimes, lacking implementation details. we are able to decompile it and peek inside to require advantage of hidden stuff, but most of the individuals can't do this.

Exasol is a very good tool for processing large amount of data, it also allows miutiple users to work on data without compromising the query performance. Exasol also allows integration with other programming languages like python and Java Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Exasol does not really have a drawback except that it can be a little expensive for companies just starting out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
