Upsides are that if its working correctly it can justify the cost of running Pepperdata. Pepperdata provides Capacity Optimizer data and reporting so you can keep tabs on its effectivness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not sure I have any specific dislikes as it tends to just run itself and needs little to no care and feeding from our side. Will be interested to see how or if we get similar results in saving with our spark workloads on kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Capacity Optimizer is a simple easy to implement - easy to use application that will save you money right from the get go. Right out of the box you will see a 10 to 15 % savings. The support is top notch - they go above and beyond in getting the most out of the product. This is a no brainer for any Big Data workload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Pepperdata team works closely with you to answer and problems you may have. I have not had any serious problem that would make me not use it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Capacity optimizer fits more containers on the cluster than would normally run without it. Custom alarms allow us to trap and notify problem users and processes in Spark/Yarn.
The dedicated support we get from Pepperdata is top notch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A lot of our developers are not advanced enough to take advantage of spark tuning recommendations. Or are not given the time to tune their applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The capacity optimizer helped us to reduce the wastage on EMR clusters and increased the efficiency. For one of the clusters - the savings was as big as 75%. For others we are seeing atleast 30% savings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Needs fine tuning multiple times, I would love to see some automated feedback in place to recommend the right set of settings based on the workloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Capacity Optimizer and APM insight. Product provides great value insight and cost savings to the point where it pays for itself within months or sooner for some. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cloud performance is great, however the number of tools/products that are supported are limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ease of installation, great dashboards for cost and capacity visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Wish we could use it on our other applications! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The capacity optimizer has been proven to save a lot of money. What I like best about the product, though, is the support we have received throughout our journey of migrating our EMR clusters from EC2 to EKS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are still some features that need to be worked out for EMR on EKS and EMR Notebooks, but the Pepperdata team is actively working on these. These are relatively new offerings, so it's not surprising that there is still some work that needs to be done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The visualization is good with clear uncluttered dashboards and metrics analyser Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Optimizer does not work always. Details on how the optimizer works is not so clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the fact that Pepperdata has hundreds of metrics which are highly customizable. At the same time you can create your own metrics.
Moreover, it provides valuable information about the jobs being run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cant think of any downsides at the moment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
