Azure Databricks vs. Gavagai

Having access to all databases and tables in one place is what has helped me and my team to function better. The in built functionality/access to SQL and Python is definitely an added bonus! The icing on the cake is the ability to export your data into an Excel spreadsheet for additional analysis. If you have less to no working knowledge of SQL or Python, its better to look at alternatives.

Gavagai is well suited for a B2C business that receives a lot of customer feedback in a form of open-ended text. It makes life easier for the customer experience team to efficiently identify the strengths and areas of improvement for the business. It saves a lot of time and also the hassle of analysing text data manually. It is not just a word cloud tool that shows you the words with the most number of mentions. Gavagai directs you towards actionability.

Based on my extensive use of Azure Databricks for the past 3.5 years, it has evolved into a beautiful amalgamation of all the data domains and needs. From a data analyst, to a data engineer, to a data scientist, it jas got them all! Being language agnostic and focused on easy to use UI based control, it is a dream to use for every Data related personnel across all experience levels!

Against all the tools I have used, Azure Databricks is by far the most superior of them all! Why, you ask? The UI is modern, the features are never ending and they keep adding new features. And to quote Apple, "It just works!" Far ahead of the competition, the delta lakehouse platform also fares better than it counterparts of Iceberg implementation or a loosely bound Delta Lake implementation of Synapse

I didn't evaluate many options while choosing Gavagai, I had explored a few local vendors whose capabilities were either incomplete or were not up to the mark. Their customer support was also quite poor. Also, the tool was debugged enough which led to frequent crashing. Alchmer although is not a direct competitor to Gavagai, since it's more of a customer feedback tool with additional capabilities of text analytics. I found Alchemer to be extremely expensive. Zonka on the other hand was quite welcoming to feedback from me and promised to develop additional capabilities for my specific requirements although the plan didn't go through due to internal reasons.
