We migrated away to GCP Composer due to their credits offerings. We're a small startup and really needed every possible financial relief we could get, otherwise we wouldn't have done so. We really miss the great UX/DX.

And even when we were migrating, Astronomer generously extended our payed-credits usage beyond the contract so we could **migrate away from them without so much pressure**, and this we never asked for, it was their own proactive offering!!

We will probably come back once our GCP credits run out :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Previously I had as a con their pricing, but I think I need a correction here. Their pay-as-you-go option without dedicated clusters is very reasonably priced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Astronomer's agent purpose-built for Airflow that can build pipelines, debug failures, investigate production incidents, and help with Airflow upgrades. When a production DAG fails you can ask it to pull the logs, analyze the failure, and propose a fix, and it's accessible from the terminal with astro otto or in the Astro IDE. Useful for cutting down incident response time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Astro makes managing Airflow in our data analytics workflows incredibly smooth. It takes away the pain of infrastructure management, allowing us to focus on building insights instead of firefighting. The UI is clean, monitoring is straightforward, and scaling is effortless. I also appreciate the reliability – critical pipelines just run without constant babysitting. For our team, this has been a huge productivity boost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s not much to dislike. Sometimes the learning curve for new team members can be steep because of Airflow concepts, but that’s not really Astro’s fault. If anything, I’d like to see even more built-in templates or best-practice guides for common data analytics use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Astronomer has significantly improved how our team manages Airflow. What I appreciate most is the support—they are consistently available to answer our questions and offer practical guidance. Previously, we had to handle our own Airflow instance, which required a lot of preparation, learning, and time for every update. Now, with Astronomer, updates occur more frequently and seamlessly, allowing us to access the latest features without the complexity we faced before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don’t like as much is that some features are still not fully supported. For example, Dataline or having an interface to better understand why certain pods are not starting, which can make troubleshooting more challenging in some cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Astro by Astronomer makes deploying and scaling Airflow much easier. The managed environment takes care of scheduling, logging, and monitoring with very little setup required. Its integration with CI/CD tools and compatibility with both Kubernetes and cloud-native runtimes help streamline pipeline operations. Customer support and documentation are excellent, making it well-suited for enterprise use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I started using Astro at my company back in 2021, focusing on Astro Hybrid deployments. Setting up a reliable Airflow cluster with proper networking and load balancing can be a complex task. Astronomer's Astro Hybrid product, however, significantly reduces the DevOps workload involved in maintaining the cluster, while still allowing you and your organization to keep control over your infrastructure and data. This lets you spend more time on what really matters: developing Airflow DAG code.

Additionally, it's straightforward to spin up or tear down Airflow clusters as needed for development purposes, which is especially helpful for comprehensive end-to-end or staging tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the support team is generally helpful, I've noticed that response times for support tickets have become increasingly slow, likely due to a growing customer base. Support is especially limited during East Asia timezones, where it can feel almost non-existent.

Additionally, when dealing with more complex issues, the responses to support tickets can sometimes be vague, even when I've provided all the necessary context in my initial request. I recognize that it's challenging to address complicated problems thoroughly, particularly when communication involves both support engineers and developers. For these more involved cases, if your company has access to a dedicated Slack channel shared with Astronomer developers, I recommend using it. This direct line of communication can make it much easier to resolve issues efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Choosing the right partner, especially in complex technical domains, can be challenging, but working with Astronomer has been a truly exceptional experience. From the initial consultation to the final deployment, their team demonstrated a level of expertise and dedication that is rarely seen.

What stands out most is their commitment to our success. The Astronomer team didn't just provide a solution; they acted as true partners, deeply understanding our specific needs and delivering reliable, high-performance results quickly and efficiently. Their solutions are robust, scalable, and clearly built on a foundation of deep, industry-leading knowledge.

The customer support is also top-notch—responsive, knowledgeable, and always ready to go the extra mile. If you are looking for a company that combines innovation with unwavering dependability, look no further than Astronomer. They are, without a doubt, a first-rate organization.

The initial learning curve for the platform's advanced features was steep; a few more introductory tutorial videos would be a huge benefit for new users. This, however, is a small trade-off for the power and flexibility the platform offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate the observability the platform provides for all of our company's deployments. Additionally, the integration with platforms such as GitHub and Bitbucket to sync the DAGs is very useful. Deploying with the API is straightforward and user-friendly, but at the moment, I personally prefer syncing DAGs rather than including them in the image.

My team always push new dags and the tool's uptime is quite good, as I have never seen any problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With the new version of airflow, I have some problems with the pods that run all the process. But nothing with astronomer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
