"Modern, robust, and very flexible. Learning curve involved for complex solutions."
4/5
What do you like best about CloverDX?

The CloverDX Designer is robust an relatively easy to use, once you grasph the paradigm of job flows.

A large collection of building blocks is provided out of the box, and custom components can be created for readers, writers, or transforms that aren't available out of the box using their proprietary "CTL" language or pure java.

Debugging capabilies are pretty powerful, especially when running a local server instance.

Learning curve is low for many simple usage patterns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloverDX?

Doesn't accommodate a multi-developer, source code-controlled, multi-tier enterprise team very well. Every developer will need their own server license and diffing code is challenging since graphs are persisted as XML.

Advanced use cases quickly exceed the capabilities of users who are not developers or very advanced data analysts. We've found that someone who is already grounded in ETL concepts and development make the best advanced users.

Complex usage and very large volume workflows often require advanced troubleshooting capabilities and tax the system's capabilities.

Support tickets rarely get attention before the next day for U.S. users.

Missing out-of-the-box integrations with most AWS services that are not based on a common open-source project (like Aurora with Postgres or MySQL). We had to build several Gramlin readers and writers for our graph DB us cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"CloverDX for Conversions"
5/5
What do you like best about CloverDX?

It is flexible, modular, reduced maintenance, increased accuracy. You can develop common processes (graphs or subgraphs) to be called by other graphs. You can package them into jobs. You can create user facing data apps that provide a simple user interface/page where the users can attach their file(s) , run the process, and receive their output.

You can create/maintain common layouts/definitions in one place and use them across all processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloverDX?

Nothing comes to mind. You might think run time parameters or global variables, but once you understand the context/usage of Clover sandbox parameters, graph parameters, dictionary entries, and parameter passing between graphs/subgraphs, you can do almost anything.

"Very streamlined and capable ETL solution."
5/5
What do you like best about CloverDX?

CloverDX has allowed us to take our ETL to the next level. We were using many SSIS packages to accomplish this. With CloverDX, not only have we sped up our onboarding time, but we have been able to add QA and alerting to jobs that have made our process more robust and capable. We have greater confidence of the data integrity. If a job fails, Clover logs tell us exactly where and what failed. It has reduced the trouble shooting time down from hours to minutes now.

Customer service has been outstanding when we have needed assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloverDX?

Documentation, while pretty good, when it comes to complicated workflows, examples and explanations are lacking. But for the daily most used features, documentation is very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"As a ETL visual tool, Clover gets the job done fairly well"
3.5/5
What do you like best about CloverDX?

The most helpful aspect of CloverDX is that it is a visual tool, which can help you simplify and visualize data flows. As far as ETL processes are concerned, I have not encountered any lack of relevant features that you might need. Additionally, the debug feature is very useful and fairly intuitive. Another positive aspect is being able to run scheduled processes on Clover Server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloverDX?

One downside of Clover is that when you are working with large or complex data flows, the graphs can become visually cluttered and confusing. Large data flows can also become laborious to update or add new features because you will often need to update several components of a graph when you want to adjust one small feature. Another big downside is that version control can be very difficult and cumbersome to implement, especially when working with a team of developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Low-Code ETL tool with good data lineage"
3/5
What do you like best about CloverDX?

Tracking data throughout the pipeline.

Helpful OOTB components.

Visually see the pipeline and data flowing through it.

We use it every day to process day.

Server showing history is cool to see flows.

Good range of integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloverDX?

Any visual programming tool is going to be limited by it's DSL, the limitations for Clover are that since it's XML under the hood conflicts are VERY hard to reconcile making it hard on larger teams.

Integration of custom code (especially non JVM) is a pain.

App can take a long time to load. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Seamless Data Integration Experience with CloverDX"
4.5/5
What do you like best about CloverDX?

I have been using CloverDX for quite some time now, and I can confidently say that it has become an invaluable tool in my data integration workflow. From the very first interaction, I was impressed with the software's capabilities, and it has consistently delivered outstanding performance, making my data-related tasks much more manageable and efficient.

The extensive library of pre-built components and transformations was another aspect that impressed me. These pre-built elements allowed me to accelerate my development process significantly, as I could easily reuse existing components rather than reinventing the wheel each time. The ability to create custom components and share them with the CloverDX community also added immense value to my work.

Thank you, CloverDX, for creating such an excellent product! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloverDX?

While CloverDX performs exceptionally well for most data integration tasks, particularly complex data transformations might experience slightly longer execution times. This could be a concern for time-critical projects or those dealing with massive datasets.

Though CloverDX provides responsive and knowledgeable customer support, some users might prefer more extensive self-help resources. Expanding the library of online tutorials, use-case examples, and troubleshooting guides would empower users to troubleshoot issues independently.

In some scenarios, users might encounter performance optimization challenges, especially when handling extremely large datasets or highly intricate data workflows. Ongoing improvements in this area could further enhance user experience.
