Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/13/2023 "Great support from DVC team; flexible and very helpful tool" 4.5/5 What do you like best about DVC? DVC allowed me to have an overview of my results, with plots and tracking the metadata. This improves and speeds up the research process, allowing reproducibility of the results and better team work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DVC? The tool needs some basic knowledge of coding (python), so can be a bit challenging to start. Also, some conflicts with previous versions may cause errors - which are rapidly solved by the DVC support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DVC solving and how is that benefiting you? I use DVC to track my molecular simulations. DVC allows me to track the parameters I used to create the simulation, analyze and compare results quickly, not to mention the ability to restart the simulation procedure from a specific point in time, without the need to re-run all steps. It improves my research by allowing reproducibility and I can easily share my results with co-workers via Github. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Co-Founder Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 8/9/2023 "If you like the unix and open source philosophy, then with dvc you will feel home" 5/5 What do you like best about DVC? I like that they follow the UNIX philosophy quite closely, they have an amazing comunity, always there to answer your questions. I also find amazing the open source culture they cultivate, and the active role they play in the ML community, sometimes even supporting economically Data Science events. Finally, I like how dvc plays together with git, making GitOps for ML a reality. For me personally, I especially like the modularity of their products, that allow me to "hack them together" to my will. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DVC? I encountered some occasional problems. Most of the time was actually my fault, didn't read the documentation carefully enough. Sometimes I had more serious issues that needed a resolution, but the dev team was very quick to fix them and provide me with solutions in short time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DVC solving and how is that benefiting you? I use dvc to track the execution of ML pipelines and dvc+gto to store the artifacts in a registry. I use the VSCode extension to explore the experiments we run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It makes the models I create using python so much more accessible and sharable , It also intuitively tracks ML model evolution beautifully. Also, Data management is on another level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DVC? Trial Period is inadequate for learning the walkthrough for the app and then using and applying it further. Sometimes connecting to Git showed some error but was fixed almost in 5 minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DVC solving and how is that benefiting you? Version Control of Multiple ML models and creating asynchronous data timeline for the models individually. ML experiment management is also another major of my personal uses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
