The biggest draw for most people is that Ilum has a free plan and is open-source, which is a huge deal because it means you're not locked into a specific vendor and you save a ton on licensing fees. You can run it wherever it makes sense for you, whether that's on your own servers or in the cloud. It also plays nicely with all the tools data people already use, like Tableau and PowerBI. Capable of managing complex tech like Spark and Kubernetes. Plus, it's also very fast, which boosts performance boosts and can amount to cost savings, especially those who have switched over from older systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
On the flip side, it's good to remember that Ilum is still new. Because it's younger, it might not have all the bells and whistles or niche features that some of the platforms that have been around for a decade have. The community around it is also still building up, so you might have to dig a bit deeper for answers compared to just finding a quick fix on Stack Overflow. That said the official support team is fantastic and super quick to help, which definitely helps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
