Software Engineer Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 8/10/2023 "Nice and compact quality tooling for certain use cases" 4/5 What do you like best about Soda? Soda covers a space between Great expectations and DBT test. Great expectations is a bit too verbose, soda and dbt is more compact. DBT test dont work well inside pipelines, if you want to test an intermediate dataframe without materializing it to a table, Great expectations and soda can test dataframes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Soda? Tests have to be one of the out of the box tests or a sql query, you cant easily do generic python tests, maybe you can make it work with UDFs, also no connector to OpenMetadata, which we are using in our org. No OSS ui. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Soda solving and how is that benefiting you? Big plus above dbt tests reported in Openmetadata: more information in test outcomes, not just fail / pass but also e.g nbr of rows / max value for column, and dataframe checks.

We love all the integrations SODA provides. We currently use the Slack, Snowflake, and Jira integrations. SODA also has a large suite of built-in metrics to track data quality including anomaly checks and distribution checks. We also love the SODA Cloud API to pull all of our check results over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Soda? Overcoming the code vs. no-code debate. SODA has a no-code option, but our team is a proponent of writing the code to give us more customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows our analysts to have peace of mind for their day-to-day analytics and resolve data quality issues faster.

The open source framework to use for free for python users. 2. Great documentation on Soda agent deployment in cloud. 3. Easily create datasource and schedule checks. 4. Integration with orchestration frameworks like 'Airflow' and data governace tools like 'Alation' is quite easy. 5. Defining and checking DQ check fails is not confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Soda? 1. While defining checks if I miss to do syntax checks my scheduled check will fail and not show me the actual error in the log. 2. Soda should provide service option of manged instance of Soda agent which they are currently not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Soda solving and how is that benefiting you? We use data vault architecture and in that its advised to use reactive approach on data quality that proactive approach. So once datapipeline run is completed. It was difficult to identify failed records as we would need to run stored proc and store data. But with soda thats quite easy we just define the rules and we can see the data in same or diff table and its easy to see the stats based on the threshold of number of records failed.

I configured SODA with databricks warehouse and cluster and implemented for almost all use cases using inhouse checks, CTEs and User defined queries. Features I love the most are 1. Easy filter options to perform checks against recent or a portion of big data 2. Reconciliation checks against migration data 3. Data discovery to find the schema and perform schema evolution checks when schema merge is disabled for a delta table 4. Option to disable sample data collection is useful to implement checks against pii data confidently 5. Easy to configure integrations and to manage incidents 6. Notifications flexibilty Excited to try the upcoming features and finally, they do an excellent job when it comes to support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/8/2023 "Powerful and easy-to-setup tool for Data Validation" 5/5 What do you like best about Soda? I loved Soda's simplicity of use and set-up, although not as straightforward as dbt-tests it's much more powerful and works with lots of data sources, which makes it really flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Soda? The open-source version feels a bit lacking at times compared to the paid one, although you can implement most of the connectors by yourself it will be much appreciated if a Slack integration and some basic reporting features were included in the open-source version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Soda solving and how is that benefiting you?

Soda core is very friendly for everyone to contribute to data quality management in an organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Soda? I think there is still some confusion between Soda Core and SodaCL for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Soda solving and how is that benefiting you?
