"great product, even better tech support"
5/5
What do you like best about Weaviate?

The tech support is fantastic: ticket ownership, fast turn-around times, professional, personable, and proactively willing share product knowledge with the end user to better help them understand the Weaviate product. Thank you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

Nothing. We had one issue with our serverless cloud and Weaviate support assigned four engineers to quickly resolve the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great DB solution for the AI Era"
5/5
What do you like best about Weaviate?

I like the API first/multi tenancy and ease of use of Weaviate. I use it not only as a vector database, I made a decision to use it as the core database for the entire app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

There are some features they should enable in the cloud console Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The worst customer service experience when you're having any form of issue"
0/5
What do you like best about Weaviate?

the initial setup is genuinely quite easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

We had an issue where our data corrupted and weaviate became entirely useless, retrieving different data at each request. During this time, weaviate took a day to respond each time, consistently shifting the blame onto us and not resolving the issue. There is no way you can help yourself as the actual management console is incredibly barebones. We had to move away from weaviate as the other two options were negotiating with support (which is a painful process when the blame is entirely shifted on you at all times) or using the control panel (which is incredibly barebones - there is not even a way of turning off your instance). Again, if you have an issue, do not expect to ever be able to resolve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Weaviate proves to be user-friendly, with a well-designed interface that facilitates easy navigation. The platform's intuitive nature makes it accessible for both beginners and experienced users. Weaviate's customer support is responsive and helpful. The support team is quick to address queries, and the community forums provide an additional resource for collaborative problem-solving. It becomes an integral part of our workflow, especially for projects that demand advanced AI capabilities. Its reliability and consistent performance contribute to its frequent use in our AI development projects. The platform's flexibility ensures compatibility with a wide range of applications and use cases. The implementation process is smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

While Weaviate excels in many aspects, there's room for improvement in terms of documentation clarity. Some aspects of implementation might be clearer with more detailed examples and use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use and powerful vector database"
5/5
What do you like best about Weaviate?

Weaviate is such a joy to use. I got a cluster set up in a couple of hours. Very good documentation, performant, a good level of abstraction where I don't feel like things are hand-wavy.

It's flexible enough that I get to use my IR and ML knowledge and feel quite in control of how the search performs.

I can use my own embedding model, reranker, and tune hybrid search to suit my usecase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

It could be cheaper! But it's cheaper than another competitor I tried. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Advanced Open Source Vector Database"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Weaviate?

Setting up an AI client is a complex task. Weaviate makes it possible to try different LLMs combined with hybrid search. This way we get the best of both worlds. We can make inferences based on more traditional search and help the model churn out better results.

Weaviate can be run locally, on-premise or in the cloud. This is really useful for a large number of use-cases. It also provides a clear pathway in case we want to move away from Weaviate Cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

So far our greatest challenge has been to create a chat like interface with Weaviate. I am sure it's possible but there are no official guides around it. Maybe something on the lines of Assistants API provided by OpenAI would be really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Out of the box solution of Vector Databases"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Weaviate?

I appreciate Weaviate's efficiency as a Vector Database, offering seamless integration with LLM models. Its fast computation, coupled with the capabilities for semantic search and RAGs, is admirable. Moreover, its out-of-the-box computing service is not only efficient but also reasonably priced, making it an excellent choice for various applications. It's encouraging to see its continuous development and the growing, supportive community that accompanies it, with a very competent support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weaviate?

A challenge of using Weaviate is its steep learning curve, especially for those new to the field, requiring a fair amount of technical programming skills to fully utilize its features. Once you reach it, the possibilities are endless! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
