"Early days for us, but so far - transformative and reliable!"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

Initially, it was the honest, non-salesy nature of the conversation. Weld genuinely seemed more interested in our requirements than trying to 'make a sale', which appealed to us - they strike that delicate balance so well - humble, but very professional; it felt like a super cultural fit.

And then when we saw the product - wow! The website, the interface, the user experience, the people - everything seems to have been built and considered so carefully. The SQL element may not be for everyone, especially for customers without full-time analysts, but the introduction of the AI feature is such a great addition that Weld is now an excellent product for data and non-data people alike.

Having now been with Weld for a couple of months, another great strength is their flexibility and willingness to look at solutions to fix problems. Chloe, in particular, has been amazing in helping us to achieve our goal of working with our data from a single source of truth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

It's hard to be critical so far, but as a data analyst myself, it might be nice to have had more hands-on experience in sessions with engineers, or get 'under the hood' a bit more. Also, for us, it would have been a more straightforward decision in the first place if Weld had had existing connectors for more of our data providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great, thought-through and simple to understand product."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

I have been very happy in working with Weld. It's a product that by nature requires sometime to get-to-know, as the use cases are quite complex, but Weld makes it easy.

The Weld'ers (employees at Weld) do a very good job at trying to help out as much as possible, when reaching out to them with a general question or a specific case issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

Many other people have mentioned the change in business model, which have meant a change to their availability on different channels and reoccurring replacement of the business representatives assigned to your company.

I know this is part of the game, and they are not to blame.

One thing I could miss as a small start-up, would maybe be some general guides to different business metrics. As a small business, many of these are not set in stone yet, and as there's a great difference between tech and business definitions, this might be the bottleneck issues for many of our smaller customers.

"Creating a data infrastructure with Weld was easy-peasy 🍋"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

When we started with Weld, we barely had anything in place related to data. The intuitive interface and the dream team at Weld helped us not only create a first iteration of our data infractructure but also boost the data knowledge within our team.

What helped a lot were the connectors that allowed us to easily link our existant data sources, but also the custom connector option, which helped connect our internally developed software as well. Using Weld to create models and then visalise them allowed for my team to become more data-driven, make better strategic decisions and track progress along the jounerney.

What do you dislike about Weld?

The only thing we somewhat miss is having a Weld representative assigned to us as an account. Nonetheless, I know the business model changed and I’m hapyp to be part of the Weld Slack channel and community now! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Transparent and functional tool for dataprocessing a must have in your datastack"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

The SQL centered approach, and the AI that help you write the SQL needed to work with your data across multiple sources. It's simply awsome.

It can feel a bit as a programmers tool, but the no-code approach you can take, using the AI to generate the SQL needed, will help you keep a transparent view on how your data is handled. I've found it to be comforting to know that I can copy my generated SQL to any other setup to validate and possibly export if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

I'd love to see some visualisation options inside Weld. It's great to be able to hook into other visualization tools, but for validating and simple outputs, it could be great to be able to do quick visual dashboards of your data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Data warehousing and ETL made easy!"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

Coming from a relatively small organization, Weld has made it easy to set up and manage a data warehouse with numerous data sources. Furthermore their intiutive design has made it easy to get started with tranformation and analysis of data. With the addition of their AI tool, it is now also extremely easy to get into writing SQL, even with a very limited experience. The tool seems to be developing every day!

One key sales argument for me, was that it is an option to export your code down the road, if our data warehousing needs change in the future - thus you are never tied to the software.

In short, Weld is definitely a state of the art tool, that can help you boost the data integrity in your company within a relatively short time and without heavy cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

The product proposition in Weld has changed over the past year, which we needed to navigate within. On the other hand the pricing plans have also changed accordingly (adding an essential plan), and Weld has done their best to not affect our experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Weld is the best ETL platform for E-commerce"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

I've used several ETL tools out there, and all of them lack the custimization, Weld offers with their SQL editor. Weld is also the only tool, i've come across, that provides access to almost all available fields in the API's it support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

Weld requires some SQL-knowledge as well as some experience with data warehouses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Userfriendly and powerfull ETL tool"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

It was easy to get started with Weld. We was up and running with all our data sources within the first day thanks to the build in integrations within Weld. We were very happy with the onboarding process, where we got all the necessary help (and more too!) in order to get up and running. Weld also have a strong community with both other customers as well as supporters at Weld helping in a minute. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

I do not have a specific issue to address. Being a scale-up company Weld can without doubt still be better, for example in terms of integrations, UX, nice-to-have features, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"From 0 to value in 20 minutes"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

When setting up Weld for the first time, I had issues connecting with an external data source. I wrote their support, and within minutes I was on a call getting real-time support helping with troubleshooting, and we quickly found out it was due to a missing scope from the data source. Since then, I trust that when I run into an issue, or I feel blocked, I can safely assume that their support will go above and beyond to help resolve any issue.

What do you dislike about Weld?

Sometimes when logging into Weld, new features have been released, and it can sometimes be challenging to figure out the navigation and where to find things you thought were previously in another place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Weld's platform makes data insights easier!"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

Weld sparked our journey at GrejFreak to become more data-driven, as the platform started our journey into using business intelligence. The easy setup and integration with other software meant that we quite fast could start utilizing Weld for automated monthly reports and data visualization across the organization. Furthermore, Weld made an extra effort to GrejFreak, as our webshop platform previously didn't have a connector with the Weld platform, so this was built in 14 days. So the implementation process took less than a month before the product showed its use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Weld?

Overall happy with their product. One thing could be to make more "standard" connectors , as Weld provides the ability to create custom connectors which requires creating scripts on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Weld is the quick and easy solution to kickstarting a BI setup"
5/5
What do you like best about Weld?

Weld has been instrumental in kickstarting our business intelligence setup. The experts at Weld helped us set up the initial data structures and aggregations while implementing some first use cases.This approach left us with an excellent starting point to dive deeper into our data. The implementation process was super quick, and the team behind Weld has been incredibly supportive and responsive since the beginning. We appreciate the built-in AI assistant, which together with the intuitive platform design has enabled us to run a DWH with only junior experience and thus save internal team resources.

What do you dislike about Weld?

As we started using Weld over a year ago, we've been there through some fluctuations and changes in their business/product strategy. However, Weld made a great effort to not let that affect our partnership and was always open to adapt to our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
