"Cloudera Delivers Stable Performance and Easy Integrations for Engineering Data"
4/5
What do you like best about Cloudera?

Managing data tied to structural drawings, BOQs, and sub-contractor changes across several commercial fit-outs needs to be both effective and efficient. Cloudera provides a solid solution for our engineering office data infrastructure. The user interface is clear and straightforward, so site engineers can quickly find material logs, review the project directory, and follow the data flow without confusion. It is also easy to connect Cloudera with procurement databases, estimation tools, and cloud storage, which helps keep synchronization tight between site measurements and vendor billings. Even when opening heavy schedules with many years of historical fit-out specifications, performance remains stable, with no system lockups during data retrieval. Automated data checks flag inconsistent line items and incorrect vendor codes before purchase orders are created. Overall, the setup process was simple and enabled site engineers to start working immediately, delivering real value through financial gains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudera?

Accessing advanced security features and managing file permissions through the web portal can feel complicated for non-DABs (database administrators). Integration with third-party estimation software also runs into occasional sync issues, especially when the transfer week is very busy. At times, the automated pattern detector seems overly sensitive and flags false alarms triggered by minor manual notes, which then have to be dismissed one by one. For technical issues that fall outside the regular process, quick support may not be available by phone and instead requires submitting a ticket, and the annual license fees are still considerable.
