Peer review sites are becoming an essential buying resource to consult before you make any purchase – whether you use Yelp to read restaurant reviews or visit Amazon to seek reader feedback on crime novels or consumer feedback on refrigerators. If you are considering a new software vendor to modernize your data warehouse platform, peer reviews are even more critical, given the considerable investment and strategic importance of reliable and performant analytics for your business.
G2 Crowd, has amassed more than 1.2 million reviews from real users, covering a range of software categories, including everything from analytics to data privacy to security and more. In the Data Warehouse category, Vertica has achieved a position in the Leaders’ category in the G2 Grid for Data Warehouse.
How did Vertica achieve this Leader position?
G2 scores products and sellers based on reviews gathered from their user community as well as data pulled from online sources and social networks. The scores are ultimately mapped to their G2 Grid, which customers use to compare products, help with the buying process, and determine which product best fits their needs based on the experience of their peers.
So, customer reviews carry real weight as G2 Crowd crunches the data to map the Leaders, High Performers, Contenders, and Niche vendors. Vertica has a 4.5 star review rating and 94 of the 96 customer reviews are four or five stars.
Here’s an example of a review of Vertica on G2 Crowd:
