review from a data scientist

Artılar:

Many data source and ETL is all done in ZEMA

Eksileri:

User interface is too complicated, sometimes difficult to navigate

ZE GroupTeamwork

Zema review

Yorumlar: Good product

Artılar:

A very efficient organiser of price data, choice of multiple sourcing from emails, websites, ftp servers and even pdf reports, price data organisation from forward curve construction angle, ability to construct independent curves using multiple data sources and automate it, easy integration to various downstream systems (CTRMs, ETRMs etc), single sour of price data across organisation, off-the-shelf product, Zema personnel experience in price curve management needs, easily saves consultants and developers cost to design and build a tool that only does 10% of what Zema is already doing.

Eksileri:

I would expect Zema to be more involved with current and potential users on training and explaining various features of the product. Most of the time users have to do a lot of self-learning through trial-and-error exercises

9+ year of ze experience

Yorumlar: great experience with ze, been with them 9+ years

Artılar:

overall the application is great, its tailored to fit every company, the software is mature, not alot of bugs

Eksileri:

the only thing that stands out as a con is that their pricing is abit high, but you are getting a great service

Zema the saviour

Artılar:

Zema helps us to get data, make curves, analytic using single or multiple sources which helps us make our dashboard

Eksileri:

back tracing OData query at times is difficult.

A great tool for a robust pricing mechanism for daily EOD needs

Artılar:

The prompt customer support which is available in case of any unforeseen issues is very appreciable from ZEMA team. The business analysts at the customer support are well trained and commit to providing a resolution as per the criticality of data needs for our daily EOD work makes us feel assured to meet our targets on time without much delay.

Eksileri:

The self-ticket generation tool can be remodeled to be more user friendly and less time consuming in case we require to raise tickets ourselves.

Overview of ZEMA

Yorumlar: Overall Happy with the functionality and cannot fault the support team

Artılar:

Ease of setting up need processors and configuring new curves

Eksileri:

logging could be improved and alerts when no data is uploaded from source

Zema

Yorumlar: Overall Zema is helpful to automate reports, but I'm not sure if connection can be relied for large range of data which takes a lot of time to pull in and many time, the operation times out.

Artılar:

Like the ability to integrate different data source into one place and ability to create analytics and curves.

Eksileri:

The loading time to process multiple data sets. it takes a lot of time and mostly just times out. Also the data update is not very up to date. New data is reflected a bit late than required with many times data is missing too. Need to raise a ticket very often regarding problems.Excel plugin does not work very efficiently. Ends up freezing the excel and system sometimes.

review

Yorumlar: Reasonable. The set up took a long time and there was a lot of confusion regarding the login. That's also to do with our internal set up as well. But once it's set up...using it has been reasonably ok.

Artılar:

The web interface is convenient but not the fastest. Python API's are reasonably well set up...but more work could be done with making it easier to use for US focused products. More templates for specific examples (US power and gas) would be helpful - I guess I haven't seen them yet.

Eksileri:

Haven't used the full capabilities yet. So far.......nothing to hate on at this time

IT management review

Zema: good product but with some improvements it could be great

Zema Review From Hong Li

Yorumlar: the best part is Zema support is really great. Even sometimes take more time due to time zone, but service is really great.

Artılar:

Build Market Analytic, applied formula, create curve.

Maybe the lack of validations and debugging

Eksileri:

Incomplete data set make it unusable, some data set has a gap, some data sets missing values

User friendly

Yorumlar: Very simple and handy

Artılar:

very handy to use. We normally use to extract metal prices and it takes just 2-3minutes to run the report on excel.

Eksileri:

sometimes, when the data is not available on a particular date, report goes into error. We have to follow a process which takes another 2 minutes. which is very irritating.

ZEMA fits our data ingestion and curve building needs for ETRM processing and fundamentals data

Artılar:

ZEMA fits our data ingestion and curve building needs for ETRM processing and fundamentals data. ZE is easy to do business with and acts in good faith as a partner

Zema

Artılar:

Flexibility to customise curves and ease of exporting/refreshing in excel

More tutorials for beginners will be helpful

End to end data Suite

Yorumlar: ZEMA is a good product! It works!

Artılar:

Broad range of data parsers spanning multiple industries. This software gives access to a wide-range of data that is valuable to any company. And if it's not currently available, the vendor can develop it in a short period of time.

Eksileri:

Certain in-depth functionality would be nice to have particularly in managing curves.

Powerful tool, poor support

Yorumlar: I've been using Zema for 7 years working as a trading analyst and other roles. The software has a lot of functionalities and is a powerful data vehicle, however simple things around the customer service are tarnishing the overall experience. Lately we've been trying to add a new pricing curve and the messy and slow communication with the support team made something as simple as that to get dragging unsolved for months. we kept going in circles without been given clear explanation about the nature of the process, additional costs and time for implementation. Honestly, if our parent company wasn't tied up with an enterprise contract we'd definitely consider switching to different product .

Artılar:

The software has a large range of data analysis tools and functionalities.

Eksileri:

the customer support is slow and not as helpful as expected
