MapR is great while you are in their ecosystem - once you step outside and try to bring in technology thats not supported by them, you run into little showstopper bugs and complete lack of documentation and community support.

Our experience has not been consistent with that. For example we use MapR-DB and have never had a single issue with HBase compatibility or bugs. My DS team loves the database especially it's quite good.
