    Shiv Dutt S.

Cloud based data warehousing tool with Analytics services

  • November 27, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Performance of the tool, you can perform complex logic calculations on huge volume of data very quickly. At any point of time, you can add/remove servers to increase the performance. Easy to learn and deployment of code.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have not encountered any drawbacks so far with this tool. The only challenge that we see is direct connectivity with the sources. For example, to pull data from SAP, you need to use a replication tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are building a centralized database in our organization for reporting purposes. As of now, we have multiple systems which are not synched with each other. We are bringing data from all of them in snowflake then transforming data as per business need for reporting.

The Ultimate Data Warehouse

  • November 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Storage and compute power are separated so you can scale and manage performance levels as necessary. Integrates well with Tableau and Matillion ETL to form a robust software stack.
What do you dislike about the product?
Whilst the different user roles help control permissions, it is easy to accidentally run an operation with the wrong one. New features are incrementally rolled out but would be nice to see the time-travel feature work over longer periods.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted to build a data warehouse in the cloud but outside of the company's network. This solution allows us to easily open up our data to clients as well as access external data sources.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would highly recommend going on the paid courses before setting anything up. These will prove invaluable in avoiding costly errors on setup and longer term.

Great SQL alternative but sometimes not user-friendly

  • November 16, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that you only pay for what you use and it makes it easier for people starting their own businesses to have a reliable database without having to buy and pay for a server.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not very user-friendly. It's hard to find table names and key words (like no autocorrect options). I also don't like not being able to use keyboard shortcuts like ctr+e and ctrl+H
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Faster querying and ease to get data since the amount of data increased tremendously in my workplace and using sql server made things simply unmanageable. So a cloud-based solution was a great solution

Good Data warehousing tool and easy to use

  • October 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Data pulling and querying is very good and it also can be connected to different other tools like tableau and python for the visualization and the analysis of the data. A very user friendly interface which does not take long to get used to it. I like that it's very fast and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Does not allow the user to use up the whole space for query writing and sql auto formatting is also not available. It would be great if the top menu ribbon can be minimized
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a data analyst, I use snowflake for pulling the data and analyzing it. Being a cloud managed tool, huge data can be accessed on the go without any need of in house data warehouse

Be able to scale your database with ease

  • October 29, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature of Snowflake is the ability to scale production with ease. In addition, the query editor (worksheets) is a fantastic tool that enables users to interact with the database.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing to dislike about the product other than the ambiguity involved with the pricing. In addition, host information was slightly tricky to find.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickly scale our database at different times of the day. In addition, it's easy to set up new schemas, and perform CRUD operations.

Snowflake review

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to scale warehouses according to business needs.
The ease with which views and connectors can be built.
Great community support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake doesn't have a native offering with cloud providers like Google, aws or azure.
Bulk loading is a bit difficult.
The next generation of data is going to be unstructured and semi structured. Snowflake must look into this domain as it currently does not offer much in this niche
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting husiness insights regarding our product offerings.

An absolute dream

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake expedites the process of data querying in the best possible ways. It helps us out by:
- finding compilation errors immediately
- providing great functions
- being insanely fast
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it had a dark mode!
The linking process with Tableau is a little finicky, but on the whole, is a very good system. I do not have huge complaints about this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use snowflake for querying, insights, and sharing our findings.

Data Management and Connection with Power BI

  • October 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I usually use Snowflake with SAS and PowerBI,
It is Awesome and very smooth with all microsoft products.
Connectivity and refresh timing with PowerBI is phenomenal.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really dont recall and dislike, but still i would recommend that screen size/Terminal size can be increased for writing SQL queries and result view window also can have some features like traversing to next/previous records, Sorting by variables, choosing top N records etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Yes, Very much, i use mainly as Data warehouse and consume that data using power BI.
It really helps in faster connectivity and good refresh rate to manage data in millions.
