Data Warehouse at its best

  • June 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best feature that I like about Snowflake as a database or data warehouse is the ability to Clone the data at no extra cost, and create Dev, test and Prod environments. the ability to go back in time are few of the best features. Being a develop I'm always fearful of accidentally dropping tables and not actually having backup scares me. but Snowflake eliminates that with features like time travel.
What do you dislike about the product?
Auto correct or auto complete are few of the features that I would be interested in. But with Snowflake acquiring Numeracy, I'm hopeful to have a lot more query edit features.added.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are Snowflake partners that are trying to help clients to move from their legacy systems to Snowflake.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake allows many companies expand their data profile into the cloud easily and with a large performance improvement over traditional data warehouses.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only real thing that annoys me is that F5 refreshes the screen instead of running the query. Simple things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are helping our clients move off of old architecture and help them improve response times and cut down on costs.

Low barrier to entry

  • June 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
true separation of compute and storage, flexibility of spinning up warehouses, pass through cost of the storage. Easy to spin account up. Like the ability to re-size warehouses on the fly without restarting the underlying process
What do you dislike about the product?
unique SQL functions (not uncommon to any db provider). Heavy scripting to get data loaded, heavy scripting to build out the user groups, roles, grants, etc. around security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralizing our data into one repository; migrating from Teradata EDW to snowflake. Benefits are performance, low compressed storage usage/cost.

What do you like best about the product?
Essentials session was very informative for me as a beginer
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel this was the first time and that's why a few things were missing e.g. checkins over limit and am sure it will all be taken care by next time.
Labs can be better.
Solutions demos could have been more technical
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we are the new customers to snowflake and was her to get more insights. I clearly see a huge revolution not just in our company however all around the world who are using traditional systems today.

The go-faster button for our reporting and data science

  • June 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake scales easily to meet our demands - no matter how much data we throw at it, no matter how complicated the query, we can solve the problem quickly and effectively. It's an extremely full-featured SQL dialect, and we can use it to do the heavy lifting on a lot of our data science efforts. And finally, the ability to spin up different compute resources for different tasks and avoid contention is a godsend.
What do you dislike about the product?
The web SQL editor can be a tad flaky at times (no pun intended), though I am excited to see the upcoming version that they just showed off. In general I'd love to get more updates from them about the great work and additions that they are constantly making to the platform; I sometimes discover great new features by accident when I am googling to solve a problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake powers our BI, helps us understand our key performance indicators, and feeds our advanced analytics efforts, allowing us to build data-driven products for our customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take advantage of the ability to scale your warehouses! It's often just as cheap and you will get answers faster.
