Choosing Snowflake was one of the best decisions our organization
What do you like best about the product?
Great computational power, back ups, ability to change size on demand.
What do you dislike about the product?
The online interface is pretty good, but could use some improvement. I have experienced issues with complex queries that involve multiple joins and have a lot of partitions
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake is used company wide by analysts and developers. Great performance and role management helped Snowflake's implementation

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run multiple production workloads on a business day. Our entire batch processing time reduced by 60 %.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes. Definitely
A great Solution for Data Warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
The computing speed for the queries has been greatly increased. You an make it even more scalable by increasing the size of VM instance. Ideal for warehouse which follows star schema .
What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't support stored procedures/ functions. Date operations are pretty complicated and lengthy. The import from CSV doesn't work as well. It requires long process where you have to stage a file to AWS Storage and then only you are allowed to import.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have the Data Warehouse in Snowflake which is the central storage for our business data. The computing is faster allowing large and complex ETLs to execute quickly.
Snowflake busted up our performance
What do you like best about the product?
snowflake query analysis , query history metadata & snowflake support
What do you dislike about the product?
some syntax changes, and the drop downs are some times slow
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we have built a parallel query executes based on query dependency , which wouldn't be possible without snowflake
Recommendations to others considering the product:
improve your performance
Great product
What do you like best about the product?
We needed to migrate from RedShift quickly, and moving to Snowflake was easy. The think I like most is Snowflake's separation of compute and storage, which gives me a huge amount of flexibility when assigning different workloads. I also appreciate the query caching that Snowflake does to decrease my cost and increase the performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I don't really like about Snowflake is that there is one Identity Provider per account. This means I have to have more accounts than I would normally create, and the accounts cannot share a pool of compute, thus eliminating some of my economy of scale.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a fast, stable, built for cloud Electronic Data Warehouse for our data platform, and Snowflake has fit the bill perfectly. Management of our databases has become an easy activity with Snowflake, as there is very little management overhead compared to similar offerings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great product. Make sure to calculate your usage and thus gauge pricing effectively.
Simple and invisible
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake seamlessly blends into our BI stack, is invisible when we need it be, and is available and transparent when required.
What do you dislike about the product?
The language is a little specific, and just different enough from regular SQL/similar.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake forms a seamless, consolidating layer between our BI layers, allowing complex analysis, previously very inefficient.
Great Query Time
What do you like best about the product?
Query time is consistent and provides good analyst experience
What do you dislike about the product?
UI needs to improve a bit with better ability to visualize data schema
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Day-to-day data crunching happens in Snowflake. Benefits are querying speed leading to better analyst experience
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Understand their architecture in detail to better tap into their full potential. A comparative study with your current system can provide you in-depth understanding of their USP
Easy to use, easy with json objects, easy for ETL
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake lets me load a lot of formats of data and play around with them. It reads anywhere from .gz to .csv and let's me copy specific coloumns' data out.
I actually use it as a replacement for Ms Excel on my Mac. I had taken a python course and instead of using Pandas, I used Snowflake to good effect.

What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake could bring in the support of a procedural SQL like PL/SQL. That would really make it unmatched.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Snowflake for in house data warehousing and ETL. We run all our analytical and intelligence generation queries on Snowflake and have realized how fast and efficient it is.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is wort giving a shot if you are reconsidering your ETL options.
snowflake good
What do you like best about the product?
it is good dwh and working well in our env
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing its all good in dwh in our organization

What do you dislike about the product?
I mostly liked Snowflake compared to other cloud databases and some aspects needs improvements incl. Geospatial functions and additional libraries.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Snowflake to house enterprise data platform where all critical insurance related end to end information is stored in the form of real-time dataware house platform. With Lambda-Snowpipe it has been greatly successful to solve business problems. End users are completely hooked to Snowflake functionality due to agility and usability. Since it enables self service cluster management it's even more popular.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
-Experience snowflake for elasticity and scalability. part from that end users liked it more due to features like ease of use, cloning, on-demand cluster management etc. Security is huge plus on how data is protected.
