My first project experience with Snowflake
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake unique SQL query syntex is the best feature. It is very easy to use unique SQL syntex with Regular SQL syntex.
What do you dislike about the product?
i feel liilte more improvement needed in the ML part. Need to add more capabilities with snowpark for the users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it's unique SQL syntex hep me to optimise the complex query. Because of this save lot of time and cost price in the processing of data from data warehouse.
Fast and powerful, leading cloud data warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Snowflake is a company focused on data, and only data. Their cloud data offerings are their core competency. They quickly support leading and cutting edge features. They seem to get their market well.
What do you dislike about the product?
You need to be proactive in managing cost. As an owner of a Snowflake deployment, I appreciate the tools given to manage cost, but would like even more options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake's elastic compute solves having to manage multiple different OLAP databases to serve different workloads.
Snowflake verse
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake offfers a wide range of options for customization, allowing users to tailor their experiences to their specific needs. Additionally, Snowflake's scalabiiility is incredibly helpful, as it can seamlessly accommodate changes in workkload and data volu lme without sacrificing perfformance.
What do you dislike about the product?
One drawback for snowflake is one potential downside is the cost, as Snowflake's pricing structure can become expensivie, particullarly for smaller businesses or those with limited budgetss.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake onne of the key benefits is its ability to centralize and consolidate data from various sources, eliminating silos and providing a uniified view of informationss and businesses expand and generate more data, Snowflake can effortlessly scale up to accommodate increased workload demands without compromising performance or requiring significant infrastructure investments.
User friendly and able to integrate with ui and dashboard.
Navigating through application
What do you like best about the product?
One of the most impressive aspects of snowflake is its user-friendly interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing structure,with its various components like storage,compute and data transfer leading to unexpected costs if not monitored closely
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its architecture allows for seamless scaling of compute and storage resources
A good data warehousing tool for data engineer and data analyst
What do you like best about the product?
One of the thing which I like about Snowflake is that we can create folders and store multiple worksheets within that folder. We can also share the access of these folder to other snowflake users. As a Data Analyst I use snowflake on a daily basis as our Data Warehouse is on snowflake.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing which I dislike about Snowflake is that it only shows 10K rows when we query any data. Also we can only create a single chart from the results of our query, if we want to create multiple charts using the same results set then it is not possible. We cannot use filters in the charts which is a huge problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake is solving the problem of storing the Big Data. We can create Data Warehouse in it that can have multiple databases as per our requirement. It can easily be integrated with DBT(Data Build Tool). As a data analyst it is helping me to query through the different databases within my organization. With the help of different access permisssion we can query different warehouses as well.

A scalable and cost-effective solution that stores data streamed from the source system
What is our primary use case?
We use Snowflake as a database to store all the data we stream from the source system.
What is most valuable?
The best thing about Snowflake is its flexibility in changing warehouse sizes or computational power. If I want to change the computation with other tools like Netezza, I would have to add a hard disk to it. With Snowflake, being on the AWS side, changing warehouses provides me with faster execution of my queries.
What needs improvement?
The real-time streaming feature is limited with Snowflake and could be improved.
Currently, Snowflake doesn't support unstructured data. With Snowflake, you need to be very particular about the type of data in your source systems. It has to be in a proper structure. You cannot push data to Snowflake in any possible way.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Snowflake for a couple of years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Snowflake is a stable solution.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Around 400 users are using the solution in our organization.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We previously used IBM Netezza. We switched to Snowflake in 2020 because it provided us control over its scalability and costing model.
How was the initial setup?
The solution’s initial setup is comparatively easier.
What was our ROI?
Snowflake is a cloud-based, scalable solution that provides strong data security. Handling all the data is much easier in Snowflake, and it has a very nice interface to control user access. The administration of Snowflake is also comparatively easier.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Snowflake is a cost-effective solution.
What other advice do I have?
Choosing Snowflake completely depends on the quantum of data your organization has and the requirements. Snowflake is suitable for someone looking for a scalable and cost-effective solution that provides quick analysis.
Overall, I rate Snowflake a nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
