What do you like best about the product?
The best part about snowflake is the Snowpipe , whenever new data is generated it get auto-triggered in the data-warehouse.

It support all cloud service ( aws, azure, Google cloud)

30 days free trial feature is highly invaluable

ETL ( Extract, transform & load)
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as such,
sometimes the query execution time takes more than the optimum time, but its not very frequent.

In a nutshell , snowflake is a good to go option for any large enterprise dataset
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It enables me to do ETL ( Extract transform & load ) very seamlessly.
It is highly optimized & scalable as per the user.
for me as a user it enables me & my team in terms of BI , reporting, data analysis & even marketing quite seamlessly.

Has good documentation and query time is less compared to other tools

  • May 13, 2024
  • Review from a verified AWS customer

What is our primary use case?

I use the tool with visualization tools like Tableau and Power BI. We load the data into these tools and use them to build customer reports. We often need to write scripts to perform transformations before sending the data to the visualization tools.

What is most valuable?

The tool's performance is good. I think it's the best in the game right now. It usually charges per query. For example, if you run a SQL query on Snowflake with the same number of data records, it would take less than half the time compared to running it on Microsoft. It has good documentation. You can pick up Snowflake if you have previous knowledge of SQL.

What needs improvement?

I can only access Snowflake from the web. It would be better if we could have an app that we can install locally on our laptops to connect to the server without needing to go to the web page. Apart from that, it's hard to point out any limitations in the tool.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with the product for four years.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool is scalable. I've used it for datasets with more than ten million records.

How are customer service and support?

I only put data in and modify data. Most of the time, I don't require technical support. We occasionally had downtimes, and the data engineer would escalate these issues to Snowflake to resolve them.

How was the initial setup?

The solution's deployment is simple. You purchase the license on the Internet—I think there's only a free trial for thirty days—and set it up like a Gmail account. It takes less than a minute to set up. You can set up your Snowflake server or use an enterprise vendor like AWS or Azure. Recently, Snowflake has been moving away from third-party vendors. They want to set up their remote infrastructure.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The tool's pricing is based on the number of queries you want on your database. The cost is small. To get the tool's pricing, you can do the math based on the cost per query, which is $0.002. If you're running your queries frequently, your charges will be higher than running fewer queries.

What other advice do I have?

I would give Snowflake a ten out of ten in terms of performance and a nine out of ten in terms of scalability. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten.

What do you like best about the product?
Customer Service Very helpful and responsive. Met them at a confrence and were smart informative people
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far, continuing our journey with them. Still early in our journey
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently use both SQL Server, MySQL, and Snowflake at work, and we've decided to start transition over to Snowflake because the pros far outweigh the cons for us, and I've heard very similar feedback from other companies that have switched to Snowflake
