Snowflake - Best out there!

  • September 08, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake's architecture is build for scalability. The data sharing capabilities are exceptional; ot requires literally zero maintainince. I would rate Snowflake the best out there in terms of easy of use, support and value for money. Pretty much everything about Snowflake is great!
What do you dislike about the product?
The only disadvantage I can see is it being slightly expensive. If you're a very early stage organization, I wouldn;t recommend spending a lot until you have a 5-6 person data team to set up the infrastructure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Snowflake as a central place to manage, modify, combine and organize data. Snowflake acts as a central hub to pull in and push data to various tools and our CRM (Salesforce).

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is one of the best datawarehouse cum ETL cum database tool. I like it's multiple features like
1) We can create multiple warehouses with different sizes and use them as per our requirment. Also the warehouse will suspend automatically when not in use. So you only pay what you use.

Also it has many features. Below are few major among of them:

1) Data sharing for business need
2) Time travel, which helps us to debug in case of any bug or issue, retrive old data
3) Fail-Safe for disaster recovery
4) Stream to track SCD change
5) Task for scheduling
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake does not enforced Primary Key concept in tables. So we need to create separate process to avoid duplicate data loading.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake has many useful features, below are few among of them.

1) Data sharing. In Snowflake we easily can share data among multiple accounts. So without giving access to the main snowflake account we can share our data to another team for analysis.
2) Time travel, which helps us to debug in case of any bug or issue, retrive old data
3) Fail-Safe for disaster recovery
4) Stream to track SCD change
5) Task for scheduling

Speed of Snow

  • August 25, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake really stands out when it comes to query speeds. It’s evident they built the platform prioritizing efficiency, and that's reflected in how fast and accurately we can pull data. But what I truly appreciate is their approach to data access through role functionalities. It gives us a hands-on ability to dictate data accessibility, striking a perfect balance between security and user access.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake has a lot going for it, but there are areas I wish were better. The way they charge based on compute time can get expensive, especially if we're running queries non-stop. Even though it's packed with features, it can feel a bit much for those new to it. And, honestly, I wish they had their own visualization tools, so we wouldn't have to lean on other software for that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake's been a game-changer for our data setup. Remember those annoying isolated data chunks we used to grapple with? Snowflake tossed those out the window, putting everything in one place. It's made getting to our data a breeze and kicked its quality up a notch too. Our team now dives straight into pulling insights rather than getting stuck joining dots. Plus, managing who sees what? A walk in the park. For me, Snowflake's taken a load of data headaches off the table, making things run smoother and helping us make better calls.

New edge tool for faster and efficient data storage

  • August 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use for new bees with the UI. It can be used for multiple usecases in small scale to big scale industries. It can widely used for data applications, data lakes, data engineering, data science, etc
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some gaps with certain functionalities like the the failure or success dataload intimation. There is an easy query for failure of data load but it cannot be customized and for the latter, you have to take a longer route.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake helps us build a comprehensive data platform where data is accessed consistently , governed, high quality and secured. It also meets our operational needs like easy documented integration with AWS.

Snowflake data ware house review

  • August 18, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a snowflake developer , i will recommend to use Snowflake . Since it a cloud based patlform , it is best for both small and large scale companies.
It's a type of technology that helps companies handle and manage huge amounts of information. Imagine you have a giant puzzle made of data, and Snowflake is like the magic glue that holds all the puzzle pieces together. What's cool is that it works super fast, so even if you have pool of information and you don't know where to start with , Snowflake can organize it in a blink.

Using Snowflake feels like having a super-smart assistant. It helps businesses keep track of important stuff, like customers' information or sales numbers. Plus, it's really secure, like a digital vault for your data, so you don't have to worry about it getting lost or stolen.

One of the best things about Snowflake is that it can talk to different types of computers and software. So, if you're using one kind of computer and your friend is using a different one, Snowflake can still help both of you understand the same data. It's like having a language translator for computers!

Shares with Others: Snowflake helps you safely share your information with others, there are many featurs avalulable though which you can share your work(worksheet), data/database from one reason or one person to another.

Super Fast: Imagine it's like a super-fast computer for storing and finding information. you will be surprised to see how fast the results are calculated, analysed and result is given to you.

No Computer Troubles: You don't have to worry about fixing or taking care of the computer part. Snowflake does all of that by itself, so you can focus on using the data.

Another great feature is that Snowflake can grow and shrink according to what you need. So, if your business starts getting bigger and you have more data to deal with, Snowflake can handle it like a champ. And the best part is you will be charged as per your uses only. you can easly track your uses and and montly expence by the cost calculator.

Overall, Snowflake is like a superhero for businesses that need to manage lots of information. It's fast, secure, and can talk to different kinds of computers. If you're looking for a way to keep your data organized and safe.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some of the cons that i can think of for snowflake , and listing them down .
Costs Money: Using Snowflake isn't free.you can login and have a trail period of 30 days but at the end of it you have to pay to continue. It's like having to pay a small fee to play with your favorite toys.

Needs Internet: Since it is a cloud based technology you have to be connected to the internet to use Snowflake.

Learning Curve: It might take some time to understand how Snowflake works, get to know all the features provided by snowflake , its interface, then you and use it more easly. there are several you tube videos available at your service. It's like learning how to use a new game or toy.

Not for Everything: Snowflake is great for certain things, but not for everything there are certain limitations .

Can be Slow Sometimes: Sometimes, Snowflake might take a little longer to find your information. It's like waiting a bit more for your favorite show to start.

Not very Flexible : While Snowflake can handle different types of data, it's not as flexible as playdough. It might not work well for really unique or unusual things.

Needs Good Security: You have to make sure you set up Snowflake securely to keep your data safe. It's like locking your diary to make sure no one reads your secrets.

Limited Offline Use: Since it needs the internet, you can't play with Snowflake when you're offline. It's like needing to be at the park to use your scooter.

Changes Happen: Sometimes, Snowflake might update or change things, and you'll need to adapt. It's like when your favorite game gets a new level that you need to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working as a data engineer in the era where big amount of data is available for a single piece of information , finding the right data for you is challenging . In my case storing, handling, processing and analysing the data and finding the result suitable for me is the best solution snowflake has provided me. On top of it , it has few more featues that is listed.

Shares with Others: Snowflake helps you safely share your information with others, there are many featurs avalulable though which you can share your work(worksheet), data/database from one reason or one person to another.

Super Fast: Imagine it's like a super-fast computer for storing and finding information. you will be surprised to see how fast the results are calculated, analysed and result is given to you.

No Computer Troubles: You don't have to worry about fixing or taking care of the computer part. Snowflake does all of that by itself, so you can focus on using the data.
