Great way to organize complex databases and return information for large enterprises
What do you like best about the product?
No frills here. Input SQL and get outputs. Easy control of who from the org gets access to what certain databases.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using Snowflake requires some degree of technical expertise that not all members of a business may possess. Best for folks in at data organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can control what readouts are seen by certain parts of the business. Prevent complicating matters for teams who do not need access and grant permissions to those who do need to see.

What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake is not supporting unstructured data right now
Bulk load is bit problem
No usage limit company may see some surprise in pricing if they use more resources

Best Data Warehouse Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is the best data warehousing tool in the market it gets all the features as one connects to any cloud Environment like AWS, Azure or GCP to store its data plus the virtual warehouse is pretty fast and its internal micro partitioning feature is also pretty handy.
What do you dislike about the product?
As it is pretty new to the market there are very few documentation or training to learn this tool also they can add new cloud environment like oracle cloud to the snowflake.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do all the ETL stuff with snowflake and now using snowflake we can easily migrate our existing project to any cloud environment. it is very cot effective supports all the major clouds one connects to multiple languages using different connectors are all of the benefits of a snowflake.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
just go for it
The Best Product in Cloud Warehouse market
What do you like best about the product?
Everything about it is amazing. It is super fast, computes queries so fast. Can get you more than 6 million rows in less than 5 seconds.
It has the feature of time traveling which lets you go back to a previous stage of your data and it is very helpful.
Since it has the storage and compute separated, it lets you query in a very fast way and maintains different warehouses.
Is very cost-effective as well.
It handles so many things together, handles the security of the data also in the best way.
One should just go for the migration to Cloud and should choose Snowflake

What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't come across anything till now which I dislike about the product. Although it does not seem to handle unstructured data as of now but seems like it will be included in the future. If that will also be covered, other than semi-structured and structured, it'll be simply awesome!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We migrated the data from DB2 to Snowflake as we wanted easier deployments, better security and wanted to move to the cloud for higher performance and cost-effectiveness as well. Snowflake fulfilled everything we were aiming for.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just go for it. If you do decide to move to Cloud, Snowflake is simply amazing!
Snowflake the next gen cloud solution
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of access, one-stop shop for data sharing problems in a financial sector
What do you dislike about the product?
Perhaps, cost of owning a space is to be thought about
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Socializing the data across enterprise without having multiple infrastructure and manpower within the same organization thereby optimizing the cost of ownership of data being acquired
High-powered, feature rich, cloud data warehouse enabling all kinds of new possibilities
What do you like best about the product?
I like the power and capability of Snowflake, as well as its aesthetic user interface. It's not only a database - with SQL and all you'd expect there - but it also provides tremendous functionality for sharing and controlling access. We've made row-access policies, for instance, to even let clients into their data and only their data. I like the concept of roles which allow us to easily specific access levels to specific pieces of data, I like how we can visualise items from a query within the console, and many, many other things. In short, working in Snowflake is quite pleasant and enjoyable with a great user interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the worksheet editor allowed us to search and replace - it seems a little basic this is missing.
I also wish the product would make warehouse recommendations - for clarity, Snowflake pricing is based on the warehouse you use for your work, with a warehouse essentially being CPU, RAM, etc. So, an extra small warehouse is the lowest amount of compute power and, correspondingly, the lowest price. Yet, it's possible for some newcomers to inadvertently run their work in (say) a large warehouse when this costs more money. Or, conversely, maybe we're too worried about cost and we're causing a complex query to take excessive time to run. It'd be nice if Snowflake itself gave some advice around queries - e.g. you run it, and it says "hey, if you did this on a small warehouse it would have taken only 0.2ms longer but would have been cheaper" or "this query took 25s to run. If you used an XL warehouse it would have completed in under 2s" or something like that.
It'd also be nice if Snowflake SQL supported string concatenation with the + symbol like T-SQL.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using Snowflake as a cloud-based data warehouse to aggregate data across all our many diverse databases and products. We have applications using AWS and Azure, with databases in SQL Server, MySQL, and others, and with some apps using multi-tenanted databases and others using one database-per customer. We have thousands of databases across products and clouds and DBMS engines - so ingesting all our relevant data (for reporting purposes) into Snowflake allows us to make awesome reports in one place, for all customers, across all products.
Snowflake or Nothing
What do you like best about the product?
It could churn through data so fast, which is nice in a data warehouse tool. I wasn't the only one either in our company there were probably 20 analysts or more doing simlar things to what I was doing and it rarely missed a beat.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing that I didn't like about it was the fact that the only interface that we had to interact with it with was online. There were other ways but they were build directly from snowflake.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to pull a ton of data, and check results so that we can publish the data to our BI Tool. This is used for reporting purposes to see how the company was doing.
