Let it Snow
What do you like best about the product?
True cloud warehouse which makes the compute and storage go without limit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Relatively new. It's hard to get all the metadata information
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It really helped with the problems that we faced with traditional databases like Teradata, like expanding the compute and storage.
Simple to use cloud data warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Having the ability to spin up/down compute on demand is very useful. Traditional ETL patterns no longer need to be followed to get good results. Native JSON support makes dealing with APIs simple and easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cumbersome security model is a pain to use but in reality much better for the data warehouse.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having the ability to work with billions of rows of structured and unstructured data makes delivering insights much faster and easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't expect stored procedures to act like you expect if you are coming from SQL Server, but just use them for what they can do.
lightning fast, no operation cost, simple to deploy
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake can be up and running in no time. No learning curve if you are regular rdbms user or developer. no dba experience required. You can optimized the cost by monitoring the usage
What do you dislike about the product?
The company still young so there is a lot changes happen
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building datawarehouse. The benefit is cost and speed to implement
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
Snowflake production use cases
What do you like best about the product?
1. Elastic storage,
2. Vertical scaling of compute power.
3. Support of user defined functions.
4. Wide range of analytics functions.
5. Fail safe.
Time travel.

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.
