What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how easy it is to search up different tabs that I'm working on. Another feature I find helpful is Snowflake highlighting the specific syntax or part of the query causing the query to run unsuccessfully.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake's documentation on its syntax and the examples provided can be confusing and hard to follow. I want Snowflake to provide more detailed and broken-down SQL queries with the matching results for more complicated functions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Snowflake, I've run a distribution analysis and set target goals for an incentive program rolling out for the company's Customer Service representatives.

Snowflake comes to New Zealand-a while back

  • January 18, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It turns lots of source data into SSoT and feeds many data consumption tools, and potentially shares data with many other New Zealand Government organizations in a copy-less clone.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am looking forward to unstructured data capability as it is restricted to structured and semi-structured data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SF is SaaS, so we spend more time on data loading than managing the tech. True SSoT allows many users to access the same SSoT data to form MVoT info.

Snowflake Data Warehouse

  • January 06, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The separation of compute and storage and the flexibility in being able to control costs. Snowflake role hierarchy is also a very nice feature that allows for a flexible yet robust privilege hierarchy.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if Snowflake offered a cost breakdown per user. Having the resource monitors is nice, but having the ability to see who is utilizing compute would make cost management a lot nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving the problem of concurrency. Our current solution is not a highly concurrent system, and a couple of big queries can impact the rest of the users in the system. Snowflake does an excellent job of isolating the problematic compute areas.

Time travelling and fail safe, good ui,IAM service
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't search text and do operation on it (like edit) in a query available on snowflake.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake reduces the cost of operation, by MPP structure and many other features like time travel.

Snowflake as tool to fuel Marketing, Sales and Success Metrics

  • December 16, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Lot of success in storing large amounts of structured data and managing compute for fast queries across the data lake. As of today, we currently have ~50TB of data in Snowflake and hundreds of tables. Snowflake handles storage and compute efficiently. Snowflake can work well with large amounts of data with auto micro partitions of your data and you can also add clustering to improve usage.
What do you dislike about the product?
Large amounts of data might not work well if it’s not partitioned and regularly pruned out. We are considering other options for real-time use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A good go to tool for large amount of structured data. Like I said before you can clustering to improve usage. Very easy to use. A little SQL knowledge goes a long way.

Better than Sift app

  • December 15, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how detailed oriented and easier it is to be able to look more into customer's information when it comes to verifying information traces of customers using DoorDash.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't have access for a while until now. There isn't anything to dislike about snowflake yet, since it's a new program that I'm using.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to trace a deeper information on customers for multiple accounts, how much refund/credits they received in the entire time using DoorDash, and if they have multiple accounts.

The Ultimate Data Warehouse

  • November 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Storage and compute power are separated so you can scale and manage performance levels as necessary. Integrates well with Tableau and Matillion ETL to form a robust software stack.
What do you dislike about the product?
Whilst the different user roles help control permissions, it is easy to accidentally run an operation with the wrong one. New features are incrementally rolled out but would be nice to see the time-travel feature work over longer periods.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted to build a data warehouse in the cloud but outside of the company's network. This solution allows us to easily open up our data to clients as well as access external data sources.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would highly recommend going on the paid courses before setting anything up. These will prove invaluable in avoiding costly errors on setup and longer term.

Be able to scale your database with ease

  • October 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature of Snowflake is the ability to scale production with ease. In addition, the query editor (worksheets) is a fantastic tool that enables users to interact with the database.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing to dislike about the product other than the ambiguity involved with the pricing. In addition, host information was slightly tricky to find.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickly scale our database at different times of the day. In addition, it's easy to set up new schemas, and perform CRUD operations.
