Snowflake : The best data warehouse solution
What do you like best about the product?
The easy and quick away to change the compute power for your SQL queries. I don't think there is anything like this on the market. Unlimitted storage makes Snowflake THE data lake on the market.
What do you dislike about the product?
The new query interface. I'm not sure what Snowflake was thinking here. I always go back to the original UI. The new one is way too confusing. New features are not always well communicated. I wish there were a page in the account where we can get a summary of new elements and which one is available and active for the current account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building Data Warehouse solution. We use Fivetran and Airbyte for data integration to bring any data source to Snowflake. We then build a dimensional model to transform data and provide our clients with faster BI reporting capability. We then use DBT to automate the data transformation and implement our dimensional models.
User Experience
What do you like best about the product?
User-interface and easy to work with an environment
What do you dislike about the product?
if we have standalone software it could be usefull
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
data migration and process of data
Consolidate your data sources
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake has allowed us to consolidate multiple data sources like application databases, product analytics, decision models etc., into one repository. The fetching of report becomes easy and does not strain our master setup
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in particular. Works like a charm for our use cases
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The single reference point for all data access. Snowflake has solved this problem and given us the ability to generate exhaustive reports without the hassle of downloading multiple reports and then stiching them
Snowflake is all you need for a database
What do you like best about the product?
My organisation consumes Snowflake as the leading service for storing and analysing data points collected from customers and clients. It provides a spotless and straightforward user interface. The ability to work on multiple tabs and queries is wholesome. It also supports different databases users need to select for querying the data point. It also has a separate canvas showing the status of query progress and SQL tree structure of the query with the amount of time each operation takes. Once the query is completed, it provides a download button to save the result. They recently introduced Snowflake Lite, which is also easy to use and valuable.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't include the feature to run multiple queries from a canvas. Sometimes the queries take longer than usual, and waiting is painful without a progress bar. There is no historical version of the canvas where the queries are written, so once it is lost, it is gone forever. There is no autocomplete feature support for table names or SQL syntax.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Snowflake to store the data points collected via pipeline from customer clients to the prod database. We use two different versions of Snowflake; one is for developer testing, and another is for the production database. I can filter data points through SQL queries based on dates, types, strings, etc on the Snowflake. The SQL tree is helpful to optimise the queries as it provides a breakdown of each component consuming resources and time.
Makes it really easy to have all your data in one, easily-queryable place
What do you like best about the product?
Really strong performance and speed, also easy sharing
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I don't like is that you cannot collaborate with teammates on a query
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes it easy to query data and quickly get metrics that we need
Awesome data warehouse tool with pretty good UI and decent python API
What do you like best about the product?
Snowsight, the new snowflake browser UI, is set up well for quickly drafting queries and has some helpful, albeit basic, visualization tools built in. The python connector API is pretty good too.
What do you dislike about the product?
A couple of irregularities in setting up the python connector on M1 macs, and some minor bugs in the snowsight ui (forgiveable since it's still pre-release IIUC)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drafting queries to pull data for our models, sharing data, data warehousing, and row-level security. It's an essential part of our organization's data engineering pipelines. Visualization tools allow for quickly sharing some high level summaries of our data.
Probably the best warehouse in the market. It is definitely a bit expensive though.
What do you like best about the product?
Governance is really straight forward and queries run very fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
Expensive. No transparency on specs of warehouses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able (for the most part) to execute our queries very quickly and organize them well.
Snowflake best datawarehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is very modern cloud data warehouse which reduces the complexity of designing Analytical data solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake doesn't allow to share a database from one snowflake account to other account which has different cloud vendor and located at different region.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to design the data warehouse as per our business requirement and that too in very much feasible way and with many other features.
Good Database and Security
What do you like best about the product?
It has good security and also good integrations with several other tools. We used it with Holistics as an SQL extractor and it works great. Is very good at extracting data and very quick to show results.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my experience but I think is more of a company policy about security. It would be great if Snowflake has its data extractor or a SQL extractor, it would be very useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Is our current data warehouse for our app data. It also helps us to consolidate several datasets as our App, Enterprise Resource Planning and Customer Relationship Management.
good enough terraform support in snowflake
What do you like best about the product?
Was able to configure and manage via terraform provider
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all config is available via terraform
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simplified data analysis and allowed us to move expensive queries off of our production systems.
