I use the tool with visualization tools like Tableau and Power BI. We load the data into these tools and use them to build customer reports. We often need to write scripts to perform transformations before sending the data to the visualization tools.

Has good documentation and query time is less compared to other tools
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The tool's performance is good. I think it's the best in the game right now. It usually charges per query. For example, if you run a SQL query on Snowflake with the same number of data records, it would take less than half the time compared to running it on Microsoft. It has good documentation. You can pick up Snowflake if you have previous knowledge of SQL.
What needs improvement?
I can only access Snowflake from the web. It would be better if we could have an app that we can install locally on our laptops to connect to the server without needing to go to the web page. Apart from that, it's hard to point out any limitations in the tool.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with the product for four years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The tool is scalable. I've used it for datasets with more than ten million records.
How are customer service and support?
I only put data in and modify data. Most of the time, I don't require technical support. We occasionally had downtimes, and the data engineer would escalate these issues to Snowflake to resolve them.
How was the initial setup?
The solution's deployment is simple. You purchase the license on the Internet—I think there's only a free trial for thirty days—and set it up like a Gmail account. It takes less than a minute to set up. You can set up your Snowflake server or use an enterprise vendor like AWS or Azure. Recently, Snowflake has been moving away from third-party vendors. They want to set up their remote infrastructure.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The tool's pricing is based on the number of queries you want on your database. The cost is small. To get the tool's pricing, you can do the math based on the cost per query, which is $0.002. If you're running your queries frequently, your charges will be higher than running fewer queries.
What other advice do I have?
I would give Snowflake a ten out of ten in terms of performance and a nine out of ten in terms of scalability. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten.

Snowflake: Where Data Dreams Take Shape
As a data enthusiast, I’ve explored various platforms, but Snowflake stands out like a sparkling gem in the vast data universe. Here’s what I adore about it:
Scalability Beyond Imagination: Snowflake doesn’t just scale; it ascends to the celestial heights of scalability. Whether you’re dealing with a trickle or a torrent of data, Snowflake gracefully accommodates your needs. It’s like having an elastic data trampoline—bounce as high as you want!
Effortless Management: Managing data warehouses can sometimes feel like herding digital cats. But Snowflake? It’s the zen master of simplicity. The intuitive interface, automated maintenance, and seamless scaling make managing data pipelines feel like a serene stroll through a virtual garden.
Cloud-Native Brilliance: Snowflake’s cloud-native architecture is akin to a finely tuned orchestra. It harmonizes with AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, creating a symphony of data orchestration. No more tangled wires or compatibility woes—just pure, cloud-powered magic.
Also never seen as great documentation of the services as they do.
In summary, Snowflake isn’t just a tool; it’s a celestial compass guiding us toward data enlightenment. 🌟🔍✨
PS also easy implementation!
