A Data Warehousing Tool For All
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is one of the best data warehouse tool out there. It is super easy to use, so gone are the days of menotinous DBA tasks needing to be done. The pricing model is based on pay-for-what-you-use and is very cost efficient. You have total control over how much compute power you use, with incredible scalability. Every query can use a different size compute engine if you want! In addition, they have built in stored procedures, triggers, events, etc to make ELT easier. They also have a service called SnowPipe which allows you to easily create real-time streaming from common storage locations such as S3 and Azure Blob.
What do you dislike about the product?
The new GUI is still difficult to get used to. It used to be much cleaner/simpler of an interface but along with more and more capabilities, you sometimes need to have more and more complex interface. With all that said however, you don't have to use the GUI. Everything you can do in the GUI can be done in any ODBC/JDBC compliant data tool you like to use.

Snowflake is the perfect tool for having a powerhouse data warehouse that is strong enough for fortune 50 companies to use, yet simple enough for anyone with minimal data warehousing experience.

Snowflake: A Robust Platform for Data Lake Building
What do you like best about the product?
I've found Snowflake to be a powerful and versatile solution for connecting multiple data sources. Snowflake really shines when it comes to handling data of all shapes and sizes. Snowflake is designed to be accessible to folks from all backgrounds, whether you're a tech whiz or just dipping your toes into the data lake world. The SQL-based approach makes managing and querying data lakes a breeze. Snowflake's cloud-native setup ensures things run smoothly. So, you can count on optimal performance even when you're dealing with heavy data workloads. Queries run efficiently, and concurrency, making it relaible for ad hoc analytics and reporting.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes some time to get familiarized with their UI. While Snowflake is user-friendly, those new to cloud-based data lake platforms will need some time and patience to get caught up. However, Snowflake provides lots of documentation and resources help mitigate this challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a centrailized space to build a data lake. Snowflake can integrate with mulitple CRMs. It's like the social butterfly of data platforms as we are conencting Google Cloud Storage. They have lots of options for payment plans based on your data load. We are now saving money by deploying a centralized data front.

The only disadvantage I can see is it being slightly expensive. If you're a very early stage organization, I wouldn;t recommend spending a lot until you have a 5-6 person data team to set up the infrastructure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Snowflake as a central place to manage, modify, combine and organize data. Snowflake acts as a central hub to pull in and push data to various tools and our CRM (Salesforce).
