Lead data analyst
What do you like best about the product?
It's point in click interface and host of component s that can connect to third-party services makes it very easy for more junior analysts to get involved in ETL workloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because of the point and click interface, it lacks flexibility that other more code heavy solutions offer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has really helped bring together disparate data sets and transformed all under one roof that can feed our business intelligent solutions.
Extremely easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
I come from a ETL/Data Engineering background and have worked on Ab Initio and Azure Data Factory for quite long. I found Matillion very easy to use and intuitive. I also liked the fact that finally a product is there which uses the power of DataBricks but you do not have write lines of code.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, very few video tutorials are available for using Matillion on Azure and connecting to Azure Synapse. Most of the material/videos available now are focused on AWS.
The free subscription duration for new users and learners is 15 days. I feel that is way less and would like to see it increased.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I prefer to think of Matillion as a cloud agnostic ETL tool. Using Matillion, one is not limited to the ETL/Data Engineering tool provided by the cloud vendor.
Alliances manager working to support a spectrum of technologies
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, sharp vision for their product and strategy, fantastic company culture
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to report here, the tool is excellent at what it's for
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data in the right place at the right time
Very easy to learn
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to learn if you're familiar with any other data transformation tool. Allows easy drag and drop but also offers full power of native SQL or Python when needed. Very good value for money - scales very well, also for small use cases. Uses the processing power of modern cloud data warehouses by using SQL pushdown.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI sometimes is a bit clunky and not very state of the art. You need to familiarize with some tips and tricks to work around those quirks. The application connectors still require a lot of customization compared to a specialized EL tool like Fivetran.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Extract data from various sources into our cloud data warehouse and then transform it into meaningful data to enable analysis of business use cases. Orchestrate and automate all repetitive tasks for data loading including error handling and notifications.
Great solution for Cloud Data Platform integration
What do you like best about the product?
Graphical and easy to maintain flows
Very easy to use in a cloud environment
Very easy to use in a cloud environment
What do you dislike about the product?
Require strong governance/policies to keep things manageable
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Many data sources with complex transformation and correlation
Transformation of the data in different format for the reporting layers
What do you like best about the product?
Loading data and transformation is as simple in a technical way and without complications. Understanding the software is easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
No cons, for now, have enriched and got to know the specifications from the broader perspective.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Extracting and moving the data and changing its shape for the analytics-ready is more simple and easy to function
A good ETL tool where you don't have to worry about setting it up (a good scheduler built-in)
What do you like best about the product?
There's no need to spend much time setting it up. You can dive in right away and start configuring your pipelines. The components provided are more than enough for a typical ETL. It covers all types of data sources including the script support if one needs to write custom logic.
What do you dislike about the product?
The project structure can a bit confusing at times. Also, people have a hard time understanding how it is coupled with the redshift instance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have done a typical full load and incremental loads from postgres to redshift.
Perfect go to ETL tool for cloud users
What do you like best about the product?
Best features.
1) Cloud based architecture so we can take advantage of all the available cloud tools
2) Can perform fast data transfers when the files are available in cloud
3) Github integration available
4) Functionality to migrate code between environment is awesome
5) Lots of native connectors available for different applications
6) Its is easy to the application is much fast in terms of other non-cloud ETL/ELT tools.
7) Simple yet powerful
8) The jobs can be triggers using AWS SQS functionality where you can drop a message in your queue to execute a job.
9) Chargers are based on pay as you go.

What do you dislike about the product?
Could have been improved.
1) SSO enabled GIT cant be integrated with Matillion
2) CSV response API calls cannot be handled using the native API client.
3) Scheduling functionally can be improved by providing more features like explicit calendars etc ..
4) Error messages could have been more appropriate
5) Expect slowness in login for the very first time
6) EC2 maintenance could have been taken care by Matillion team like snowflake.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are building enterprise data warehouse using Matillion ETL . Since most of the source data available for us are in the cloud and that help us to take the advantage of cloud power to perform faster data loads .
So many native connectors are available to connect various applications ..
Could maintenance and migration became so simple .
Mainly we don't need a powerful machine to build ETL anymore.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get it if you have you other application on cloud already (AWS/AZURE/GOOGLE CLOUD etc) .. License cost is much cheaper when compare to other applications in Market , Since its a pay as you go system you need to pay only when you use it . That is something great!
