Coalesce is a fantastic transformational tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Coalesce's intuituve user interface, highly engaged developers making active improvements to the platform, and overall focus on helping us get data transformed in a complex way allowing us to get data in a form we need it to add value to our business, both internally and externally. We use this tool day daily and at times work with Coalesce support to help us build out the platform to our exact needs. Coalesce helped us solve some specific use cases that would not have been doable with other tools on the market. It's also highly configurable so for power users who want to build it's a wonderful solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform can be slower with larger environments. The mapped column interface can take a long time to load and be very slow to navigate for larger pipelines and ETLs. I'd like to see the GUI become faster and snappier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coalesce solves the problem of getting data transformed in our data warehosue. We can build our ETLs with ease in Coalesce in a way that would not be possible with other tools on the market.
The best data transformation tool to scale
What do you like best about the product?
Coalesce IMO is the best transformation tool in the market. Before selecting them, I did extensive research of the other tools in the space. Some feature that stood out were bulk edit, custom node types, data lineage, rapid deployment and so many more. The people at this company are also wonderful to work with. Integration with snowflake can be achieved within minutes. The ease of use, yet ability to build complex logic makes this stand out.
What do you dislike about the product?
They are working on an orchestration tool and their data lineage could use a few minor enhancements (which I think are on the roadmap)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On Security, Coalesce and Snowflake authenticate with Snowflake oAuth, which is the highest option available. Coalesce is snowflake native so it supports all features when they are released.
Data engineering force multiplier
What do you like best about the product?
How easy it is to build data assets. The robust documentation that is automatically prepared for you as you build. The ability to deploy and host scheduled jobs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like a pause button for my jobs when I'm developing just so they don't run
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us built all necessary data transformations as well as deploying those procedures in all of our environments that exist within our data warehouse
Easy Transformation in Snowflake
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Coalesce is how easy it makes complex data work—things that used to take us days now take minutes. It’s helped our small team move faster, stay organized, and deliver cleaner data without burning out. They also have great customer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main challenge with Coalesce is that it can take some time to fully understand how to use all its features effectively, especially for newer team members.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coalesce is helping us solve the problem of managing and transforming large volumes of messy, siloed data from systems like our ERP and HR platforms. By centralizing transformations, automating documentation, and making it easy to trace changes, it’s dramatically reduced the time we spend on manual work and made our team more productive—it’s a huge win for scaling our data operations.
Coalesce is an easy-to-learn and user-friendly tool for data transformations.
What do you like best about the product?
The way your data becomes visible through all the views and stages and the ease in which you can add your data.
What do you dislike about the product?
The deployment plan doesn't always work. Especially when changing a data type, Coalesce doesn't alway give me the correct deployment plan.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coalesce helps us transform data and prepare it for use in our visualization tools
Time savings and useability at the core of Coalesce
What do you like best about the product?
Coalesce feels very intuitive when building. I love that it follows a very straightforward flow, and makes things fast and easy to build. I love the column awareness and the ability to maintain data pipelines with ease.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think some improvements can be made around the graph ease to navigate and use. It would be helpful in some cases to have sorting, or organizing capabilities when working with large, complex pipelines. I probably don't leverage the table view as much as I should, but having the graph be a little easier to filter and organize/group would be a quality of life improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to maintain complex data pipelines with ease. It also allows us to implement change control, standard ways of working, and testing into our data pipelines. It saves us time by taking normally complex, time consuming flows and simplifying the development process. We love that it has a ton of flexibility, while still keeping things simple enough to train and onboard a data engineer in a fraction of the time other tools require.
Great tool
What do you like best about the product?
Once setup it makes work so much easier and they offer great support. Allmost everything possible in Snowflake is possible with Coalesce. Most important feature for us is the Column Lineage.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because of all the development and growth, sometimes there are still some bugs in the system and the git model/deploy calculations can be slow, but this is on their roadmap.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Single source of truth, data definitions, increasing our development speed and providing an environment that gives us an overview of our data.
Really helps speed up the development of pipelines!
What do you like best about the product?
Combines the best of both worlds with an intuitive UI driven workflow, and the flexibility of a code driven approach. Support is top notch.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, I think the only downside that I can think of is that Coalesce.io isn't as mature as some other options, which means that there may not be an option to integrate with other tooling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coalesce.io is at the heart of our data platform, and really helps our small data team manage our warehouse. It allows us to do everything faster, and pushes our standards for quality higher.
Coalesce has been a data transformation savior!
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is very user friendly. Coalesce has pushed many updates since we have onboarded and the quality of life improvement's have been greatly welcomed! The flexibility of Coalesce has helped us move over 100GB of data models from our BI tool into Snowflake in just 6 months with only two data engineers.
What do you dislike about the product?
To date I have nothing I dislike about Coalesce. My only complaint or request would be a built in job monitor. In order to be notified if a job fails via email etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have only 2 data engineers. We were tasked to move over 100GB worth of data models over to snowflake. Coalesce allowed us to hit our deadline of 6 months. This would have never been possible without Coalesce. We had to move this data while also handling daily business needs. Coalesce allowed us to be flexible and handle these daily needs while also building out over 100GB worth of data models in a short 6 month window. This was a massive win for us as a company as we only had 2 individuals working to get this over the finish line. Without Coalesce this simply would not have been possible to hit our target deadline.
Supercharging ETL for my Small Team
What do you like best about the product?
Coalesce's easy to grasp UI and column based lineage along with its snowflake centric approach are its biggest strengths. It allows us to focus on data modeling and less on the syntax. We were able to easily implement our first few models in record time. It easily integrates with our preferred vendor Snowflake which really enhances performance. Finally the standout customer support and onboarding process has been crucial for our continued success.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are certain features in the UI that are missing from an ease of use perspective, like an undo button. You have to rely on git commits to ensure you don't lose work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our first main project using coalesce allowed us to shift a manual process that required hours of intensive manual spreadsheets and automates the data flow to our ERP in under 5 minutes. It enables us to get data to our end users 4x more frequently and enables a better understanding of our companies financials.
