Future of data bases is already here
What do you like best about the product?
No need to manage, always up, no DB Administrator needed anymore. Snowflake SQL is really easy and fully featured. Cost is fairly easy to project and allocate. Obviously, it scales like a charm. And did I mention that storage is dirt cheap? They basically are just passing S3's cost...
What do you dislike about the product?
On boarding experience takes longer than it should: I had to wait 3 days to get it activated...
Also, you can get a vanity address but it requires to talk to their sales teams and is a more convoluted process than it should really be...

Sales & Marketing Analytics Data Lakes
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is probably the easiest Data base to try for free, since it does not require management, and you get enough free credits to play with it for a while. If you reach out to their Sales team, you can obtain a vanity address for your instance such as MyCompany.snowflakecomputing.com.

Data Platform Modernization

The fact that it auto scales and better manages compute and storage. Adding support for GCP is awesome.

It would be good if you could add feature to manage partitions on top of the base functionality.

Theresa's Snowflake review
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to separate functional areas of the business to their own warehouse and allow them to work in their own environment without affecting the rest of the business
What do you dislike about the product?
The integration from Databricks if using okta
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are replacing our Hadoop environment and Datawarehouse while reducing complexity and providing a more reliable environment
Innovation at it's finest
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake didn't just develop a cutting edge DW and stop there. Instead they ask "how can I make this better for our customers and partners" on a daily basis. These innovations show and contribute to the Blizzard that is Snowflake!
What do you dislike about the product?
With the exceptional growth of the company, it's difficult to determine who is who, what rep is over each area, and who to reach out to to solve a problem. But this is a great problem to have - a massive growth spurt!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are helping companies ditch legacy platforms and establish best practices for moving to the cloud. Our mutual customers have been most blown away by the scalability and query speed Snowflake provides.
Think Big
What do you like best about the product?
Constant innovation to continue to be the best. They took a brilliant idea to separate compute and storage, and keep improving the scope that it can be used for, and making thins easier to maintain.
What do you dislike about the product?
The current limitations are already being addressed, including integration with streaming data and better multi-cloud support, and replication.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scalability and cost allocation to business units
What a Data Warehouse Should Be
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is exactly as described in all their literature. There is no smoke and mirrors here, its all in the platform and it just works!
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing I can think of right now. Wishing more organizations will wake up and try the platform. Data Sharing would be better if more orgs were on the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Less time worrying about right sizing our infrastructure for us and our clients. Lights our systems ops and really focused on providing data value to our customers.
So far pretty good and informative.
What do you like best about the product?
I have been able to get some good technical advice on incorporating Snowflake. Since I started looking at Snowflake less than 2 months ago and launched our first app on it yesterday, need all the help I can get. What I love about Snowflake is its speed and flexible sizing for concurrency.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too new for me to complain. I will need to get more experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our product would not have been able to launch under Redshift because of concurrency issues on 75 terabytes of data. With Snowflake...no problem.
Unlock the data value
What do you like best about the product?
We were on Redshift and we could not scale. We had an engineer dedicated to keeping the lights on. It was not sustainable. Moving to Snowflake allowed us to lift and shift our data warehouse and expand to the data storage and compute that we needed to run the business with a push of a button. That headcount was moved to building features to deliver the company value.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake is a great data lake, however I think there could be growth there in order to support schemas as well as better querying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can scale infinitely and we can unblock teams so they aren't waiting for data. The feedback cycle has decreased. We actually spend more money on snowflake than Redshift because the data is more valuable and useful now.
