Snowflake

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as such, quite a well rounded solution
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Value add solutions so that we can see value of our data
Good for handling large datasets and helpful in areas like data
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The tool is good for handling large datasets, and since the tool is fully managed by Snowflake, you can scale up the compute part.
What needs improvement?
I don't think that the AI tools in Snowflake are good. AI tools in Snowflake can be improved. Even if the AI tools in Snowflake are good, I feel that it would be expensive. The cost of the AI part does not justify what you get from the product.
The price of the product can be lowered.
I think Snowflake should integrate with some tools like ChatGPT.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Snowflake for a year.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The product is scalable and can be considered a good fit for small and medium businesses.
How are customer service and support?
I haven't directly contacted the technical support team of the product.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have used Azure Databricks and Azure Data Factory. My company decided to use Snowflake since we wanted to be able to get up and running fast without much configuration-related mess. Snowflake doesn't give you the options with the configuration part since, by default, it is available out of the box. In terms of machine learning, Azure Databricks has the upper hand over other products.
How was the initial setup?
The product's deployment phase was quite okay.
The solution can be deployed in a few days or up to a week.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The product's price range falls between average to a bit expensive range. I think the tool is worth the money if you use it properly. It is difficult for me to speak about the number of users who use the product. My company pays around a couple of thousand dollars a month to 10,000 dollars or more.
What other advice do I have?
I think the main benefit is that with the tool, you can easily get things going without problems since you don't need to configure all the parameters manually. If you buy the tool for a bigger computing purpose, the engineer can pay more attention to the tool, and I guess after that, you can do more with the solution. I would ask others not to think about the data warehouses, as Snowflake takes care of such areas.
The benefits from the use of the product can be realized in around 40 minutes. It is a good technology for getting up and running quickly.
Snowflake is integrated with Azure Data Platform and other ETL tools in our company's ecosystem.
The integration capabilities of the product are good and you get what you pay for when it comes to Snowflake.
I rate the tool a seven to eight out of ten.
