Fast, Affordable, Scalable

  • March 12, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Beats Redshift in performance and cost. The in-time snapshot to roll back data to a previous state is also pretty incredible. The data storage costs is very low in comparison to Redshift and the computational speed far exceeds what Redshift can handle. DUO push as a two step authentication is a bonus.
What do you dislike about the product?
Extra fees for security and vpc. Not really a big fan of paying roughly 30-50% more for AWS VPC routing.
Also there might be a need for more support hours since databases can be used 24/7 downtime can occur anytime. During a regional, but not national Holiday, most of the company was out and there wasn't any method to contact support team besides leaving a phone number and waiting it out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data Analysis, Big Data. Parallel queries.

Reaped benefits in roughly 1/3 the cost of Redshift and in significantly improved query times.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Better support hours. During one of the regional but not national US holidays it was hard to reach anyone for support. Wondering if there are better support pricing plans.

Also would be nice to not have to pay significantly more for AWS security integration features. All in all, it still beats out Redshift by miles.

Fast Data storage

  • March 12, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is easy to use, and abstracts away a lot of the annoying problems of database management I had to deal with when running my own.

There's poor visibility into query optimization, but that's not so bad because it runs so fast. I also don't know how optimally I use all of my warehouses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing large quantities of data without worrying about scaling databases
