Our company uses the solution for building a data platform, data warehouse, and data transformation.

The product is somewhat used for data analytics, but it is mostly for data engineering.

The tool is good for handling large datasets, and since the tool is fully managed by Snowflake, you can scale up the compute part.

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.

I have been using Snowflake for a year.

The product is scalable and can be considered a good fit for small and medium businesses.

I haven't directly contacted the technical support team of the product.

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.

The product's deployment phase was quite okay.

The solution can be deployed in a few days or up to a week.

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.

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.

I use the tool with visualization tools like Tableau and Power BI. We load the data into these tools and use them to build customer reports. We often need to write scripts to perform transformations before sending the data to the visualization tools.

The tool's performance is good. I think it's the best in the game right now. It usually charges per query. For example, if you run a SQL query on Snowflake with the same number of data records, it would take less than half the time compared to running it on Microsoft. It has good documentation. You can pick up Snowflake if you have previous knowledge of SQL.

I can only access Snowflake from the web. It would be better if we could have an app that we can install locally on our laptops to connect to the server without needing to go to the web page. Apart from that, it's hard to point out any limitations in the tool.

I have been working with the product for four years.

The tool is scalable. I've used it for datasets with more than ten million records.

I only put data in and modify data. Most of the time, I don't require technical support. We occasionally had downtimes, and the data engineer would escalate these issues to Snowflake to resolve them.

The solution's deployment is simple. You purchase the license on the Internet—I think there's only a free trial for thirty days—and set it up like a Gmail account. It takes less than a minute to set up. You can set up your Snowflake server or use an enterprise vendor like AWS or Azure. Recently, Snowflake has been moving away from third-party vendors. They want to set up their remote infrastructure.

The tool's pricing is based on the number of queries you want on your database. The cost is small. To get the tool's pricing, you can do the math based on the cost per query, which is $0.002. If you're running your queries frequently, your charges will be higher than running fewer queries.

I would give Snowflake a ten out of ten in terms of performance and a nine out of ten in terms of scalability. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten.

The solution has use cases related to retail stores and sales.

The most valuable features of Snowflake are that you have to pay per usage, and you don't have to worry about the maintenance of the data warehouse because it is on the cloud.

The solution’s pricing could be cheaper. It would be helpful if Snowflake could create good reports instead of using Power BI reports.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten for stability.

Snowflake is a scalable solution. We have four to five customers for Snowflake who use it regularly.

The solution’s initial setup is straightforward.

The solution's deployment in a development environment takes only a couple of minutes.

Users have to pay a licensing fee for the solution, which is expensive.

Snowflake is deployed on the cloud. The solution is providing HIPAA compliance, which is sufficient. Users looking for a pay-as-you-use product available on Azure or AWS should consider Snowflake.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

The solution is very good for building data warehouses. However, it has some limitations if we need it for more use cases.

All the features of the product that are needed for the data warehouse are good. The solution enables the ingestion of data and the usability of preferred languages while creating the data. The performance of the engine is good. The solution speeds up the process of onboarding. We can connect to different sources and get the data very fast.

The tool does a very good job in reporting and data transformation. We can adapt it well to our needs. When we try to ingest data from many sources, it helps harmonize the data sources. It also helps with duplication and cleaning of the data. It is a pretty difficult and time-consuming task, and Snowflake helps us with it.

I do not like the proprietary format of the solution. Getting data out of the tool to third-party applications is difficult. The data science workloads must be improved. Snowflake has a lot to learn. There are better options in the market for data science.

I have been using the solution for almost three years.

The tool is stable. I rate the stability a nine or ten out of ten.

If we need to scale up, it will impact our costs. I work in a consulting company. We have a department dedicated to Snowflake. We have seven to eight people on our team. Our clients were medium-sized businesses with 1000 employees. They are focused on data analytics solutions. They also have departments for Azure and AWS. I rate the tool’s scalability a seven or eight out of ten.

I rate the ease of setup a seven or eight out of ten. The tool is deployed on the cloud. The time taken for deployment depends on the workload and how we build it.

The solution is expensive. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten.

We are partners. The impact of the solution’s automatic scaling feature on the workload depends on how we build our workload. The vendor must take a look at the market and how technologies evolve. The solution can do more in the area of distributed systems. If our use cases require data scientists, I rate the tool a three or four out of ten. I rate the tool a nine or ten out of ten for SQL data warehouse use cases. Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.

We use the solution extensively for reporting and analytics. We put data into it and publish reports. A report could be a dashboard. The data is used for data-driven insights and AI and MLOps. There are many use cases for the data that we procure on Snowflake.

The product has impacted collaboration across our teams. The correlation is quite easy. We use the solution because most of our life sciences and healthcare customers prefer it. Their preferences directly impact us as vendors and partners. We have to promote the same tools and technology they are familiar with.

The product is quite fast. There are several connectors in Snowflake that we could leverage for ingesting data. The data could be in zettabytes or petabytes. It is easily manageable.

The cost is a bit high. The storage cost and the extraction cost of data are high. The final invoicing cost will be higher if we do a rich data-oriented task on Snowflake.

I have been using the solution for close to three years.

The tool is stable and very powerful.

We have at least 1000 users in our organization. We will surely use the product in the future.

The solution is cloud-based. There is no on-premise solution. It has its own cloud. The installation is quite easy.

The solution is worth the money. It is good to use. It has a lot of features which are not available in other products. However, users must explore other products to control their costs.

Other products like Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure have competitive pricing. Snowflake costs 15 to 20% more than AWS and Microsoft Azure.

People who want to buy the product must initially use the free trial version. It can be installed on a desktop. The user can do a lot of R&D. We have a good playground. We can play with the components and learn them easily. We can learn how each component talks to each other, how the performance is, and how to create tables. There are a ton of tasks we can do.

After ingesting the data, we can perform advanced analytics and make models. The end users can do many things on the tool. It is quite an easy tool. I will advise any new user to install a free version. They will be able to learn about the product and get good insights when they work on their pilot project. Overall, I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

Snowflake is good for analytical purposes when you have a lot of historical or sales data that you need to release and use for different types of analysis, such as tracking sales and measuring the performance of your sales team and product.

The product's most important feature is unloading data to S3. It provides a single syntax query to analyze data directly from a database to an S3 bucket.

The product's performance could be improved.

I have been using Snowflake for a couple of months. We are using the latest version.

The product is stable.

We did not need to scale our Snowflake environment beyond what we needed. We have a fixed amount of traffic from a fixed number of clients. We know the load we need to handle, and based on that, our subscription is made.

Snowflake is cost-effective. The pricing is better than Firebolt. Firebolt is better when there is idle time. If we run Snowflake all the time, the cost will be higher.

We are working on two solutions for Snowflake, one for the cloud and one for on-premises. It has good documentation. If someone goes through it, they will quickly understand how it works. However, Firebolt's documentation is more comprehensive. If I need faster results, I'll prefer the Firebolt; if I need performance, I'll use Snowflake.

Overall, I rate it a nine out of ten.

I use it for data warehousing. I just design databases, put data in there, and get data out.

Although I haven't used it much, it is very fast and the performance is great.

It has some technical quirks that whoever is using it needs to be aware of. It doesn't enforce typical relational database constraints. If you're not aware of that, you can really put some bad data in there.

I've been using it for about three months.

I would give it a ten out of ten. I haven't seen it failover.

I've never had any issues with it. It is being extensively used. We have between a hundred and a thousand users using Snowflake.

I have not had any experience with customer support, but I've heard it's good.

I've heard it's quite expensive.

I would give Snowflake a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for data storage and integration purposes.

The solution's most valuable feature is path application.

They should improve the performance of the solution's transaction application.

It is a stable solution.

We have 20-30 solution users in our organization.

The solution's customer service is good.

The solution's initial setup was very straightforward.

The price for the solution's license depends on the use cases.

I recommend the solution to others and rate it as a nine. It efficiently processes the data and gets reports as well.
