"Simplify Enterprise Data and AI"

5/5

What do you like best about Snowflake?

Many things I like. Starting with great all round security features build in. Next one will be scalability because users can scale compute and storage resources up or down to meet demands. Next one is ease of use and Management and real multi-cloud and cloud-native. Las willbe ease of integration and ease of implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Snowflake?

Only a few smaler things. First will be still small community. Growing but small.Next one - migration can be little complex and dificult. Last but not least will be cost complexity -pay-as-you-go model can lead to rapidly escalating costs without monitoring and optimization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Snowflake is its ease of use and quick implementation. It is easy to set up, requires minimal infrastructure management, and offers excellent performance with automatic scaling. Running and managing queries is simple and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Snowflake?

One downside of snowflake is the cost, which can increase quickly if usage is not monitored properly. The separation of compute and storage can also make billing a bit confusing for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?

Snowflake helps solve problems related to managing large volumes of data, slow query performance, and data silos across teams. It allows us to store, process, and analyze data in one centralized platform without worrying about infrastructure management. This improves reporting speed, enables faster insights, and helps teams make better data-driven decision while scaling easily as data grows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
