A better data warehouse on Cloud **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Pavan Kumar Y. | Senior Data Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2021 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Its features like separation of storage and compute, on the fly scalable compute, data sharing, data cloning, and supports may languages to connect with. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Only supports JavaScript for stored procedures **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** Modern computation of snowflakes makes it stand out. I recommend using Snowflake as a data warehouse. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Platform migration from on-premise to cloud. Its compute speed is the benefit. ### 8. One of the best cloud database **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 03, 2021 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Cloud storage, Performance, Pay as you use model, new updates, events, integration with other tools, SQL Compatible, Visualization tools, marketplace **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Stored procedures, functions and other elements still use java syntax, No UI Downloadable Client, No dark mode in UI **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Store lots of data and use ELT logic which saves on performance and integration hassle, warehouse scalability reduce cost ### 9. Easy to Impliment **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Andries v. | Data Scientist/Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2020 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Cloud solution is easy to impliment - We had it up and running in an hour or two. IDE remembers the tabs and queries you had open. Cheap solution to impliment. Costing platform is great. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Limited functionality in terms of functions, sub queries and some flexible dynamic tricks that SQL can do , that Snowflake can't. **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** Really easy to implement and their costing platform is great. There is a bit of learning and frustrations if you switch from MS SQL, as snowflake has its own little quirks and some more advanced sub quering and transformations that does not work. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Setup our datawarehouse over a weekend and was able to bring together different data sources. ### 10. The main web-based data center is Snowflake **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eliza R. | Information Technology Specialist, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 04, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Snowflake offers a great virtual storage space, providing workload, virtual storage and a great general usability. It allows our team to take the initial MS SQL document query from the OLTP databases, transform it into a Snowflake SQL format and operate in seconds or minutes the same request on Snowflake. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** In several respects, it is required to use SQL language varies from Redshift, so your team must have some knowledge about it. Also, it often shows some syntax issues and, if you contact the customer support, they are usually pretty slow. Snowflake really needs to improve their technical help for client-identified mistakes. **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** Snowflake is the perfect tool for data warehouse. It is specially suitable if you need a huge number of data fragments, as it's able to offer more reliable data exposure and fast queries, which ensure the data can be accessed much more easily. While the benefits and drawbacks of optimizing the efficiency of similar cloud data storage systems are not fully realized by Snowflake. In general, snowflake is less likely to mean knobs and leakage with configuration. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Snowflake is the main web-based data center for my company. It deals with the need to merge diverse sources of data in one data source and to identify ideas of our business in an easier way than with other platforms. The Snowflake server is operated by the IT staff, so they take care of occurred views to automate search storage and load. ### 11. Snowflake busted up our performance **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Monish K. | Snowflake busted up our performance, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** snowflake query analysis , query history metadata & snowflake support **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** some syntax changes, and the drop downs are some times slow **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** improve your performance **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** we have built a parallel query executes based on query dependency , which wouldn't be possible without snowflake ### 12. SDM-snowflake data Management **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Food & Beverages | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 27, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** the best thing about snowflake is it uses smaller disk space and easy to implement in work space and it offer better data quality with good structure and it consists schema is in logical model and also it is web support one can access with minimum internet anywhere any time. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** snowflake is having few dislike as well one is complexity to source query joins,and limitations in data export you can extract up to certain MB,Real time refreshing is required and having single table dimensions. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** it helps to solve the business problem and could data management will help perform a better reporting and proper structured of puling data via query to save manpower and timely work getting done it will helps to every organisations for a balanced data management. ### 13. Great noops db **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Daniel N. | Data Engineer, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 12, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Separate compute and storage for easy workload management. Don't have to think about distribution strategies or indexes. It's fast. For such a young database, I'm impressed by the feature support. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Hands down not being able to load json into a regular table. I HATE how you need to insert json into a one column type variant table then flatten out. This should be natively supported imo. **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** If cost is a consideration, check out the auto suspend feature for warehouses. If you are only getting queries during certain parts of the day, you can have snowflake shut down compute resources after a given amount of inactivity to save on cost. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Different workloads for different use cases. We demo our product with data served from Snowflake; I love how I can allocate a bunch of resources to that specific use case. ### 14. Snowflake is Snowballing **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 12, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** 1) Speed (single execution) - everything is ridiculously fast. I'm no longer restrained by what I can do because of speed constraints found on other systems. 2) Storage - super cheap storage is huge for me as a developer. My job is so much easier when I can log and save more data. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** 1) latency between executions. We execute a lot of statements at once, but the throughput of those statements is slow. It would help if we could submit multiple statements in a batch. 2) Need real stored procedures... the current development preview of procedures is disappointing. I would not call them "procedures". I would call them "internal APIs". Looping in the current procedure just submits SQL statements that have the same latency problems as item 1. Makes them pretty much unusable for row by row processing of many rows in a loop (which is the only REAL reason you should ever have to use looping in a SQL language). We have two situations for looping at speed row by row for thousands of rows... row by row processing of data where some rows could have an error, while others do not. The other is just super complicated calculations that just are more maintainable in a loop (lead and lag functions might make it possible, but more difficult to maintain). 3) support has gone down hill since the early days... we are now getting responses from front line support with responses that are not helpful at all. We always have to get to 2nd tier support before we are helped at all. Front line support just responds with stuff that we already know that doesn't help us at all. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** 1) Reporting on a decent size data warehouse that isn't perfectly optimized. Reports that were taking 50 minutes in the past on old systems, take minutes with Snowflake with data structure changes. 2) Transactional processing - We are recently using Snowflake for a "middle layer" of integrating between multiple systems. We use snowflake to keep track of many jobs that are sending and receiving data between many systems. ### 15. Good exposure for beginners **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** ankit g. | Mgr. MDM Solutions, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Essentials session was very informative for me as a beginer **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** I feel this was the first time and that's why a few things were missing e.g. checkins over limit and am sure it will all be taken care by next time. Labs can be better. Solutions demos could have been more technical **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** we are the new customers to snowflake and was her to get more insights. I clearly see a huge revolution not just in our company however all around the world who are using traditional systems today. ### 16. I think Snowflake could be an excellent choice as a data warehouse **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 27, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Snowflake provides the flexibility to use the data warehouse by multiple analysts at the same time. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** I think you can add more features to the web interface. The way I see it, it eventually should have most of the features a modern IDE has, in terms of syntax highlighting, autocomplete, refactoring. One simple example: it could be great if I could collapse a query. It happens a lot that you run multiple queries from the same worksheet. Another **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** Before start using a data warehouse, you should understand the use case. It's weird to start paying for running queries. It's not very intuitive. We are used to purchase a product and pay for that. It's strange to pay differently if someone was running a inefficient query. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Security analytics. ### 17. Simple but fast. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Wicks J. | Senior Data Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2018 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** I like the fact that we have got many disparate data sources into 1 place. The queries issued against the data are quite fast and the data is stored optimally, taking up less space than they use in the source systems. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Scheduling is needed within snowflake itself. A full fledged client would be preferred to the web interface. More features within the SQL code itself is needed, like correlated sub queries in the select, instead of only in the where clause. **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** Get one of the recommended ETL tools to get your data into snowflake and give snowflake a trial, you will be amazed at how fast you can get all your business data into snowflake and the the speed of your queries. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have been able to join multiple disparate data sources into one place and are able to query across these data sources to get more insights into the business operations. ### 18. Easy to start figuring out how to finish **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sameer M. | Principal Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 03, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Starting support is great and helpful....but the next steps need a little bit of learning on my part as well as support from snowflake. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Nothing in particular, just during learning of snowflake if the sales guys disappear documentation is not updated. If you get stuck, the documentation only gets cleared with snowmen. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Data lake for storing trillions of events ..... ### 19. Interesting to hear about the future potentials **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Logistics and Supply Chain | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 04, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** I enjoyed hearing about the future enhancements as well as how Snowflake can integrate with so many different platforms **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** The training was a bit of a mess. Too many problems with permissions on the training accounts and it was incredibly slow - I would consider having multiple training sessions for various levels of data warehouse knowledge **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are still looking at Snowflake as a potential cloud data warehouse solution, but it would eliminate the issues with having multiple SQL servers as well as other servers to hold our data ### 20. Fills the gap for a performant cloud warehouse **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Before Snowflake, you couldn't have it all. You either sacrificed performance or used flat files, sacrificing the benefits of an RDBMS. Snowflake has really figured out how to give you both in a way that's great. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** It's almost too open. For an enterprise, the set up for security is very difficult and feels much like a bolted on afterthought. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Analysts have trouble querying flat files, even with tools on top of the flat files. It's also slow. Snowflake solves a lot of this for the analysts. ### 21. good diversity of topics **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** enjoyed a lot of the topics covered overall. It was a good way to increase exposure to the stack of tools we have access to. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** signup / capacity warnings. i didnt get into two sessions my first day that i wanted. the food was not particularly allergen friendly. also please create some breaks! some of the breakout sessions were fairly high level, would have enjoyed more technical/analitycal **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** redshift was way too slow and had a lot of management. just starting out and migrating now. ### 22. Truly the best data management platform on the market **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Snowflake has consistently exceeded expectations in terms of performance and capabilities. Their platform is smooth and intuitive and, above all, fast. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** The worksheets can use a lot of work. For example, there's no easy way - to my knowledge - to download a script aside from copy/pasting into a text editor. THere's also no way to save or share scripts across teams, which can be annoying **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Snowflake enabled our products to go to the next level by ingesting an order of magnitude more data. ### 23. Great simple interface where it's easy to add the right resources for the job **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Douglas D. | Head of Data Science, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 12, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Very clear UI. Easy to resize resources to get the job done Python connector works great **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Pretty inefficient with very wide tables and with INSERT statements Not 100% stable; things hang or shut down periodically **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Great for customer and business research with a very large dataset ### 24. Awesome data-warehousing Tool **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Padmanesh N. | Big Data Solution Architect and Spatial Data Specialist, Information Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 27, 2018 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** This feature is helpful for user to increase the node size and config depending on their need. There is no need to wait for hardware to be in place whenever we increase the dataset. Snowflake provides the option to increase the node or cluster size whenever required. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Of course, every product has pluses and minuses. From that perspective, Snowflake has to improve there spatial parts. I mean it doesn't have much stuff in geo-spatial queries. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Valuable Features Scalability: Ability to load huge number of datasets (I have experience with petabytes of data) and process those things. Storage is not limited. We can increase whatever we want. Performance: The distributed architecture of Snowflake has the capacity to process huge dataset faster and we can scale up and down as per the need. Flexibility: This feature is helpful for user to increase the node size and config depending on their need. There is no need to wait for hardware to be in place whenever we increase the dataset. Snowflake provides the option to increase the node or cluster size whenever required. Multi-formatted accessibility: The Snowflake engine has the capability to read the following file formats: CSV, DELIMITER, FIXEDWIDTH, AVRO, JSON, BZIP2, GZIP, LZOP. The user can choose which is best for their requirements. Configuration: Even-though its running in AWS platform, it beats their platform product. Actually I feel more flexible than Redshift. Snow-pipe: Snow-Pipe is better system to feed stream data to snowflake database. This is really helpful for less self-life triggering datasets. ### 25. revolutionary in data warehousing **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Rakesh Kumar V. | Data Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 03, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** compute and storage are separate, connectors are available for different tools like spark, Rstudio, python and storge format **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** dont have option to convert xml and json files to tables. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** data engineering is the key focus. integrating data with diffrent sources. ### 26. New user with some feedback **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** I like the web-UI front end with the ability to still write SQL code. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** I had issues with the fact that all column and database names were in upper-case. But one of the experts here helped me out with the issue. It might be good to have an option to use either upper or lower case. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're a new partner and Snowflake is helping us find partners that will mutually benefit both of our companies. ### 27.

Simple to use datawarehouse solution for extremely large data **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Market Research | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 09, 2018 **What do you like best about Snowflake?** Snowflake can handle the extremely large data -- on the order of thousands of TB -- that we have, and provide us with rapid results. **What do you dislike about Snowflake?** Poor documentation -- although clustering is Snowflake's killer feature, figuring out why, after calling 'alter table recluster' on a table, that table is only .001% more clustered than before is painful. It's not clear why you wouldn't just sort the table on insert instead of calling recluster, since recluster on a static dataset incurs the penalty of insertion twice. Not much documentation about how data will be loaded, just vague statements from their tech team that "if your data is naturally clustered, Snowflake will recognize that." Well..... explain what you mean, please. **Recommendations to others considering Snowflake:** It's easy to use but pretty expensive and can be a little bit opaque to figure out. **What problems is Snowflake solving and how is that benefiting you?** Primarily we have been using Snowflake to run adhoc reports on the behalf of clients.
