Awesome data warehouse tool with pretty good UI and decent python API
What do you like best about the product?
Snowsight, the new snowflake browser UI, is set up well for quickly drafting queries and has some helpful, albeit basic, visualization tools built in. The python connector API is pretty good too.
What do you dislike about the product?
A couple of irregularities in setting up the python connector on M1 macs, and some minor bugs in the snowsight ui (forgiveable since it's still pre-release IIUC)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drafting queries to pull data for our models, sharing data, data warehousing, and row-level security. It's an essential part of our organization's data engineering pipelines. Visualization tools allow for quickly sharing some high level summaries of our data.

Probably the best warehouse in the market. It is definitely a bit expensive though.
What do you like best about the product?
Governance is really straight forward and queries run very fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
Expensive. No transparency on specs of warehouses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able (for the most part) to execute our queries very quickly and organize them well.
Snowflake best datawarehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is very modern cloud data warehouse which reduces the complexity of designing Analytical data solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snowflake doesn't allow to share a database from one snowflake account to other account which has different cloud vendor and located at different region.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to design the data warehouse as per our business requirement and that too in very much feasible way and with many other features.
Good Database and Security
What do you like best about the product?
It has good security and also good integrations with several other tools. We used it with Holistics as an SQL extractor and it works great. Is very good at extracting data and very quick to show results.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my experience but I think is more of a company policy about security. It would be great if Snowflake has its data extractor or a SQL extractor, it would be very useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Is our current data warehouse for our app data. It also helps us to consolidate several datasets as our App, Enterprise Resource Planning and Customer Relationship Management.
good enough terraform support in snowflake
What do you like best about the product?
Was able to configure and manage via terraform provider
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all config is available via terraform
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simplified data analysis and allowed us to move expensive queries off of our production systems.
SNOWFLAKE DATAWAREHOUSE
What do you like best about the product?
What I liked the most was the possibility of building a data pipeline within the tool with the TASKS functions and the integrations with other services such as the AWS bucket
What do you dislike about the product?
On the other hand, the tasks service was difficult to have an overview of the entire scenario, especially in execution logs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake is currently helping me with the centralization of my company's data and supporting the construction of the data platform in general.
Best tool for cloud based data warehousing implementation
What do you like best about the product?
Data sharing, zero-copy cloning, time travel
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing to be disliked about it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data Ingestion/Processing with separate storage and processing capabilities through virtual warehouses
Lightning Fast & instantly Scalable Warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is best for unpredictable workloads or sudden spikes in user queries.
1. Since Compute & storage are decoupled, queries don't get queued for resources.
2. Another killing feature is it has Auto Pause & auto suspend modes which stops consuming credits when no queries are running.
3. Snowflake is an apparent winner compared to AWS Redshift when it comes to maintenance. Almost zero admin tasks everything is taken care of for you. You can either change a warehouse’s size or increase the number of clusters with almost zero downtime seamlessly.
4. As already mentioned it is best in the situations where you get temporary high workloads, so you can increase the compute capacity without increasing storage.
5. Built-in support for Semistructured data like JSON is worth mentioning.
6. Lift & shift from On-prem Relational DW to Snowflake is easy compared to other cloud warehouses.

What do you dislike about the product?
Complicated Billing. Snowflake’s On-Demand pricing model can be enticing initially, but it can be very unpredictable in the long run, and its cost increases as you go higher. As compared to Snowflake, Redshift has a simple pricing structure based on redshift clusters. Redshift also offers Reserved Instance Pricing, which allows you to unlock 75 percent savings which was the primary driver for switching from Snowflake to ASW redshift for one of our customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Highly scalable Data Warehousing solution which can serve organizations' BI, Analytics & Decision support needs.
Highly useful for unprecedented /workloads which need instant scaling.
Helps quick migration from On-prem relational data warehouse(Oracle) to scalable cloud snowflake warehouse.
Flexibility to choose any public cloud storage be it AWS/Azure or GCP.

Perfect cloud database and warehousing tool
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake has enabled the team to achieve new goals when it comes to data warehousing and querying data to draw insights. It has an easy-to-use and accessible interface.
Before switching to Snowflake, getting connections and data sanity was a challenge. Its pay per use model allows the optimise allocation and budgets and helps plan better.
It uses standard SQL which is used by most of the team members beforehand and documentation is readily available.

What do you dislike about the product?
While logging in using the single sign-on, sometimes it takes a high loading time to log in. Navigating across the previous ran queries under the history tab is a bit cumbersome. Not that great at managing unstructured data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake has helped the analyst team to get more efficient at storing as well as querying data. It is pretty easy to use and has a very small learning curve. It allows managing roles at different levels to allow customised data access to the wide userbase.
Game changer tool for data warehousing needs
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake allows aggregation of hundreds of databases across different clouds and platforms into one single data warehouse which helps provide customers visibility of all their data across all our products.
It is much more than a database in cloud with massive amounts of features and functionality offered. (high volume data storage and handling, quick response time)

What do you dislike about the product?
Navigating and querying unstructured data in snowflake is bit of a challenge.
Switching between the data can be made better and we have to save the query snippets for future usage as functionality to create a link for any specific query is not there. Rest everything looks great.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data into Snowflake is extremely easy with fast API responses and scalable infra for data storage.
Its pay per use pricing model allows flexibility in terms of selecting the right package for the organisation and optimize for cost.
