We performed a comparison between Snowflake and TIBCO Live Datamart based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It has great flexibility whenever we are loading data and performs ELT (extract, load, transform) techniques instead of ETL."
"Snowflake is a database, and it is very good and useful. The most interesting part is that memory management is very good in Snowflake. For a business intelligence project, SQL Server is taking a lot of time for reporting services. There are a lot of calculations, and the reporting time is shown as two minutes, whereas Snowflake is taking just two seconds for the same reporting services."
"The solution's computing time is less."
"The pricing is reasonable and matches the rest of the market."
"The Mbps they have established is quite a bit faster than any other data warehouse."
"Everything is automatic, and I don't have to do any maintenance."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the snapshot database. In one second, you can just take a snapshot of the database for test purposes."
"You can create your own rules that include mathematic calculations."
"The solution has a powerful aggregating feature"
"It's not that flexible when compared to Oracle."
"If we can have a feature where the results can be moved to different tabs, so that I can compare the results with earlier queries before applying the changes, it would be great."
"The pricing of the solution should be much easier to calculate or find by yourself."
"Support needs improvement, as it can take several days before you get some initial support."
"We are yet to figure out how to integrate tools, such as Liquibase, to release changes to our data warehouse model."
"Snowflake could improve migration. It should be made easier. It would be beneficial if it could offer some OLTP features. One of our customers was using Oracle for both data warehousing and OLTP workloads, and they were able to migrate their data warehousing workloads to Snowflake without major issues. However, for some of their OLTP requirements, such as needing a response time of fewer than 10 milliseconds for certain queries, Snowflake is currently unable to provide that."
"Some SQL language functions could be included."
"Their strategy is just to leverage what you've got and put Snowflake in the middle. It does work well with other tools. You have to buy a separate reporting tool and a separate data loading tool, whereas, in some platforms, these tools are baked in. In the long-term, they'll need to add more direct partnerships to the ecosystem so that it's not like adding on tools around Snowflake to make it work. They can also consider including Snowflake native reporting tools versus partnering with other reporting tools. It would kind of change where they sit in the market."
"Improvements need to be made on the load balancing side."
"The solution's setup could be quicker and easier."
