Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, Alation, Collibra and others in Metadata Management."When you combine it with data lineage, every time you need to make a change, it allows you to do impact analysis on any changes and then connect to the end-users or data stewards so that they can be aware that a change is coming. That's one of the main benefits we use it for."
"The data catalog feature is pretty good."
"It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."
"It can scale to a great extent. It can handle the load that we are putting on it, which is about 5TBs."
"It has helped us to get onto the cloud quickly."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the ETL. The solution is open-source which provides advantages, such as good performance and high efficiency. Additionally, it supports three data types which eliminates predefining the data, and we can write script models in Python."
"The new version with the Productivity Cloud is very simple. It's easy to use, navigate, and understand."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice. It has a good graphical user interface. You can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool. If there is good connectivity to a cloud database, such as Snowflake, and you can have a lot of Snowflake functionality in the tool."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"There is room for improvement with respect to the connector and how to connect to the structured and unstructured database."
"There are always ways to improve things. For example, we can use AI to be able to find out something. When we are typing something, if we don't know the exact term, Artificial Intelligence would be useful to find terms that are phonetically or syntactically similar. Instead of having to type in the exact name, they can provide those in the list. So, they can provide AI support for the search because when you have thousands and thousands of terms, it is hard to remember all the names."
"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level."
"Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for three weeks or more."
"Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."
"There are certain functions that are available in other ETL tools which are still not present in Matillion ETL. It would be good to have more features."
"To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms. This would be helpful."
"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."
"The improvement area could be possible if the tool provides better integration capabilities with other ecosystems, including governance tools or data cataloging tools, as it is currently an area where the solution is lacking."
"It can have multi-environment support. We should be able to deploy it in different environments. Its integration with SAP connection is not so nice, which should be improved. It can also support an on-prem database."
