We performed a comparison between Matillion ETL and Zapier based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The loading of data is the most valuable feature of Matillion ETL."
"The technical support treats us well. They already have a support portal, and they are responsive, which helps."
"It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"We allow non-technical people to use Matillion to load data into our data warehouse for reporting. Thus, it is easy enough to use that we don't always have to get a technical person involved in setting up a data movement (ETL)."
"It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."
"The product has a good user interface."
"Matillion ETL has great Git integration that is perfect and convenient to use."
"Zapier handles everything under the sun that you would think you need in automation. It is the most mature integration platform and service on the market."
"Zapier luckily has a wide range of integrations, I would say."
"What's most valuable in Zapier is its simplicity, seamlessness, and smooth plug-in, so you won't need to build code for every action. I'm not a developer, but I can use Zapier."
"The product's most valuable feature is automation."
"Zapier is a really good tool for connecting multiple different platforms and data sources. For example, with Quickbase, I can easily integrate data from other sources like AWS or task-tracking platforms such as ClickUp or Asana."
"Webhooks are the most valuable feature of Zapier."
"The most valuable feature of Zapier is it saves me time doing repetitive tasks."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is very intuitive and has a very flat learning curve."
"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."
"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."
"I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly."
"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level."
"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."
"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."
"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."
"To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms. This would be helpful."
"I think that this solution should have more apps connected to it."
"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors."
"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."
"The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments."
"System-to-system is fine, but when it comes to system-to-user, where Zapier is helping to communicate to a user, that's a one-way communication. If that user has to perform some action on that notification, the action isn't handled by Zapier. So there's no way to orchestrate that and it's very cumbersome."
"With Zapier, improvements are required in the areas of concerns like bugs, ease of use, and documentation."
"It is not worth the money if you have a little bit of a technical mind...Zapier is not able to set up different modules. When automation doesn't work, it's not that easy to find why it didn't work."
"Zapier needs to improve in the same way most RPA solutions should, such as Robocorp, Make, or UiPath. They are not good at helping you find the connections that you need for the problem that you have. For example, if need something on Instagram. I'm going to have to do research for hours to be able to find the components or the app, which is going to do what I need it to do. It makes it difficult to use the system when you don't know what to use."
