We performed a comparison between AWS Glue and SnapLogic 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 most valuable feature for me is the visual interface of AWS Glue."
"Glue is a NoSQL-based data ETL tool that has some advantages over IIS and ISAs."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is that it provides a GUI format with a drag-and-drop feature."
"AWS Glue is a stable and easy-to-use solution."
"AWS Glue's most valuable features are the data catalog, including crawlers and tables, and Glue Studio, which means you don't have to use custom code."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is its ease of use and good documentation. Additionally, we can do all the transformations that we need."
"I like its integration and ability to handle all data-related tasks."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."
"SnapLogic is an IPA tool that leverages a low code environment to connect to multiple sources, extract data, and store it in Azure data lake."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."
"It is a stable solution."
"What I found most valuable in SnapLogic is the ETL feature, particularly the Transform Snap Pack, for example, any kind of reading or writing on Transform Snaps. Other than that, all the third-party connectivity tools such as the SAP Snap Pack, Salesforce Snap Pack, Workday Snap Pack, even the ServiceNow Snap Pack, I find all those are pretty useful in SnapLogic."
"The product has only a few built-in transformations."
"There is a learning curve to this tool."
"While working on AWS Glue, I could not find any training material for it."
"The mapping area and the use of the data catalog from Glue could be better."
"Cost-wise, AWS Glue is expensive, so that's an area for improvement. The process for setting up the solution was also complex, which is another area for improvement."
"We face performance issues when using AWS Glue for data transformation and integration."
"The product is expensive for data streaming. This area needs improvement."
"I haven't looked into Glue in terms of seeking out flaws. I've not come across missing features."
"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"I don't think the support has better knowledge about technologies and tool support. There were lots of times when we had an issue, and it took me quite a long time to explain the problem. I feel like some of the support staff don't know their product well."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"Connecting to data behind enterprise firewalls has been tricky."
"One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping."
