More JumpMind SymmetricDS Pros →

"It has helped us to get onto the cloud quickly.""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.""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).""The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its user-friendly graphical interface.""It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good.""It's been able to do everything we require.""It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."

Cons
"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."

More JumpMind SymmetricDS Cons →

"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.""The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced.""One of the features that's in development is data privacy in the cloud, along with further SAP integration. For connectivity to SAP systems.""Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion.""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.""It needs integration with more data sources.""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."
