"The loading of data is the most valuable feature of Matillion ETL."
"The tool's middle-dimensional structure significantly simplifies obtaining the right data at the appropriate level. This feature makes deploying our applications easier since we utilize a single source without publishing data from various sources."
"The new version with the Productivity Cloud is very simple. It's easy to use, navigate, and understand."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its user-friendly graphical interface."
"The technical support is excellent."
"This is an established product with powerful data analysis and varied options for user entry points."
"In terms of which features I have found most valuable, I would say the importing and exporting features. Additionally, the data sorting, categorizing and summarizing features, especially how it can summarize based on categories. These are the key features."
"The tool is reliable, quick, and powerful."
"I am impressed with the tool's ability to customize."
"The solution is very stable. We haven't faced any issues with glitches or bugs. We haven't had any crashes."
"If you compare it to SQL, the memory and development times are very quick."
"The product offers very good flexibility."
"In the next release, we would like to have connections to more databases."
"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."
"The current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine."
"I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly."
"The tool's lineage is very weak."
"While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use."
"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."
"We implemented it a while ago, and we are trying to improve the data delivery performance. We are looking into how to get faster and automated reporting. We would need better designs and workflows."
"The solution is quite expensive and hard to install/configure."
"One problem is accessing the data using a solution other than SAS. The SAS data, which we create in the SAS, cannot be accessed by other tools. We can't open those data in other applications. So we need to have that application in place."
"Very little needs to improve but perhaps a nicer graphic interface and remaining competetive in the growing field of data analytics."
"The solution could use better documentation."
"I would like the tool to include the ability to automate the modifications of the integrations."
"We find we often have to go back and re-train users when there are changes made to the solution because the changes are not intuitive."
"The pricing of the solution needs to be improved. They need to work to make it more affordable."
