We performed a comparison between Matillion ETL 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."It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services."
"It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good."
"Matillion ETL has great Git integration that is perfect and convenient to use."
"It has improved the costs of managing my customer’s data."
"It is an incredibly user-friendly and intuitive tool, making the learning curve quite smooth"
"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 most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its user-friendly graphical interface."
"It is pretty user-friendly, even for people who aren't super technical."
"The connection with SOAP is the best feature."
"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution."
"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 scalable solution."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"SnapLogic is a great platform for establishing integrations among various systems or patterns by using any kind of interface. If something is not supported by predefined snaps – snaps are connectors in SnapLogic – you can create them (custom snaps) or write a script."
"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."
"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
"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."
"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."
"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 current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine."
"Unlike Snowflake which automatically takes care of upgrading to the latest version and includes additional features, with Matillion ETL we need to do this ourselves."
"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."
"While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use."
"It needs some more snaps. I would like to see some of the features be changed in some of the snaps."
"What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."
"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."
"We'd like zero downtime in the future."
"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."
