Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It can scale to a great extent. It can handle the load that we are putting on it, which is about 5TBs.""The technical support treats us well. They already have a support portal, and they are responsive, which helps.""The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the ETL. The solution is open-source which provides advantages, such as good performance and high efficiency. Additionally, it supports three data types which eliminates predefining the data, and we can write script models in Python.""Matillion ETL has great Git integration that is perfect and convenient to use.""It's been able to do everything we require.""The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation.""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.""It is an incredibly user-friendly and intuitive tool, making the learning curve quite smooth"

"I found the initial setup very easy.""Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish.""WhereScape's deployment package is a fantastic feature. The application allows for selecting specific objects that you would like to deploy from one environment to another rather than deploying the entire database.""The tool supports multiple target update methods.""WhereScape RED has improved our business's ability to generate needed reporting without requiring a large team of developers to manually code all of the necessary plumbing.""Their support staff are very knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. I feel their support staff go above and beyond to assure their customers are satisfied.""I like the data vault implementations.""RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."

Cons
"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.""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.""It needs integration with more data sources.""The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced.""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.""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.""Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."

More Matillion ETL Cons →

"No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded .""They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box.""It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully.""Technical support isn't the best.""Customization could be better.""The solution can be a little more user-friendly on enterprise-level where people use it.""Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved.""The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application."
