Long term Snowflake customer from financial services industry
What do you like best about the product?
Tri-Secret Secure : customer held key ensures that service representatives can not "see" our data.
Dynamic Compute Sizing : we can resize our compute resources (known as snowflake warehouses) to react to needs of the Business or to minimize cost.
Replication : we can replicate entire databases from one region (or cloud) to another easily and very quickly which is important with financial services data.

What do you dislike about the product?
Account Management : while we can see our consumption (compute and storage) online, we don't have access to see our current credit balance and forecasted usage.
Compute Resource Rationalization : we don't have the insight into whether the sizing of our compute resources are appropriate (too large or too small). Sizing becomes more of an art than a science.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've solved the issue of capacity management. Our previous solution required an upgrade to increase compute or storage sizing. Storage is only limited by the size of our budget and we now can resize compute ourselves. The net result is we have consumed much more data at the same price point as our previous solution which makes everyone (Business users, Finance team, and us) very happy.

Revolutionized the Data Warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Separation of storage vs compute and very transparent billing
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance with visualization tools is not the best
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving problems for good access to data and quick onboarding of users
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it. start small because costs can otherwise add up quickly. Don't jump on to big migrations without testing the difficult parts.

Great Performance And Ease Of Use
What do you like best about the product?
Its ease of use. The solution feels natural for people that have worked with relational databases before because of its implementation of basic SQL. However, combining structured and semistructured data in a query is extremely simple, and the performance is impressive. You can pull millions of rows in an instant by just setting the correct warehouse size.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is little to dislike about Snowflake. Its performance and ease of use are incredible. However, Snowflake can still be considered a newcomer to the market, so the breadth of solutions that integrate and communicate with Snowflake is somewhat reduced compared to other products (SQL Server, Oracle, Redshift, etc.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to improve the performance of our ETL processes. We had ETLs that ran for close to 15 - 20 hours to move data into the data warehouse. After multiple reviews, we identified that there was little we could do with our ETLs. But moving the DWH to Snowflake was the solution to all our problems.
