"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"
"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)."
"It has helped us to get onto the cloud quickly."
"The technical support treats us well. They already have a support portal, and they are responsive, which helps."
"It can scale to a great extent. It can handle the load that we are putting on it, which is about 5TBs."
"The performance of data migration could be smoother."
"More endpoints need to be supported by AWS Database Migration Service. There's also a need for more control and transparency on the product, including better technical support."
"This solution can offer more tweaks where the latency can be brought down to fifteen seconds."
"This solution is compatible with only AWS."
"The cost is a concern. We use DMS because of its simplicity, but the price could definitely be more competitive."
"The initial setup can be difficult for beginners in AWS Database Migration Service. You will need the training to complete it."
"There is no connectivity to the source database or the target database."
"The live duplication has a delay of two minutes, which can be an issue."
"Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."
"Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."
"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."
"When using the SQL loader type there were not a lot of pre-processing features for the data. For example, if there is a table with twenty columns, but we only want to load ten columns. In that case, we can use a security script to select the specific columns needed. However, if we want to perform extensive pre-processing of the data, I faced some challenges with Matillion ETL. I did not encounter many challenges, but my overall experience is limited as I only have three years of experience."
"The current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine."
"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."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"Our main challenge currently is that Matillion runs on an EC2 instance, limiting us to running only two processes simultaneously at the entry level."
