Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It has a well-structured suite of complimentary tools for data integration and so forth.""I like that we can synch and run a large query. I also like that we can work with a large amount of data. You don't need to work separately, as it's a ready-made solution. It also comes with a built-in machine-learning feature. Once we start inputting the data, it will suggest some things related to the data, and we can come up with nice dashboards and statistics from a vast amount of data.""The setup is simple.""The query tool is scalable and allows for petabytes of data.""There are some performance features like partitioning, which you can do based on an integer, and it improves the performance a lot.""The initial setup process is easy.""The product is serverless. We only need to write SQL queries to analyze the data. We need to pay based on the number of queries. The retrieval time is very less. Even if you write large queries, the tool is able to bring back data in a few seconds.""What I like most about BigQuery is that it's fast and flexible. Another advantage of BigQuery is that it's easy to learn."

Cons
"I understand that Snowflake has made some improvements on its end to further reduce costs, so I believe BigQuery can catch up.""I would like to see version-based implementation and a fallback arrangement for data stored in BigQuery storage. These are some features I'm interested in.""The process of migrating from Datastore to BigQuery should be improved.""It would be beneficial to integrate additional tools, particularly from a business intelligence perspective.""For greater flexibility and ease of use, it would be beneficial if BigQuery offered more third-party add-ons and connectors, particularly for databases that don't have built-in integration options.""An area for improvement in BigQuery is its UI because it's not working very well. Pricing for the solution is also very high.""We'd like to see more local data residency.""I rate BigQuery six out of 10 for affordability. It could be cheaper."

"Only the data from the columns that reached 2GB will actually decrease. Other columns below 2GB in size do not leave the disk."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I have tried my own setup using my Gmail ID, and I think it had a $300 limit for free for a new user. That's what Google is offering, and we can register and create a project."
  • "BigQuery is inexpensive."
  • "One terabyte of data costs $20 to $22 per month for storage on BigQuery and $25 on Snowflake. Snowflake is costlier for one terabyte, but BigQuery charges based on how much data is inserted into the tables. BigQuery charges you based on the amount of data that you handle and not the time in which you handle it. This is why the pricing models are different and it becomes a key consideration in the decision of which platform to use."
  • "The price is a bit high but the technology is worth it."
  • "The price could be better. Usually, you need to buy the license for a year. Whenever you want more, you can subscribe to it, and you can use it. Otherwise, you can terminate the license. You can use it daily or monthly, and we use it based on a project's requirements."
  • "The solution is pretty affordable and quite cheap in comparison to PDP or Cloudera."
  • "BigQuery pricing can increase quickly. It's a high-priced solution."
  • "The pricing is good and there are no additional costs involved."

  • "Our pricing was based on server instances and it was actually very cheap compared to Oracle. I guess you get what you pay for."
