Simple, stable, and allows us to handle data from various sources, but needs enterprise features for logging, recoverability, and monitoring
If I could give any advice to the guys who are developing it, I would suggest them to really look at the enterprise features, such as being able to log what's going on, being able to capture the current state of processing, and being able to recover from error situations. So, there should be a focus on logging, recoverability, and monitoring. We should be able to monitor what's going on, and in case of any issues, we should be able to recover and restart processing and other things. For scalability and performance, I would probably suggest the Pushdown feature so that you can do the transformation directly on the data source. You do not need to do that calculation within the ETL server. For this, you should be aware of the type of data because each database or kind of storage, such as Hadoop, has its own ANSI standard or language, such as SQL. Microsoft, Oracle, and IBM have their own language. Based on the feedback that I have got, its initial setup takes some time. It could perhaps be simpler.

Used for wrangling or transforming data from sources like S3 and Databricks

"The product has a good user interface."
"It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the CDC (Change Data Capture) component."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its ease of use. If you have had some experience with other solutions, such as Snowflake, the use of this solution will be simple."

"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."
"While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use."
"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."
"In the next release, we would like to have connections to more databases."
"Matillion ETL should include more enhanced capabilities for extracting data from the SAP systems."
"The current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine."
"The product's scalability needs improvement. Perhaps adding more connectors would be beneficial."
"Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for three weeks or more."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price and value for money would be okay for our purpose if there were some additional features."
"Its price depends on what you expect. You pay on a monthly basis, but there is a possibility to have special contracts depending on the installation."
"It is cost-effective. Based on our use case, it's efficient and cheap. It saves a lot of money and our upfront costs are less."
"The AWS pricing and licensing are a cost-effective solution for data integration needs."
"I think it is cost conscious. It used to be very cheap and they have more recently bumped up the pricing, so it is competitive now."
"The price of Matillion ETL is reasonable."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"The pricing depends on what edition the customer opts for. For example, the standard edition is priced at $2.00 per credit. And you are only charged when you use it. You're not charged when it's idle."
"Matillion ETL has a pay-as-you-go pricing model of a few dollars per hour of runtime."
