Cons

"Its documentation could be improved.​"

"Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."
"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."
"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."
"In the next release, we would like to have connections to more databases."
"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
