Managing complex data hierarchies has improved analytics but still needs richer hierarchy types
To evaluate Cube's efficiency in handling large data volumes, I use metrics including F1 scores, AUC (Area Under the Curve), and RMC (Root Mean Squares), along with RSE (Root Square Errors). These factors help me gauge the efficiency of the algorithms clearly. Regarding improving Cube, I believe that when we are building hierarchies, I should enhance the type of hierarchies. For instance, in a few countries lacking state systems, there could be a hierarchy without proper categorization—such as continent, country, and city. Therefore, it would be beneficial if I could improve the hierarchies to retrieve data as quickly as possible from Cube.

Easy integration and workflow proposals streamline processes
The predefined connectors eliminate the need to write code for connectivity. If you have a predefined connector, it is easy to use with plug and play functionality. The processing time and ease of use are significant benefits. As everyone is moving into AI integration, it will definitely help. When creating workflows, they can propose solutions directly.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Implementation was super smooth, and within two weeks we were up and running and the metrics were exposed in our app."
"NPS improved to approximately eight out of ten for our feature, and internally ticket handling times decreased, allowing reallocation of resources to higher-impact projects."
"Cube completes my tasks very easily and takes less time, allowing me to deliver any project in a timely manner to our clients."
"Cube's caching mechanism impacts my database query loads and response times significantly."
"The loading of data is the most valuable feature of Matillion ETL."
"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)."
"Matillion's technical support is excellent."
"The tool's middle-dimensional structure significantly simplifies obtaining the right data at the appropriate level. This feature makes deploying our applications easier since we utilize a single source without publishing data from various sources."
"It has made our lives much easier, this is what my teammates who were using the other stuff before have said, then they moved it to Snowflake and now it is much easier and faster to use than before."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the ETL. The solution is open-source which provides advantages, such as good performance and high efficiency. Additionally, it supports three data types which eliminates predefining the data, and we can write script models in Python."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
"I would recommend Matillion ETL for any cloud-based operations."
 

Cons

"Cube's interface can be challenging for non-technical users, needing clearer use-case examples to ease integration into workflows."
"When it comes to the initial setup of Cube, I faced some challenges, including server issues when uploading data from local sources to the Unipi servers."
"I did not see any return on investment from Cube."
"There is no way to create a real template that is not exposed directly in the UI."
"Cube can be improved by enhancing data refresh over multiple tabs."
"There are certain functions that are available in other ETL tools which are still not present in Matillion ETL. It would be good to have more features."
"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."
"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
"Scalability in Matillion Data Productivity Cloud has some limitations. Depending on the nature of data sets, volume, and mixture of different data, the scalability could be improved as manual code writing is still required."
"Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for three weeks or more."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."
"The product's scalability needs improvement. Perhaps adding more connectors would be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Purchasing it through the AWS Marketplace is pretty convenient. There is a little bit of back and forth in terms of the licensing based on the machine size, but it seems to have worked out well. it is convenient to have it all as part of our AWS billing."
"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."
"The absence of licensing commitments makes it easy to experiment with the tool, and if we decide it's not suitable, we can simply stop the ETL instance and cease incurring charges."
"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."
"A rough estimation of the cost is around 20,000 dollars a month, however, this is dependent on the machine used and how Matillion ETL is used."
"I have heard from my manager and other higher ups, "This product is cheaper than other things on the market," and they have done the research."
"The price of Matillion ETL is reasonable."
