Provides High Reliability and Data Security
• Data in the datahub refreshes nightly. As the data only refreshes once every day, it is necessary to have to wait for any changes to thesource systems to become available.The daily refresh can be extremely useful for reconciling data. • DataHub only displays details of current members of the Organization. So it has much limited data available for generation of dynamic reports. • DataHub is volatile. The records are completely re-loaded each day. It puts burden on the system. • There are very few summary tables available due to storage of data in a detailed format. • The detailed information is not stored in the DataHub. It is stored in the relevant source system. Only commonly required data is stored within the DataHub.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All staff members and users can request an account which can be accessed from all PCs on the company’s network."
"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)."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation."
"The loading of data is the most valuable feature of Matillion ETL."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice, it has a good graphical user interface, and you can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool."
"It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."
"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 product is quite stable and can handle complex data integration tasks well."
"It has improved the costs of managing my customer’s data."
 

Cons

"DataHub is volatile; the records are completely re-loaded each day, which puts a burden on the system."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"The tool's lineage is very weak."
"While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use."
"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."
"I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly."
"Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."
"Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It was procured through the AWS Marketplace because it keeps things simple. They offer retail-like checkout and bill through your existing Amazon Web Services account."
"It is not necessarily a cheap solution. However, it's reasonable priced, especially with the smaller machines that we run it on."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
"The AWS pricing and licensing are a cost-effective solution for data integration needs."
