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.

Cons

"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
"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 improvement area could be possible if the tool provides better integration capabilities with other ecosystems, including governance tools or data cataloging tools, as it is currently an area where the solution is lacking."
"Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."
"I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly."
"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."
"Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"Precisely works with a tool called Analyze, which has a steep learning curve due to its use of Jython, a combination of Java and Python. This could be improved to make the tool more user-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Matillion ETL is expensive."
"The AWS pricing and licensing are a cost-effective solution for data integration needs."
"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 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 product must improve its pricing."
"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."
"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 solution is very cheap. You're paying $2.50 an hour and if you set your service up, which you can do, you're not getting charged. Currently, our ETL process is just an overnight process that runs for about an hour. I can start and stop my server just for an hour if I want to and spent $2.50 a day for an ETL solution. There are no additional costs."
