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.

Drag-and-drop workflows have accelerated cross-database analysis and simplified daily reporting

I consider user interface modernization in Toad Data Point to be an area for improvement; it could be enhanced with a more modern, web-based look and smoother navigation, focusing on better UX and dashboard customization. Real-time collaboration could benefit from trying Git-style integration, which would strengthen team collaboration features. Performance with large data sets sometimes slows down our workflows, so implementing a better optimization engine specifically for big data workflows could enhance functionality, along with improvements in cloud-native deployment for better browser access. For the dashboarding feature, I believe Toad Data Point could improve by offering more interactive dashboards and advanced visualizations beyond the current basic charts and pivots. Implementing capabilities such as drill-down, interactive filters, and dynamic parameter selections would align more with BI-style interactivity. Visualizations compared to tools such as Microsoft Power BI or Tableau are quite limited, so enhancing this area with cloud-hosted interactive dashboards and seamless auto-refresh options would greatly improve user experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product's initial setup phase was easy."

"Matillion ETL has great Git integration that is perfect and convenient to use."

"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."

"Matillion ETL is one hundred percent stable."

"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation."

"It's so intuitive and easy to use you can actually just teach yourself how to use it."

"It's been able to do everything we require."

"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."

More Matillion Data Productivity Cloud pros

"The best thing about it is its automation features."

"Toad Data Point made our query testing a lot faster and more efficient, and we saw a lot of time-saving in our development process."

"What I like the most about Toad Data Point is the automation feature, which is mostly useful for us, and I have not found it in any other systems that I have worked with so far, and it can easily schedule any automation tasks that we provide."

"We had an unsupported version of Hyperion that needed to be replaced, and Toad Data Point allowed us to quickly transition to a similar solution and to easily convert all of our preexisting queries (more than 300) to the new solution with minimum effort."

"One of the greatest features is that you can get data from anywhere to anywhere with Toad Data Point."

"The most valuable features of Toad Data are you could write a parameterized query and it wouldn't error out, it would give you the parameters that you could input. The auto-formatting feature is useful because it was great for keeping your queries neat and understandable. The auto comment, and uncomment toggles that you could do were convenient."

"We love it."

"I would estimate that Toad Data Point saves me about 30 to 70 percent of my time depending on the work type."

Cons

"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."

"It is not an end-to-end platform for ETL. To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms."

"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."

"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."

"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."

"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."

"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."

"Matillion ETL should include more enhanced capabilities for extracting data from the SAP systems."

More Matillion Data Productivity Cloud cons

"Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction."

"What could be improved is probably the user interface."

"It's not user-friendly. Once you start using it, you eventually get to know the features."

"On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time. After manually executing the first time, they run with no issues."

"On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time."

"Visualizations compared to tools such as Microsoft Power BI or Tableau are quite limited, so enhancing this area with cloud-hosted interactive dashboards and seamless auto-refresh options would greatly improve user experience."

"I used their report writing a little bit, however, it could improve since it's not a really good report writer and it's a little clunky."

"However, when accessing large data volumes and running complex queries like nested queries or stored procedures, Toad Data Point might get hung during those operations, which is the only significant challenge I encounter."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Matillion ETL has a pay-as-you-go pricing model of a few dollars per hour of runtime."

"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 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."

"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."

"It is not necessarily a cheap solution. However, it's reasonable priced, especially with the smaller machines that we run it on."

"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 was very easy to purchase through the AWS Marketplace, but it was also expensive."

"The product must improve its pricing."

More Matillion Data Productivity Cloud pricing and cost advice

"The Mac licenses are expensive, costing 1,600 dollars each. This is much higher than for the Windows version. I maintain a very limited number of licenses due to this cost."

"The cost of this product is reasonable."

"The price of Toad Data Point was approximately $500 annually."
