Used for wrangling or transforming data from sources like S3 and Databricks

Good management and pricing but not great for enterprise environments
In a high-density location, we're running into connectivity drops. There may be too many rouge devices broadcasting, and the devices is getting interference from another channel. The only to fix this is to reboot and we need something that reboots on the fly. We also need better security for VLANs and VPNs. There are issues with certain Apple devices. Technical support is not very helpful. The initial setup, which seemed straightforward at first, had to be redone. This may not have been the fault of the product. We're not sure what went wrong.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It can scale to a great extent. It can handle the load that we are putting on it, which is about 5TBs."
"It has helped us to get onto the cloud quickly."
"Matillion's technical support is excellent."
"Matillion ETL is one hundred percent stable."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice. It has a good graphical user interface. You can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool. If there is good connectivity to a cloud database, such as Snowflake, and you can have a lot of Snowflake functionality in the tool."
"The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy."
"It's easy to manage and support the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for three weeks or more."
"The tool's lineage is very weak."
"The product's scalability needs improvement. Perhaps adding more connectors would be beneficial."
"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."
"One of the features that's in development is data privacy in the cloud, along with further SAP integration. For connectivity to SAP systems."
"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."
"It can have multi-environment support. We should be able to deploy it in different environments. Its integration with SAP connection is not so nice, which should be improved. It can also support an on-prem database."
"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."
"There are issues with certain Apple devices."
"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The prices needs to be lower."
"The solution's pricing is not based on the licensing cost but on the running hours when the Matillion instance is up and running."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"There is no license. The solution is free."
