Structured FHIR workflows have enabled me to focus on interoperability and business logic
In terms of improvements for Smile Digital Health, there was not anything major that stood out as broken or missing for my use case or the company's needs. Most of what we required was handled well. If I had to nitpick, I would say sometimes the learning curve and visibility into what is happening under the hood could be tricky, especially when debugging across multiple systems. A bit more straightforward observability or clearer error messaging would have made troubleshooting faster. However, I did not find anything that prevented us from accomplishing our tasks, and I was very satisfied.If I had to add something about needed improvements, it would relate to documentation. The platform itself is solid, but when working across multiple systems, it was not always obvious where an issue originated—whether it was from our Java services, an external system, or how Smile Digital Health interpreted a FHIR resource. Clearer guided troubleshooting or examples in the documentation could have helped with those edge cases. However, integration-wise, it worked fine for what we needed; during tricky moments, I sometimes had to dig deeper to understand where and what went wrong.

Data teams have gained full control over real‑time user behavior tracking for advertising insights
Snowplow offers the best features in that you are completely free to make your own data model, track the way you want to track, and control the way the data comes to Snowflake so you are the complete owner of the raw data without being forced into a certain data model. Having that level of flexibility impacts our team's work and projects as we needed quite a lot of people that were really good in Snowplow. However, from the moment that you completely understood the technical aspects, you were completely free to set up your own Snowplow environment and track the way you wanted to track and what you wanted to track, which is not possible with Google Analytics and Adobe Analytics, for example. Snowplow has impacted my organization positively, very well. For DPG Media, it is the most important data source that we have, delivering a lot of value in the company. We are making data mesh products on this data all over the company. I think for advertisement, it is really the most important source of data.

Cons

"If I had to nitpick, I would say sometimes the learning curve and visibility into what is happening under the hood could be tricky, especially when debugging across multiple systems."
"The only issue that we had at a certain moment was that Snowplow was offering more services and asking us to pay more, but we did not use all these services."
"Setup is challenging because getting the pipeline infrastructure right is hard."
"Maintenance overhead was high, debugging and schema management were time-consuming, and there were increasing security concerns due to it no longer being actively maintained."
"Snowplow can be improved by reducing the pricing, as it is currently too high."
