Fast and powerful
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is convenient, with a web UI that saves your worksheets in the cloud. It is incredibly powerful, letting you do queries that execute faster than Oracle SQL by orders of magnitude.
What do you dislike about the product?
The web UI is a little underdeveloped. It has some powerful features like cloud syncing and best-of-class support for multiple cursors, but it also has some glaring omissions such as Find & Replace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Snowflake is letting us run queries that weren't possible with Oracle just because of how powerful it is. Stuff that would take hours before can now finish in less than 2 minutes.

Amazing product
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Snowflake has decoupled our compute and storage requirements and can scale up or down as our needs change. They also have some of the best documentation in the industry.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure that there's anything I can think of as a negative.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously our data warehouse solution did not scale with our needs, which left us unable to keep up with our demands.
BEST TOOL IN THE WORLD
What do you like best about the product?
Time saver, ease of use, sharing data with a click of button and cost platform is built for every business structure. Tool with a lot of power and yet built in simplicity!@

Time, tools, people, infrastructure and cost! All are simplified by scoping Snowflake correctly for our suite of tools.

It really helped with the problems that we faced with traditional databases like Teradata, like expanding the compute and storage.
Simple to use cloud data warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Having the ability to spin up/down compute on demand is very useful. Traditional ETL patterns no longer need to be followed to get good results. Native JSON support makes dealing with APIs simple and easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cumbersome security model is a pain to use but in reality much better for the data warehouse.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having the ability to work with billions of rows of structured and unstructured data makes delivering insights much faster and easier.
