    The best ELT tool on the market

    5

    Matillion is the single most important piece of software I use on a day-to-day basis. Its' ability to blend a ton of out-of-the-box functionality with the ability to script custom components in Python to author our own integrations is invaluable. It has enabled us to build transformed data within our warehouse, use pre-authored integrations to pull data from vendors, write our own integrations to pull from vendors, and is the single tool we use along with Redshift to provide visibility to all of the data within our business. I am a huge fan of Matillion and have used it in 2 different orgs. It is one of the only software tools I will champion across any org I move to.

    Pros:
    -Extremely easy deployment with cloud formation template. -Excellent pre-authored integrations that are easily extensible/customizable. -Easy to use UI to build complex transformations. -Extremely flexible logic with static and grid variables to intelligently execute jobs and branch as needed.
    Cons:
    -No automated scheduling based on dependent table updates. (This is possible to set up, but not out of the box.) -Support SLAs have gotten worse over time.

    Matillion Usability

    3

    I really like Matillion ETL but I was a bit disappointed with some of its limitations and quirks, like when Twitter updated his API all my jobs stopped working and the only thing I could do was develop everything again without using the Matillion component. When I was trying to make upsert procedures on RDS Databases, I was thrilled that the Matillion component has that option, bit it simply didn't work. It seems like these functionalities haven't got the same attention of the others, I contacted the Matillion support which is simply great and these things are still going to be fixed. When I wanted specific libraries of Python, I couldn't get it working on my instance because pip was out of date and it couldn't be updated. I tried to update and I messed up with my instance. Overall, Matillion is great, when you're creating a flow of data migration and you need to parse the data before and do some automations, but there are some cases when you need something a little more specific, that's when it becomes a pain.

    Pros:
    Matillion is a cloud based ELT tool and it is very easy to use . The data transfer rates are incredibly good since the product locates in cloud infrastructure and the infrastructure can be scaled up when required.
    Cons:
    The connectors to other data sources are limited when compare to what other rival product are offering . The job monitoring functionality is limited , the scheduling and job log features could have been improved. The GitHub integration could have been straight forward.

    Reasons for choosing Matillion

    We wanted to try out Matillion before going with Talend . Worked and built a project with Matillion after the usage of 6-7 month realized it will not suit for our future requirement and went with Talend.

    Easy to use solution, allowing rapid delivery of ELT processes

    5

    We came to Matillion while looking for a tool that would allow us to orchestrate our load processes for Amazon Redshift. We'd used other ETL tools previously, were blown away by how easy it was to pick up and understand Matillion. We liked the simplicity, and the fact that we could always dig into the SQL that was generated. New features are added frequently, and we usually find one or two improvements that directly impact us with each release. Their support team are also very responsive, and Matillion are always keen to help you get the most out of their software, so there's a lot of support if you want it. 2+ years later, and we're using Matillion to run all our ELT jobs across various data warehouse projects, and very happy with it.

    Pros:
    - Very intuitive design environment - super quick to learn. - Components map closely to SQL capabilities in Redshift. - Easy to view the SQL generated. - Sample, row count, and data lineage make it easy to unit test as you build. - Powerful management options via REST API (orchestration, Github integration, etc.). - Native AWS integration. - Aggressive release cycle, constantly adding new features. - Easy to document in-workflow. - Lots of third party integrations.
    Cons:
    - User concurrency/licencing model (simple, but can't be customised to fit your need). - Exception handling could be improved. - A single Task View would be helpful for multi-environment/project support.

    Reasons for choosing Matillion

    Simplicity, and the fact that Matillion was built specifically for Redshift, meant it was ideal for our needs.

    Pros:
    Web-based, Runs in AWS so it can sit close to your data if you're using a cloud warehouse. You only have to pay per minute that you have the instance on which is a BIG plus.
    Cons:
    Not nearly as many features and user-friendly data transformation tools as a competing software such as Alteryx has. As such, this tool is not as convenient or flexible for detailed data transformations. We mostly use it for bulk loading which it is very fast and good at.

    Reasons for choosing Matillion

    Cost is based on how much data you're processing vs. how much time you are using the server. This means fivetran is not cost effective for bulk loading tasks.

    Reasons for switching to Matillion

    We still use Alteryx for detailed ETL tasks, but Matillion is way faster for bulk loading operations into Snowflake. If Matillion could build out more data transformation tools then we may consider switching entirely.

    Great for pipelining data to warehouse/lake, not getting it back

    4

    It was easy to get set up, and it worked great for pushing data into Snowflake as a data warehouse. However, we quickly realized that we would need yet another tool to get the data back out to the source systems to synchronize/integrate it. We could sort of do it with Matillion, but it required a lot of custom programming and was not very intuitive. We ended up using a different iPaaS tool that could handle traffic/integration in both directions.

    Pros:
    It is extremely fast and easy to pull data from various sources and pipe it into Snowflake. The graphic interface lets this happen without programming.
    Cons:
    There is almost no ability to get data back from your warehouse into the other systems to synchronize the data. It's great to have it all in the warehouse, but it seems pretty critical to have that data flowing back to other systems that are part of your environment. The pricing model is frustrating. You are billed for when the machine instance is ON, not when it is actively doing something. So, if you have a couple hours of job that run in a day, you have to shut down the machine to save money the rest of the day. With it shut down, development can't happen. So, we had to turn it on and off all the time. It would be much better if they billed as it is used, not as it is on.

    Reasons for choosing Matillion

    Matillion was written for Snowflake, which is our preferred solution over MS SQL Server.

    Overall experience with Matillion has been great. The first call with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] set the tone of who and what Matillion can offer our company. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] was kind, not pushy, relatable, and truly tried to understand our use case. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] really sold us on proceeding with a demo after sharing some of the functionality of the MDL tool available for free in AWS marketplace. While we very much could simply use the free tool, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] helped us understand why we should consider the full product. Finally, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] was a great account rep to work with. Before our first call he had looked up our company and understood our business (which is not easy to do). We are in a sensitive are of health care and [SENSITIVE CONTENT] opened up and shared a personal story relating to the line of work we are in. Other companies/products we looked into and has calls with did not take the time to understand our business or empathize with our customers. The personal touch from the above folks was a nice addition to the great product Matillion offers.

    Pros:
    It is a pay for what you use type of software. Most other ETL platforms are a flat monthly fee, sometimes at crazy prices. The pay for what you use model makes it easy to justify cost to leadership. You can schedule jobs to make sure you maximize your time.
    Cons:
    The user experience feels a little dated. Some things could be better displayed/ explained.

    Reasons for choosing Matillion

    The simple price model, out of the box features, and direct load to Big Query made the decision for our ETL. Others offered similar feature but at extremely steep prices. Although they might have looked better visually the functionalities were there, but the pricing was not.
