Matillion vs SnapLogic

• The workspace is drag and drop, which makes it intuitive and easy to use.
• Server creation and management is robust. We haven't had to worry too much about it once we got it created.
• The job scheduler is very simple and intuitive.
• Matillion allows you to run Python, which grants almost unlimited flexibility, even without using any other components.

• Their customer service response time is brilliant.
• SFTP tasks do a great job in reading the file directly from the server, instead of having to download it and then read it.
• Tasks expose the ability to run them using external job schedulers.
• Once you have a server up, setting up SnapLogic service does not take long. They have good documentation and customer support too.

• Limited selection of instance sizes - Larger organizations and groups my need to set up multilple instances depending on estimations on concurrent users.
• Lack of complete github, gitlab, or other source control integration - it has internal versioning but it is limited. Manual job exports currently don't lend well for useful DIFFs comparison when using those technologies.
• Needs more options for authentication and security - User creation is very manual and can be tedious and difficult to manage for larger installations.

• The installation process is vague, and our customers have issues with using Java for security reasons. If they had an install package that could fix that it would be less of an issue.
• They could make it more convenient to use on the web browser, if I was working on a customer in the Manager I don't want to have to navigate to keep going back to that.

• SnapLogic cannot solve business problems and you still need a technical person to solve the complex integration issues.
• Our business bought SnapLogic thinking this could replace our current ETL tools such as Informatica. But SnapLogic falls short in a lot of features when compared to Informatica. Later our business decided not to replace Informatica.
• SnapLogic promised to solve big data integration problems, but we did not find a suitable solution that can solve our problems of data integration using SnapLogic (for instance, it could not parse parquet nested file).
