We were up and running within 2 weeks of procuring the Matillion ETL.
The very first integrations we started were that of Salesforce and that was both inbound from Salesforce and outbound to Salesforce. We were able to build 5 to 6 such Outbound integrations within a month.
And then there were around 20 Inbound integrations from Salesforce which we were able to achieve in another month.

One of the key strengths of Matillion is its user-friendly interface, which allows non-technical users to easily set up data integrations and transformations. The platform supports a wide range of data sources, including cloud-based databases, file systems, and APIs, making it an excellent choice for organizations that need to work with data from multiple sources.

We have started doing some research about ETL tools since we decided to do not to develop it a house, and after talking with some colleagues and reading about Matillion, we decided to move it forward, and that was our time schedule: Research and ETL tools try 45 days Developing our project on Matillion Platform: 90 days Tests and adjusts: 30 days.

My learning curve was long. Matillion is simply not like any other ETL / ELT tool out there, because Snowflake isn't like other cloud databases out there. I had to first learn a different pattern of data movement and error checking. Next, I had to learn which components to use and when. There aren't any good in-depth how-to guides out there. There aren't really detailed instructions on how to implement a specific pattern and what challenges you are going to face and how to handle them. There isn't a site for users and developers to hang out and ask questions, there is only the support ticket queue and some very knowledgeable and helpful Matillion engineers to answer your questions.

Matillion was implemented within one week in our organization for full functionality. Our company secured its deployment within this period of time and all our programs were able to run smoothly. The learning curve was easy to master and get it run as expected within a short period of time. Our teams commitment and flexibility of this tool contributed to quick implementation.

I started reading about Matillion and after one week and talking to their support team I started my project and it was up and running after 2 weeks of developing.

It took some days in order to figure out how to configure the environment and all the basic configurations. Writing simple jobs took a really short time to learn (hours), while in some other days I was able to prepare a full orchestrator. Parameters configuration is a little more complex and I had to figure it out in some hours together with a colleague of mine.

Within a month of getting Matillion we had an established pipeline that was extracting data from the company's application database and updating the corresponding data in the warehouse. Additional data source (e.g. Salesforce and Netsuite) were quick to implement (c. 2 weeks per data source) including any relevant testing.

Proof of concept took a couple of weeks. Getting access to private SQL databases was a little fiddly as we needed to install some drivers which we would have expected to be installed as default, but once up and running, we have had no issues. Tweaking firewalls settings to allow Matillion access took a while.

I watched training and example videos/seminars for about two weeks before getting an instance set up for the company. And from there, I had a usable workflow going within another week.

Matillion being ELT cloud tool offers easy to implement which requires an AWS EC2 instance and licensing.
Training on Matillion and getting the development team on-board was quite a challenge. Would require immense experience to explore the core functionality of Matillion. Matillion was running with-in a week time after acquiring a license but for the development team to work efficiently it took a couple of weeks.

We were able to get up and running with Matillion within a month. With no real training in the tool, we were able to develop useful jobs and an entire job framework on Matillion within that month. As we got more familiar with it, within three months, we were able to take advantage of additional features to create a framework where bringing new data in from our application is as simple as adding an entry to a table.

From the moment we bought it on AWS marketplace to connecting to our monolith database it took a matter of hours. Deciding the Redshift table structure we needed for storage actually took longer than the actual setup time! That is a definite plus for anyone who wants to get up an running as soon as possible.
