Good for Quick Starts, but can be a bit pricey for small enterprises at scale.

  • Cost is okay, but is going up significantly soon. Value proposition is dwindling.
  • It made it easy to get up-and-running as far as getting data into our data lake. Good for a "quick win."
  • Pay-as-you-go model is good for smaller organizations.

Beautiful UI and UX to compete with any ETL, but at a cost!

Return on Investment

  • Considering our specific use case is to provide analytics "for free" to our existing customers of all tiers, the added investment is hard to measure since this is an internal cost in order to keep up with our competitors. We are still trying to quantify customer retention directly related to the new analytics we provide because of what Matillion has helped us achieve.

Intuitive and saves money on coders, but tedious and time-consuming in places.

Return on Investment

  • We have not had to hire a crew of SQL coders to create our analytics service.
  • We have a crew of people who are not coders that actually understand the data flows.
  • For the most part, our data delivery is reliable.
  • When it's not reliable, fixing it is very time-consuming because, for example, Matillion doesn't tell things like what record broke the flow.

Return on Investment

  • Our team can dynamically make modifications to code and deploy them immediately.
  • Source control and access via the cloud has enabled us to onboard new employees quickly.
  • The only negative is that it is relatively new to folks and it takes a little time to ramp up, however, the long term ROI pays off.

Return on Investment

  • Modifying code and deploying to production is very simple and takes very little time.
  • Easy UI and simple flow creation enabled us to create pipelines in a very short time, rather than spending lot of man-power to get to the same level with other tools.
  • In the long run, requirements and complexity grow a lot, it might not be the best solution. Perfect for small-medium sized companies.

Return on Investment

  • Not a high ROI, as it is a high-priced service--more even for start-ups
  • Jobs can get done fast. Delivering is a plus. Reports are made faster.
  • It requires infrastructure monitoring, another "hidden" cost.

What is Matillion?

Matillion is data transformation for cloud data warehouses. According to the vendor, only Matillion is purpose-built for Amazon Redshift, Snowflake, and Google BigQuery enabling businesses to achieve new levels of simplicity, speed, scale, and savings.

Quickly develop custom Transformation jobs by combining Filters, Joins, Aggregates, Calculators, Ranks, as well as more complex transformations such as Rankings, window calculations, and change-detection by dragging and dropping these onto a canvas GUI. Use Orchestration features to automate your ETL workflows with scheduling, notifications and alerting, and control flow.

Once your jobs are built, run them with confidence with component level validation and data sampling. For any custom or unique needs, Matillion also has Bash and Python Script components giving you the ultimate extensibility and flexibility.

Shared Job templates, Dynamic and Grid variables, and Version control help your development teams share resources across your Matillion instance.

Enterprise customers benefit from additional auditing and permissions, automatic job documentation, data lineage and more. Learn more about enterprise features here.

Each product comes with a set of warehouse specific features that help you get the most out of the platform. See our Product Feature pages on matillion.com for more information.
