Pros
  • Snowflake provides faster data warehousing solutions.
  • Snowflake can be easily integrated and connected with other third party tools.
  • Snowflake does well in ETL and ELT task.
Cons
  • Snowflake can provide more data visualization options in their worksheets.
  • In Snowflake worksheet, the query results are cached for 24 hours and it is not possible to see the query result after 24 hours. Snowflake can provide option to see query results even after 24 hours, that will be very helpful.
  • Snowflake can implement more data masking and encryption options.
