Overall Satisfaction with Matillion

We are using Matillion as our main ETL tool in order to move data from our RDS databases to our DWH (Redshift); during the process, we extract the data, perform some transformations, aggregations, and so on before inserting it on Redshift, where this data is used afterward by Quicksight and others B.I tools.
  • I is really simple and good.
  • Documentation
  • Drags and Drops.
  • Performance
  • I think the price could be a bit cheaper.

  • We had a positive i.e. impact once we didn't spend time and money developing our own application to take care of our ETL process.
I really like how simple it is to do workflows on Matillion and their really detailed documentation where you can easily find how to do what you need in your projects. They also have a really nice connection with different data sources, which makes their solution very trustable and complete to all our requirements.
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.
Matillion has a nice scalability capacity, and once it has been stored in our AWS cloud it makes it much easier to scale it on demand. The reason I'm not rating it as 10 is that there is no way to migrate or move it to another cloud in an easy way.
I always suggest Matillion for organizations that do not want to spend money and time developing their own ETL tool, Matillion is a mature one and meet all requirements about it. It is important to check if you have any edge case and have a look if it is covered by Matillion or not.
