Billed directly via cloud marketplace on an hourly basis, with annual subscriptions available depending on the customer's cloud data warehouse provider.
Astera ReportMiner had a more concentrated feature stack for what we were looking for at a cheaper price so we went with it instead of other competitors that had more features, more complicated UIs, and had more expensive subscription packages because of it. They also had an …

Chose Astera ReportMiner
I have never actually used another program like ReportMiner. Before I was just using PDF viewers such as Adobe that had OCR capabilities. I would have to select a range of numbers and copy and paste to Excel. It was tedious, slow, and sometimes error prone. I chose to learn …
Matillion is cheaper and we really like the customer support of Matillion as well as lerning materials provided by Matillion were far better. They also made connectors for us for free while others were charging us for it.
Matillion gives great ability to connect to variety of sources and bring data into cloud data warehouse using connector based approach with which we can build complex transformation jobs which can do automated data fetches from your sources.
Matillion has better capabilities and better built-in elements that saves your time and efforts. also the connectivity across multiple data warehousing tool is better in Matillion. even the performance of the pipeline and the time required to create a particular pipeline is …
My manager selected Million based on his previous work experience. He believes it is easy to use and maintain, cheaper than competitors, and suitable for our use case.
The only other ETL tool I've used was SSIS. At first I thought Matillion seemed "kiddish" after using the polished Microsoft tool but now I think Matillion is easier and can do much more as it has so many built-in connectors etc. We selected Matillion at our job because of …
n/a -- joined the team after they already were established in Matillion. Have had brief looks at other ETL products but found nothing compelling enough to suggest a change.
We selected Matillion primarily because of it's ability to connect to numerous data sources and easily create transformation jobs. While FiveTran does a better job managing and examining deltas, it is not easy to use and is very non user friendly. SSIS was not a good fit for …
Fivetran offers a managed service and pre-configured schemas/models for data loading, which means much less administrative work for initial setup and ongoing maintenance. But it comes at a much higher price tag. So, knowing where your sweet spot is in the build vs. buy spectrum …
We decided to move forward with Matillion because it was the best tool among tools that support both ingesting data from a source system to a target database and running transformation workflows on it afterwards. Fivetran and Airbyte only support data ingestion and we had our …
Cost and ease of use were better for our purposes. Matillion distinguishes itself from Fivetran and Snaplogic through its user-friendly design, no-code interface, in-depth transformation capabilities, allowing for complex data manipulations directly within the platform, …
The Matillion selection was not my decision. But I think it's a good enough choice. It is especially valuable that the team can learn Matillion easily and that the project can be understood by the entire team with the visual environment instead of complex ETLs.
Both the Databricks platform and Dbt Cloud are more powerful from the point of view of the development lifecycle and data use cases covered. They are also more complex and require specialized data engineering skills to be used. Matillion has a lower barrier of entry for small …
Removes most of the complexity around setting up and preparing things. If you could describe with words what needs to be done to move data from A to B, the implementation in Matillion would probably be the most similar in terms of simplicity of understanding what you are doing …
Matillion is a good tool for integrating multiple clouds. Informatica has been a market standard for many years, it provides multiple capabilities for data governance, data quality, etc. However, Informatica is pretty expensive compared to Matillion. Also, Matillion is more …
ReportMiner is well suited for digitizing PDFs that includes data that follows a pattern such as a bank statement. It saves a bunch of time to make one report that will be able to be used each month for that bank. The program would not be useful if you had to spend the time making a new report each month for a new bank with a few lines of data
Great: Need to query simpler APIs, or utilize well known services such as GSheets etc.? Matillion has got some of the best and easiest to use connectors out there. Not so great: Do you need have a competent CI/CD flow that you will be able to update / compare from Matillion as well as other sources at the same time? Good luck, you will need to be extra careful, as you might have to have a deeper dive into your servers Terminal each time you have a git conflict.
Could provide some features to help with advanced analytics for big data. (i.e. larger data sets)
Too much clutter on their Youtube page, they should highlight the tutorials so they are easier to find for new users. Get rid of old tutorial video playlists so the organization is clean and up to date.
Have sales rep follow up with customers to offer product updates, new product releases, and do check ins to see if customers have suggestions for feature improvement.
Static and monolithic, it will show its limits when running multiple concurrent jobs.
Github and versioning implementation is messy and broken. Don't use it.
There's not way to see/query the system resources, just wait for a server to crash due to out of memory. An admin panel would be appreciated + some env variables with updated info.
API implementation is cumbersome and limited.
There's no concept of hub and worker engine, everything happens of the same server (designing workflows and executing them). Having separate light ETL engines to run job could be better. (sort of docker/kubernetes/lambda functions).
Handling of variables is limited especially for returned values from sub components.
Some components could return more metadata at the end of their execution instead of the standard one.
Billing is badly designed not taking into account that the server is hosted by the client. Expensive.
We had several issue with migration where starting a new instance was required and then migrating the content. It was painful and time consuming also have to deal with support and engineering team on Matillion side.
CDC doesn't work as expected or it is not a mature product yet.
Matillion is easy to use and flexible to debug. Performance are good and support is giving us a good service level. There are still some technical points to be developed more (such as SAP extraction). but easy flows are really fast to be developed. We are also using a tool for migration from other tools, and it is useful as Matillion is producing XML code.
Easy tasks are really easy, and complex tasks are still possible. With prior knowledge of general data warehousing principles and experience with other data transformation tools, it's straightforward to get familiar with and use Matillion. I initially used minimal external support from a partner for some more complex tasks but very soon could work entirely independently with Matillion.
Overall, I've found Matillion to be responsive and considerate. I feel like they value us as a customer even when I know they have customers who spend more on the product than we do. That speaks to a motive higher than money. They want to make a good product and a good experience for their customers. If I have any complaint, it's that support sometimes feels community-oriented. It isn't always immediately clear to me that my support requests are going to a support engineer and not to the community at large. Usually, though, after a bit of conversation, it's clear that Matillion is watching and responding. And responses are generally quick in coming.
Astera ReportMiner had a more concentrated feature stack for what we were looking for at a cheaper price so we went with it instead of other competitors that had more features, more complicated UIs, and had more expensive subscription packages because of it. They also had an easy purchase/setup process at the time of our procurement.
We selected Matillion primarily because of it's ability to connect to numerous data sources and easily create transformation jobs. While Fivetran does a better job managing and examining deltas, it is not easy to use and is very non user friendly. SSIS was not a good fit for our team and required a significant amount of attention and server management that we did not want to invest in.
We're using Matillion on EC2 instances, and we have about 20 projects for our clients in the same instance. Sometimes, we're struggling to manage schedules for all projects because thread management is not visible, and we can't see the process at the instance level.
Efficient and automated data extraction. Saves time and resources.
User-friendly interface and good documentation. It is therefore easiest to learn and apply in a short time.
Documents, which have various formats of data tables or arrangement, needed a lot of manual fixing. So it required a lot of time for validation and quality control.
Time savings -- we could custom code nearly everything Matillion does, but it would take days/weeks instead of minutes/hours.
There's a bit of a learning curve to truly unlock Matillion's potential, and that can be frustrating for some new users, but once you get over that curve, the possibilities are endless.
It allows us to centralize the hundreds of way to bring data in, so that even if you have to troubleshoot what someone else wrote, it's easy to jump in and understand what is happening.
