Featured Reviews

Jacques Du Preez - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good user interface and easy to navigate
Our experience is mainly around using Snowflake Data Cloud with Matillion. And the two of them combined, offer superior performance and price point benefits. Using them together is very efficient because Matillion's processing and Snowflake's own scalability and consumption based on pushing down code work well together. They are very efficient. We've used Azure Data Factory (ADF) for integration. So that's an alternative, depending on customer choice for the integration. And then on AWS, a few of the other services, like Terraform, and S3 storage, and that's about it. It's on a case-by-case basis. If they've chosen ADF as a technology, then we implement using that choice.
Rohit Sircar - PeerSpot reviewer
Great automation and strong workflows useful for integration
The initial setup is quite straightforward. When connecting Workato with your on-premises system, you have to install the Workato agent on your network. It was not complex but a long process to configure and settle. Workato has not gone live for us yet, so only the developers are currently using it. But in terms of users, we will have close to 250 and maybe 30 additional direct users. We are seeing a lot of different use cases where we can add new recipes because we started small, and there are many different areas where we can implement Workato for automation.
