Efficient data integration and transformation with seamless cloud-native integration
In our small business unit, we currently have around four users, with two of them utilizing Matillion within our organization. Considering our growing needs, we're contemplating transitioning to an enterprise SaaS solution where we would share the same instance. Currently, each user is billed individually, but consolidating to a shared instance seems more efficient. Scalability is excellent when using the SaaS solution, easily reaching a rating of ten out of ten. Each data pipeline request is encapsulated within a Docker container and spun off, allowing for instant scalability. Overall, I would rate it a nine out of ten in terms of performance and scalability.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product is quite stable and can handle complex data integration tasks well."
"It is an incredibly user-friendly and intuitive tool, making the learning curve quite smooth"
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its ease of use. If you have had some experience with other solutions, such as Snowflake, the use of this solution will be simple."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
"We allow non-technical people to use Matillion to load data into our data warehouse for reporting. Thus, it is easy enough to use that we don't always have to get a technical person involved in setting up a data movement (ETL)."
"Matillion ETL has great Git integration that is perfect and convenient to use."
"The technical support treats us well. They already have a support portal, and they are responsive, which helps."
"It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services."
"I think it is a very stable tool. My company did not have any problem with the tool."
"In my opinion, SAP PO is the most mature suite of tools to integrate processes across SAP environments at this moment. It's really unbeatable because it allows you to integrate whatever scenarios you can imagine."
"The solution is stable."
"SAP Process Orchestration has all the features that are necessary."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The monitoring tools are the most valuable feature."
"It is strategically focused to forecast a global integration platform for our business."
"The initial setup is easy...The solution gets automatically connected. The deployment takes six months. I rate its setup phase a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
"Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for three weeks or more."
"I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly."
"One of the features that's in development is data privacy in the cloud, along with further SAP integration. For connectivity to SAP systems."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
"When using the SQL loader type there were not a lot of pre-processing features for the data. For example, if there is a table with twenty columns, but we only want to load ten columns. In that case, we can use a security script to select the specific columns needed. However, if we want to perform extensive pre-processing of the data, I faced some challenges with Matillion ETL. I did not encounter many challenges, but my overall experience is limited as I only have three years of experience."
"It can have multi-environment support. We should be able to deploy it in different environments. Its integration with SAP connection is not so nice, which should be improved. It can also support an on-prem database."
"It's very difficult to find errors in a simple way."
"Some configurations can be a little tricky."
"The older version of the solution will no longer be supported."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"Its administration management feature needs to be simpler to use."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"It requires some maintenance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The prices needs to be lower."
"Matillion ETL is expensive."
"It was very easy to purchase through the AWS Marketplace, but it was also expensive."
"It is not necessarily a cheap solution. However, it's reasonable priced, especially with the smaller machines that we run it on."
"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."
"Matillion ETL has a pay-as-you-go pricing model of a few dollars per hour of runtime."
"I have heard from my manager and other higher ups, "This product is cheaper than other things on the market," and they have done the research."
"It is cost-effective. Based on our use case, it's efficient and cheap. It saves a lot of money and our upfront costs are less."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"The pricing depends on what type of client you are with SAP and the contract you have. There is a licensing cost that needs to be paid."
"My company deals with different pricing models of the product, according to which we don't pay for the solution directly, but we do pay for the maintenance part."
"We subscribe to annual licenses, and the competitive license cost is reasonable."
"Looking at market conditions, vendors nowadays are giving products at very low price levels. However, SAP Process Orchestration have not yet reduced their prices. The prices could be reduced a lot to stay competitive."
