SnapLogic vs Toad Data Point comparison

"SnapLogic is a great platform for establishing integrations among various systems or patterns by using any kind of interface. If something is not supported by predefined snaps – snaps are connectors in SnapLogic – you can create them (custom snaps) or write a script."

"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."

"The feature I found most valuable in SnapLogic is low-code development. Low-code development has been very useful for simple processes, which is required for business users such as extracting details from a file or getting things reported by calling your web service. Calling your web service also becomes easier with SnapLogic because of the snaps available, so if you have the documentation, you can call an API. You don't have to write all those clients to call an API, so that is another feature I found very easy in SnapLogic. Configuring and managing all the file systems also become very handy with the solution."

"The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy."

"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use. It's basically just drag and drop."

"It is a stable solution."

"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."

"They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements."

"One of the greatest features is that you can get data from anywhere to anywhere with Toad Data Point."

"The most valuable features of Toad Data are you could write a parameterized query and it wouldn't error out, it would give you the parameters that you could input. The auto-formatting feature is useful because it was great for keeping your queries neat and understandable. The auto comment, and uncomment toggles that you could do were convenient."

"It provides better SQL development tooling than SQL Developer, which is not a sufficient tool for all development use cases. It offers power developers the tools they need."

"I have never experienced any issues with customer service."

"The Connectivity and Connection Manager supports a broad number of connection types, and it is trivial for end-users to set up their own connections to sources."

"The best thing about it is its automation features."

"With Toad Data Point, I can automate most steps automatically."

"We love it."

"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."

"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"

"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."

"I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market."

"I would like to see more performance-related dashboards, ones that display the cost of a pipeline, for instance. Also, it would be helpful to have management dashboards for overseeing pipelines and connections."

"What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools."

"The support is the most important improvement they could make."

"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."

"On the scheduling server, some scheduled reports just sit there and never execute for the first time. After manually executing the first time, they run with no issues."

"It's not user-friendly. Once you start using it, you eventually get to know the features."

"The Mac license is incredibly expensive. It is 1,600 dollars each, which is more than the Windows version."

"It's not user-friendly. Once you start using it, you eventually get to know the features."

"Toad Data could improve by having additional features, such as query prediction. This could help someone who's not the strongest programmer. If the software could help them write queries correctly it would be very helpful, especially for small development teams or teams that lack the input skills necessary to write and program efficiently."

"The Mac license is incredibly expensive. It is 1,600 dollars each, which is more than the Windows version. Scalability is difficult when it is that costly."

"I used their report writing a little bit, however, it could improve since it's not a really good report writer and it's a little clunky."

"I used their report writing a little bit, however, it could improve since it's not a really good report writer and it's a little clunky."

"The license model is based on consumption."

"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."

"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."

"I used the free trial."

"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."

"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."

"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."

"The pricing is okay."

"The cost of this product is reasonable."

"The Mac licenses are expensive, costing 1,600 dollars each. This is much higher than for the Windows version. I maintain a very limited number of licenses due to this cost."

"The price of Toad Data Point was approximately $500 annually."
