Workflow management software, activity tracking and the best for easy data pulling across other platforms very easily.

Pros

Data import across others platforms, productive data analytics and very effective for the activities tracking. The Drag and Drop interface is more helpful on easy navigation, easy to collaborate and monitoring on real-time capability is nice.

Cons

Nothing was detected as a problem on the system usability and also on getting started with the platform and the features.

When data quality and real-time matters

Reviewed on 24/6/2021

Very satisfied

Very satisfied

Pros

It is very transparent as it is an open source software. We set up the validation rules, data modeling rules and data schema, so all in all it is very personalizable. During the onboarding process we got a lot of help from the success team, they were (and still are) really helpful.

Cons

You need some data engineers and architects to set up the data pipelines internally to on-premise datalake or to other marketing tools. It is not particularly Snowplow's fault, you just have to calculate with this issue if your company has strict security standards. It would be the same with other tools as well.

Being a snowplow user and contributor for more than 4 years, I'm all sold and wouldn*t exchange it for another tool set.

Pros

Snowplow allows you to acquire such a great variety of data which is available to us in full detail and resolution. Additonally the whole ecosystem if stream and batch processing makes it a universal tool for a lot of enterprises

Cons

The learning curve is really steep if you start and read through all the wiki documentation. Good thing it exists, but i can see people being startled at first
