Reviewer scorecard
“350+ connectors and open source. The community connector marketplace grows faster than any proprietary alternative.”
“Separate compute/storage architecture scales independently. Snowpark and data sharing enable modern data architectures.”
“Open-source Fivetran alternative that you can self-host. The connector quality varies but the breadth is unmatched.”
“Expensive at scale and credits pricing is confusing. DuckDB + Parquet handles more analytics than people realize.”
“Data integration is commoditizing. Open-source connectors maintained by the community will win long term.”
“The data cloud concept — sharing and collaborating on data — is where enterprise analytics is heading.”
