Amplitude verdict

Worth it for product teams that will invest in instrumentation. Without that discipline it is an expensive chart generator.

  • Deep behavioural analysis without SQL
  • Strong retention and cohort tooling
  • Warehouse sync avoids a data silo

Snowflake verdict

The lowest-operations warehouse available. Budget for a FinOps owner from the start.

  • Almost no operational overhead
  • Zero-copy cloning transforms development workflows
  • Best-in-class cross-organisation data sharing
