Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.

The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Snowflake + dbt Cloud + Hightouch is the most generally "best" marketing data warehouse + reverse ETL stack for a mid-market B2B company.” GPT-5.4 mini · Warehouse & ETL · direct prompt · first choice
“Snowflake is ideal for mid-sized B2B companies offering scalability, cross-cloud flexibility, and strong marketing platform integrations” MiniMax M2.5 · Warehouse & ETL · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Snowflake is the most popular for mid-market B2B companies due to its ease of use, strong performance, and excellent integrations.” Mistral Small · Warehouse & ETL · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Mid-market B2B with HubSpot/Salesforce CRM, ad platforms and a lean data team usually lands on Snowflake for long term governance” Muse Glimmer 30B · Warehouse & ETL · direct prompt · first choice

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Avoid Snowflake and enterprise ETL tools” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Warehouse & ETL · budget prompt · hard negative
“like Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, or Oracle Database if your team is small, your data volume is modest... cost and management complexity can outweigh the benefits” Perplexity Sonar · DMP · negative prompt · soft negative
“General Purpose Warehouses: (e.g., Snowflake via partner templates) — More control, harder setup, higher engineering overhead.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Warehouse & ETL · scale prompt · soft negative
“Snowflake lacks a permanent free tier (only 30-day trial), making it less ideal for long-term budget use.” MiniMax M2.5 · Warehouse & ETL · budget prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Snowflake. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 247 of the 272 answers that named Snowflake and are not a share of its labels.

As the event pages on snowflake.com state them, read September 28, 2026.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page snowflake.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person. Read September 29, 2026.

Names read as Snowflake

What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as Snowflake; a claim can dispute any of them.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Snowflake's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Snowflake, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

What a new claim receivesHide what a new claim receives

A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Snowflake by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

  • where Snowflake is named, by buyer and by framing, and which cells hold its first choices;
  • the claims the models make when they name it, ranked, with the strongest and the weakest quoted;
  • its vocabulary against the segment leader's, and the pages the models cited;
  • who was chosen in the answers that did not name Snowflake, and every reason the record gives;
  • a battlecard for each top rival: the head-to-head split, why they win, and the reservation quoted against them;
  • one page of published figures cleared to show a buyer.
The subscriber app

A verification link goes to your work email; an address at snowflake.com is approved on the spot, any other is reviewed by hand. Your email is never published. Claiming gives no say over labels, shares, verdicts or which quotes appear.
