Bottom line: Snowflake faces a brand awareness problem on DEV. Nearly half of respondents either never heard of it or can't describe what it does. Even among those who know it's data-related, most lack hands-on experience and resort to generic descriptions or website copy. The technical community that should be Snowflake's core advocates is largely disconnected from the product.
