the time savings for a startup to move quickly on moving data and the number of connectors

the only thing that isn't ideal is the email connector does not move only changed or new records but instead the whole file

Easiness and fastness. Also the feedback it provides

The dashboard on the usage is a little bit complex and the connectors, even if the diversity is growing fast, i'm missing some key ones

Two problems mainly: 1. to give autonomy to the teams to better include their data into our centralized database. 2. To centralise data faster

Good Product, Easy Setup, Few Issues

  • August 20, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Setup was straightforward, the connections Fivetran has to different ad platforms were easy to use (just needed to login for the most part).
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, a few syncing issues at first but those are being resolved by our outside consultant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a platform that can easily move data from our ad platforms into our data warehouse. Fivetran came highly recommended because of both the ease of initial setup but also the quality of its integrations.


    Mental Health Care

Great product. Very easily to use and almost maintenance free.

  • August 18, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Lots of connectors. Maintenance-free so far. Affordable. dbt integration is a huge plus
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more connectors, but that may be specific to my use case. UI needs a dark mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick and maintenance-free ELT. We've moved quicker with our analytics plans because the data is available and regularly updated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Compare with competitors. Choose based on the connectors you want. One thing to consider is how you will transform the data post-loading it into your db.

Neat integration tool

  • August 17, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
It's incredibly easy to setup data sources and pipe them where you need especially to Snowflake.
What do you dislike about the product?
There can be some quirks with pricing especially APIs. Start small let ecahbconnection settle then evaluate the cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brining in YouTube data alongside add revenue data to generate some attributable metrics relating to video performance

FiveTran - The flexible yet durable ETL

  • August 17, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran handles the simple UI well. Navigating and setting it up can be mainly done without documentation. The challenge we ran into before with other ETL's that had simple UI's is that they weren't very flexible. There would be rigid limitations in terms of the number of connections per account. Or how they would expect specific tables/fields to behave once selected for loading into a destination.
The best part was with Fivetran; all these minor caveats seemed to be handled and resolved.

Fivetran support system is excellent, as a support ticket is automatically created whenever any of your connectors have an issue. Helping you get a head start if a problem arises, which hasn't happened to me yet!
SSO was also a breeze to set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
The billing system is a bit confusing. While MAR seems like a simple concept, multiple rules make it a bit more complex to understand your bill at the end of the month. It is also pricier than its competitors.

It would be good to see more flexible schedule options. Utilizing the Quartz con expressions that other ETLs use would be a good addition.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A simple Extract and Load process that our internal staff for our clients could easily support.

The largest benefit of using Fivetran has a centralized location to handle all of our client's connections and destinations that is easily supported by a non-technical resource.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a shot for their trial period. Compare to other ETL's and go from there.

Great, solid ELT

  • August 13, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran was very easy to set up and has been rock solid for several months now.
What do you dislike about the product?
We've had issues with email alerts going to spam, leading to pipeline problems not being detected for several hours. A slack integration would help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have data from multiple sources and a rapidly growing volume of data. We don't have time to have engineers maintain custom etl/elt jobs. Fivetran makes that easy.
