Great ELT solution for consolidating data across enterprise

  • August 09, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1. Easy to set up and wide connector availability
2. Billing on monthly active rows instead of events inserted/modified
3. Partner and Pre-sales support
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much to dislike but a reverse integration from warehouse to SaaS sources will also be a great addition
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are integrating Customer data across sales, support, and marketing to create a 360-degree view for the top management and concerned teams. This removes silos and disconnects, such as between sales and support. We are also running analytics on this data to help plan our sales/marketing capacity.

Expensive and not always stable.

  • August 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's straightforward to set up and connects platforms into our data lake with Fivetran.
The UI is intuitive and friendly. Support has been good.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's expensive for what it offers, especially with other solutions around.
We also had some connectivity interruptions.
We had cost surprises, and the team has not been flexible in resolving those.
Sales reps are on aggressive targets.
As a result, we are moving away to other connectors.

Connecting ad platforms and analytics to our Snowflake database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Estimate your usage, so you don't encounter surprises.


    Health, Wellness and Fitness

Great number of connectors, straightforward and easy to optimize pricing

  • August 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to get started, large number of well maintained connectors, and good support
What do you dislike about the product?
Transformations product is not very well developed, not allowing me to use Fivetran to cover more of the data value chain
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fetching data from SaaS services, not having to maintain API contracts for these services saves engineering time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ensure that you have enough connector coverage into your needs, and also be careful about varying row counts (Segment is going to be notoriously expensive compared to a snapshot view like for Shopify or some other SaaS tool).

Fivetran great for QuickBooks Online data!

  • August 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to get started and also offers the ability to connect with custom API scripts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only wish there were more native connectors for low-code apps like Airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it to push QuickBooks Online data to a Google BigQuery data warehouse because you actually can't export all the QBO data there is with the CSV exports they expose in the web application. Because we're able to move QBO data into a data warehouse, we're now able to do incredible business intelligence platform visualizations.


    Consumer Goods

Good service - terrible pricing model

  • August 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Good and growing selection of connectors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing model. FiveTran recently switched to a 'consumption' model from a flat fee. Of course, their costs are not really affected by consumption. The switch is pricing model meant our cost to use FiveTran tripled. The pricing change has caused us to choose another provider.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primary use was to get Magento data into our BI suite.

Mathan's review

  • August 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
good list of connectors to work with. Each connector comes with schema of the source so makes it easy to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
SF connector does not have good cloud solution for syncing formula columns and lookup columns
Needs a snowflake connector
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralizing all our ETL logic in one location
Using Fivetran to connect to source systems that normally we would have to write a script to connect to the source API


    Primary/Secondary Education

Intuitive, user-friendly tool but with limitations to the more tech-savvy at a high price point

  • August 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to set and forget with Fivetran.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fivetran is too costly. Pricing can balloon very quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solved some of our data access and integration problems. Benefits realized were making data accessible, standardized, and removing the need to hard-code pipelines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be weary of the cost of Fivetran, it can balloon quickly. However, it is one of, if not the most user-friendly tool on the market for ELT.
