ETL Data From Aws Postgres to Snowflake
What do you like best about the product?
I wanted to ETL Data from AWS Postgres to Snowflake and other AI tools. I tried a lot of routes including moving it to S3 and then to Snowflake via Snowpipe. Sometimes the data pipe worked but sometimes I have to manually run the copy queries.
After doing some research online I found out that Estuary Flow does the same pipe building with a click of a few buttons.
The same day I was able to migrate millions of rows. My S3 cost was reduced and I was able to achieve near real-time streaming.

What do you dislike about the product?
Estuary can get the job done but it is not very popular within the E-comm sector. I hope they reach more people.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have all our prod data hosted in Aws Postgres. We could not run analytical queries on them because of the size of the database. We decided to move our data to Snowflake to run OLAP queries. Estuary Flow helped us in moving the data with very little effort.
Easy to use and great support
What do you like best about the product?
It was super easy to set up a real-time streaming data pipeline using change data capture for my database that lives in a secured network. The Estuary team was super helpful when I reached out for some support. Since then, the data flow has been continuously running without any issues for months. The data arrives in the destination in real-time, with schema changes properly handled.
Setting up the connectors didn't take more than a few minutes and the many integrations made it super easy to connect all of our services.
Our whole team is onboarded and uses Estuary every time they need a new pipeline.

What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is a little bit outdated at some points but this takes nothing away from the functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Estuary manages all our data flows from around 10 sources (databases, like Postgres and Oracle in addition to Salesforce, Hubspot, Mixpanel, ad Ad networks like Meta, Tiktok and Snapchat). Estuary connects these sources in real-time to our data warehouse via ETL where we can run historical analytics. We also integrate into Tinybird for real-time analytics without having to create new pipelines or duplicate the data.
Very smooth and intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
I love the getting started experience, the UI is so intuitive and straight forward, we need more of that in the data engineering space! They also have a ton of CDC options which is in high demand and Estuary makes this super easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn't say "dislike", that's a little strong but the transformation experience is a little bit awkward from a context switching perspective. I'd also like to see the ability to deploy pipelines as self-hosted agents or even a BYOC deployment model.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CDC to other streaming platforms like Redpanda and Mongo change streams.
Estuary Flow Visualization Tool
What do you like best about the product?
data integration which provides integration with many different datasources and provides best visualization tool for analytics purposes
What do you dislike about the product?
technical support and complexity of the usage for non-users
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
integrating with pipeline on how data is flowing through the organization and anaylsing the data for taking better decisions
The Perfect Tool for Rapidly Deploying Near-Real Time Analytics
What do you like best about the product?
Besides the UVP of the product itself (user-friendly UI/UX for data streaming), the Estuary team really sets itself apart from the competition in terms of the excellent level of support they've given us both over the course of our trial with them and the support they continue to give us going into the future with Estuary Flow an invaluable part of our data stack.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our usage of instant data updates has resulted in some not-insignificant Snowflake virtual warehouse costs - and while we did come to expect this during our tria, we hope that the Snowflake materialization connector will receive some extra love in the future to help us wrangle these costs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Near-real time analytics has become an important selling point for our business and our clients are becoming increasingly data-driven - without Estuary Flow we could not have brought that feature to our clients as rapidly as we did.
MongoDB to BigQuery
What do you like best about the product?
We needed an easy way to integrate Mongo to BigQuery. It took us a few days to implement. It ended up being almost 1/10th the cost of Fivetran, and we could get it to work quickly. We struggled getting Airbyte to work.
What do you dislike about the product?
i have not found anything i dislike so far
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps us stream data to BQ from mongo at very good price
Unparalleled Power and Support
What do you like best about the product?
Estuary Flow is an incredibly powerful product, and the Estuary team bend over backwards in supporting their customers. As a company they are more of a partner then merely a service provider, which makes working with them exceptional.
As we are in the Telecommunciations space we handle a large amount of data, have very low latency requirements, require absolute integrity and reliability, and are cost sensitive. Estuary handles all of this, and some more with its flexible and powerful transformations.

What do you dislike about the product?
Complex to create transformations, which comes hand in hand with the power, and is something actively being improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Low latency, flexible, and reliable ETL.
Estuary Flow saves us time and money moving our data to multiple destinations!
What do you like best about the product?
The time it saves our devs - they do not need to learn the ins and outs of multiple data destinations. Estuary Flow also provides fantastic support!
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI has been difficult to use at times, but it is constantly improving, and the team has always helped us navigate it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to get data from our internal data stores into tools for analysis. Estuary Flow makes that process simple!
Enhancing Business Insights: Empowering Data Loading of Google Firestore with Estuary Flow
What do you like best about the product?
One of the aspects I appreciate the most about Estuary Flow is its ability to seamlessly and efficiently replicate and load data from Google Firestore into our enterprise data warehouse. The tool simplifies the entire process, allowing us to consolidate and analyze our data without the complexities typically associated with data loading from Firestore. This streamlined approach has saved us valuable time and resources while providing reliable and accurate data for our business insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my experience with Estuary Flow, while the majority of the user interface is intuitive and user-friendly, I did find that certain aspects required a learning curve initially. However, the Estuary team was incredibly supportive and responsive, assisting me in achieving the desired behavior we were aiming for. Their prompt assistance and guidance made the learning process smoother and more efficient.
Furthermore, I have noticed that Estuary Flow has made continuous improvements to the user experience (UX) over time. The product updates have introduced enhancements that have empowered us to become more self-serviced in managing the data replication and loading tasks. These improvements reflect the commitment of the Estuary team to listen to user feedback and evolve the software to better meet the needs of their customers.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Estuary Flow solves the challenge of efficiently replicating and loading data from our Google Firestore database to our Snowflake data warehouse. This solution eliminates the complexity and manual effort involved in data replication by automating the process. It ensures that our data warehouse stays current with near real-time updates from Google Firestore. Estuary Flow improves data consistency and accuracy. With its reliable replication mechanisms and automated conflict resolution, we can trust that the data loaded into our data warehouse is synchronized accurately and without discrepancies. This data integrity enables us to make informed decisions about our customers based on reliable insights derived from our consolidated data.
An early stage company enjoying Estuary Flow
What do you like best about the product?
We're a big fan of Estuary's real-time, no code model. It's magic that we're getting real time data without much effort and we don't have to spend time thinking about broken pipelines. We've also experienced fantastic support by Estuary, sometimes they go as far as to make a change for us if it's easier for them to do so.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're not sold on the transformations being done in Estuary yet, choosing to stick with DBT for the time being there. They've just released SQL transformations though so this could change over time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Injesting data from sources we need it to, without having to run infrastructure ourselves and deal with that overhead. The real-time model has meant we don't have to configure timed collection of the data either.
