Happy Fivetran User
What do you like best about the product?
I like the amount of out of the box connectors that are available to use straight away which comes with step by step instructions on how to easily setup. The support which is available when you need assistance is excellent as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The enhancement requests process could be a bit better. It is difficult to see where each of the request are at and whether there is any realistic chance of them getting onto the product roadmap.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a tool which was easy to use and required minimal maintenance and that is exactly what we are getting. We are able to setup data pipelines with ease and quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you know what data you are going to consume and plan to consume to ensure you can get an accurate estimate.

Allow analysts to work with the freshest possible data
What do you like best about the product?
The UI. Fivetran interface is very easy to use and Fivetran has a really good support team. We usually receive good response from the support team if issue arises
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the cons of Fivetran is the limitation of existing connectors. There are still a lot of third party connectors that Fivetran should consider building in the future
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Fivetran to help solving the problem of data migration by providing a platform that automates the process of moving data from one place to another. Our business performance is heavily dependent on the data ingested from Fivetran
Spencer Nunn - Red Ventures - Fivetran Review
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is intuitive, consistent, and efficient in satisifying our ETL needs. We're able to depend on Fivetran to connect to a majority of our platforms and deliver on our ETL needs in a timely manner.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still lacking in availability of some connectors/destinations. While there's a wide variety of connectors available, we would still like to see others made available (Thinking Verizon Media/Yahoo Advertising as a main one, as well as other major display networks advertisers). Another huge benefit that we could leverage would the be the addition of an Amazon s3 desination (we're currently using the Amazon Redshift destination).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the major ones for us is the email and SFTP connector functionalities. We work with a lot of partners that deliver .csv files via email/SFTP and previously had a lot of custom, in-house processes built to ingest this data. Moving these processes to Fivetran has been huge for us in simplifying our internal codebase and processes.
excellent tool
What do you like best about the product?
easily we can replicate data. one of the best tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
we cannot use this tool for IBMI data to replicate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am transferring the data from different sources into the destination. very easy process and user friendly tool.
Great plug-ans-play solution for data ingestion
What do you like best about the product?
Th pre-built connectors makes data integration super easy, without the need of an expensive data engineering team. If you are using DBT, there is a DBT package for most of the pre-built connectors that will provide configurable data marts/models.
What do you dislike about the product?
New connectors are released infrequently, and pricing is somewhat opaque if you are not familiar. It is somewhat opinionated, so if you are not already using a modern data stack w. their preferred partners it's a bit harder to integrate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deliver value to internal stakeholders quickly, without the need for an expensive data engineering team and stack.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If starting from scratch, try to ensure you are using the full list of preferred data stack.
Fivetran Review
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use; lots of connectors to choose from;
What do you dislike about the product?
Price is hard to predict and could be quite expensive compared with building tools in-house
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Save time on importing data from HubSpot and Quickbooks
Great portal and support but connector bugs let it down
What do you like best about the product?
Portal is very intuitive and support updates are good
What do you dislike about the product?
Pipedrive connector bugs cause us some headaches
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simple cloud based data transfer opens up Tableau reporting
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Seek reviews for the connector you wish to use to ensure its effective and bug free
quarterly Fivetran Product Showcase
What do you like best about the product?
As I'm starting to know about Fivetran, I am not very familiar with it, that's te reason I'm registering to webinars.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not there yet, I'm new to Fivetran, I would like to learn how to use it as where I'm working we use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not solving any problems yet, I'm getting to know it
A pretty good extraction product
What do you like best about the product?
No-code extraction makes it easy for less technical data / operating teams to pull the data from various sources
What do you dislike about the product?
Longer-than-ideal time to get new connectors; for those, customers need to rely on internal (data) engineering teams
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data from various sources without internal engineering resources. Engineers can focus on high-value projects, analysts can analyze the data without waiting for days/weeks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's the industry standard go-to product in the market, but if you do prefer other alternatives, there are Airbyte and Maltano.
most reliable, low-lift solution to data ingestion
What do you like best about the product?
The product is clean and straightforward to use. Other folks at my company had never used Fivetran before and were able to get their connectors up and running within 15 mins. We are a very small data team relative to the size of our company and having a product that we can essentially set up and not give another thought to has been a gamechanger. Fivetran simply does what I need it to do and my CSM has been super-responsive and helpful whenever I need some additional support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fivetran has a heftier price tag than the other products in the ELT space. I would like the integrations with dbt to be stronger and more robust (I think this is in the roadmap). I think it would be useful to have more detailed dbt run logs, for dbt run pricing model to better match how users actually use dbt (don't penalize for using high # of modular dbt models). I would find it immensely helpful if Fivetran produced more content on getting everything we need out of the Fivetran-dbt integration: how-to blogs or follow-along videos for leveraging Fivetran's pre-built models, implementing good CI/CD, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a small data team, we need to be able to surface the high-level KPIs and metrics that company leaders need - and we need to do it in a way that's both scalable and flexible. Fivetran frees up our time to build data products with our data, and not have to sink any time in to getting our data to some place we can work with it.
