Great number of connectors, straightforward and easy to optimize pricing
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).

Data connection
What do you like best about the product?
Ease to make connections between different data sources
What do you dislike about the product?
If your data is large its going to cost a alot
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connection between different data sources. We could do it with fivetran without using any code
Fivetran great for QuickBooks Online data!
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.
Good service - terrible pricing model
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.

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

Intuitive, user-friendly tool but with limitations to the more tech-savvy at a high price point
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.
Easy to use, very well documented data transferring solution
What do you like best about the product?
For their specific functionality, the documentation is excellent. Once the setup is completed, it simply works.

So far, I haven't had any issues. Our only concern was about sending our data through a third party, but their security standards seemed ok
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data migration into Snowflake
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't be afraid to contact technical support. They're friendly and very knowledgeable.
Easy to use and reliable tool
What do you like best about the product?
The best part is the ease of use and how quickly you can go from zero to start the data sync!

We have been using fivetran for a few months now, as of now things are smooth.

We are solving the problem of capturing change data from application DBs, google spreadsheets etc this has reduced a lot of development effort for critical pipelines
Modern way to do ELT!
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy connectivity to cloud systems!
What do you dislike about the product?
Better overall reporting of all ELT jobs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There is no need for Integration engineers to do APIs between our many cloud systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have many cloud databases to connect the FiveTran tool is amazing. Setup connections in under 30 minutes and start ingesting data. In the old days this took a month and a team!! This tool has made my small BI team really look great as we can ingest new data and get it into Looker FAST and accurately!
