Great for data pipelines

  • April 16, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is straightforward to set up with most pipes into an existing warehouse
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a somewhat confusing pricing structure, and some updates are slow
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Fivetran for piping data from data sources where keeping up with changing API endpoints is just more work than we want to do as this is not our primary business.

Amazing Product That's Easy to Use & Best in Class!

  • April 16, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to use. Everything "just works." I'm genuinely impressed with how they've made the complicated ELT process so approachable & effortless. I've used ELT tools in the past that were super hard to configure and use, however Fivetran literally blew me away with its user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they had a generic REST API connector for custom applications. They work so well with the connectors they have (which is ever-growing) but having a generic connector that I could configure with custom HTTP requests would be awesome!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal Analytics! We have data in all sorts of sources (from Salesforce to our own product's databases) & Fivetran is what we use to get all the data into our data warehouse.

Fivetran: Simple and swift

  • April 16, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran configuration to ingest data from a different data source is very simple. We have connectors available for multiple data sources.
Easy to setup and simple to use. Manual File loads can be done.
What do you dislike about the product?
We don't have connectors to different API applications. We will not be able to configure the table names to start with "underscore". Adding more connectored to new application will improve the reach of fivetran.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are ingesting data from different applications into our data lake using FIVETRAN. It helps to reduce the time of implementation.
Increased overall team productivity. Connectors are available to export data from most of the applications that we use in our IT, finance, marketing and sales.

Software which can be used as a good connector.

  • April 16, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part is that it has a very user friendly User Interface and also shows logs in case you have a connector. The connectors used are also easy to manage with Frivetran UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have a lot of connectors build right out. We have to manually build connector using AWS lambda and then integrate with Fivetran. For some the above can be a pro but for us it is a con.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting two services like Snowflake and Gainsight or connecting Snowflake with OpenAir. The benefit Fivetran provides is that it gives a middleware between these systems and allow data transfer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want software for data transfer or data replication between two systems/services, you can go by Fivetran.

I truly recommend it. It would improve your everyday work.

Great tool to streamline your data process

  • April 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is great for streamlining the data process and bring data from various sources into a single place. As a data scientist, this saves me countless hours dealing with data pipelining / uploading / downloading. I can focus on the work itself instead of wasting time just to figure out how to get data into a place where I can run code.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it could be made even easier to connect various data sources; the fewer clicks the better. Especially around google sheets, I wish the process could be more streamlined and requires less URL copy pasting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bringing data from a variety of sources into the datalake. I work with Excel, google sheet, csv, and other types of data when working with cross-function teams, but data scientist often needs to put the data into some sort of database before meaningful work can be carried out. Fivetran saves me countless of hours with that.

Solves for issues around ingesting external data

  • April 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to set up CSV exports for data that lives outside of internal systems
What do you dislike about the product?
Would be great to have some sort of version control
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran is used to ingest external data that is manually entered in via gsheets. It is also used to ingest data from other sources like Salesforce

Required Software for Cutting Edge Data Teams

  • April 15, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to set up and how reliable it is. It rarely has downtime / syncing issues. If I do, I can submit a support ticket and will get a quick response.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish all the connectors I used internally were available in their connector marketplace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I no longer have to think about how I am getting data into the warehouse. It has freed up engineering resources to do analysis instead of data capture.

Easy ETL GUI!

  • April 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy drag and drop functionality works great! The tools make it very easy to move data stored locally on my computer into our database, and this saves me and my team time and headaches caused by other less functional tools
What do you dislike about the product?
File names have to be precisely the same or the data appends instead of replaces
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data into our AWS Data Warehouse from csv
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are considering using this software, I would say go ahead and live that dream. You should buy this tool because it will improve your everyday work and who doesn't want their job to be more accessible more fun, take less time, have more impact, and use more words such that your review receives a higher grade and you get a free gift card for filling out all the boxes. While the AI is adept at telling how many unique words I am using, it fails to capture that I just rambling in this final section in order to get my free gift card. I really just want to receive my free gift card so if you are reading this, know that when you buy the tool, you yourself will have an opportunity to complete a review of this nature and also get your own free gift card? Who doesn't love that? You could buy legos, or you could buy a scooter or you could just save the gift card for when it's someone's birthday and then get them a gift!

Less maintenance, more time to work on other things.

  • April 15, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran makes landing our third-party platform data much more manageable, giving us time back to work on more custom solutions for our data. What used to be work that only Data Engineering could manage can now be controlled by other less technical people.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some data sources don't have built-in connectors, so data engineering still needs additional work for those sources.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran solves the problem of limited data engineering bandwidth. It opens up the ability to manage data sources to a whole new group of people outside of data engineering.
