Lead Solutions Architect
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy with directly available integrations. Great to maintain and access logs.
Debugging is also made simple and ETL friendly. Would like more options as part of the integrations available.

What do you dislike about the product?
Less number of options that's a straightforward integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Writing back our product's data onto the customer's tools and readily available integrations. Easy to navigate across UI and debug friendly.
Reverse ETL made easy
What do you like best about the product?
We use Censue for our reverse ETL process. We send data from our Data Warehouse to our CRM system. Setting up Census is pretty easy and hassle-free. It comes with an intuitive UI to navigate for our users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although having a plug n play tool like Census helps operationalize processes pretty quickly, one drawback is there is no visibility of what's going on behind the scenes. That makes us nervous about handing the process over to nontechnical people.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census is primarily being used for reverse ETL purposes at our company. We have stored data and logic in our Data Warehouse which is then sent to our CRM system for sales reps.
Census Review
What do you like best about the product?
Good amount of connectors and overall design is pretty easy to use. Syncs/Models have a good breakdown and any changes in source/destination schemas are reflected in the sync for errors too.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some errors are challenging to understand and track, most of them need a ticket to the census team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reverse ETL for me. Really helpful and unlocking a huge use-case for us.
Everything and Anything related to Data
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of the census is the capabilities that it offers and the broad support for data sources providing more flexibility in data operations and getting data managed with syncs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I disliked the price point its quiet expansive for a startup coming with bootstrap, also there were many instances where there were limitations in syncs and only one operation was done at a time which is not justified with the price point coming on and feels over-priced.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data management and data syncs from different sources was not possible manually, census has helped us in solving that problem and allowed us to perform data operations and manage data from different sources at one place.
Neat tool for productivity
What do you like best about the product?
The space it fills in the data field. There are many systems today's businesses run on. Data is the fuel that empowers them all. Census enables users to get data in the right places.
What do you dislike about the product?
There could be more flexibility geared toward business users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pushing data into platforms our front-end teams use.
Fivetran review
What do you like best about the product?
Its use is easy to understand with a modern structure that has provided solutions for data movement for better analysis, its attention is as desired in times and responses.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit expensive due to its high price plans that not everyone can afford this amount of money.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Out-of-the-box data integration and data collection makes data analysis more detailed
Great reverse ETL tool
What do you like best about the product?
It is super easy to configure and maintain, most things are clicking through. SQL models and syncs are super intuitive. In our case, it is the best tool to quickly provide value to the business or POC some solutions, without huge development effort.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I can think of is not always the best notifications of syncs. Census is always providing very helpful notifications on sync failures, but more from the Census end. If an actual error happens on the destination system end it is not always considered a sync failure. For example Salesforce sync and if we have rows that are going to be rejected by Salesforce, via Census it is considered as correct - where from my perspective it should be something like a warning at least.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick POC development and quick integrations with systems that we don't have any other customer integrations internally. A quick way of providing value to the business.
Solid Reverse ETL, Usage-based Pricing is Limiting
What do you like best about the product?
It just works. We use Census to sync data from our warehouse into marketing, sales, and customer success tools. Whenever we need to add a new field to those tools, Census is our go-to. It's simple, straightforward, and just works as expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing is a little limiting. We're paying for the number of destination fields so while it's easy to add new fields to Census to sync elsewhere, it's also easy to hit the cap. We find ourselves having to clean out and remove fields on a regular basis that we would otherwise keep syncing. Obviously, we could increase our plan limit to avoid this, but it's easy for costs to scale quickly once you're in the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Census to sync fields between tools and from our data warehouse (fivetran/redshift) to tools like Salesforce, Hubspot, Vitally, etc.
Useful hub for all data pipeline with statuses.
What do you like best about the product?
Clean interface, real-time data, single source of truth
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like an easier ability to drill into the code bases of what queries are powering the ETL jobs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is aggregating all data pipeline in one place.
Great tool for Salesforce
What do you like best about the product?
Our company uses census to streamline our salesforce/database sync process. This makes the sync between these 2 sources much easier and allows for the flexibility we need in a ETL tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much! The tool does everything we need for this solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have some complex calculations that we perform in a system outside of salesforce. This allows us to selectively sync data back and forth between the data warehouse and SFDC.
