I don't think that Census have anything bad
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Synchronising the data with our analytics tools
Great Reverse ETL Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and works with dbt! We love it for getting data into google sheets out of our snowflake database. Its also great for getting data into google ads or hubspot/salesforce.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to complain about! They initially didn't have an airtable connection - but it appears they have that now. Will be going back and checking that out soon!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Avoiding having to write ETL with talend or manually writings jobs to get data out of our database(s) and into various cloud based platforms and apps. Using Census is about 10x faster that the traditional methods.
Data Engineers Shouldn't Write Reverse ETL
What do you like best about the product?
Having written scripts myself to do "reverse ETL" or data activation or whatever we're calling it these days, I can confidently say that most teams shouldn't do this. Census is an excellent tool with all of the features and integrations one would expect. The support is great as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
No complaints. When I started using Census, it was a bit more nascent. It took some time to figure out the nuance. However, it's improved quickly and is even easier to get started with today.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census helps the teams I work with send consistent data to various tools like Salesforce, and helps establish the data warehouse as the hub for information used across the businesses.
Exactly what I was looking for!
What do you like best about the product?
easy step by step process, once you are able to get the SQL queries and sync the right fields!
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get a bit pricy if you need a lot of fields synced
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Syncing our customer data across all our tools!
Fast, secure and the support is incredible!
What do you like best about the product?
It just works! Easy to setup an account, setup a source and a destination (given you have all proper accesses), and data just flows into a usable data model. Takes hours off from ETL developers so that they can focus on the "T". No need for a developer to go through days of reading documentation, testing integrations, transforming the data, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Missing sources from our pool of applications and the turnaround time to get access to a new source is very slow. The community voting system is great but this still means that I need to have a developer take weeks to integrate raw data from these missing sources.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast data integration allows us to work on data models and transformations more quicker.
Good
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use and get started on building out ETL framework.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs more connectors, and even setting up simple REST APIs is complicated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No data engineering team required, lots of pipelines are plug/play
Great for mature tech stacks and startups alike
What do you like best about the product?
ease of use, plug and play, detail of schemas, pre-built dbt packages
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is excessively expensive, it is based on volume rather than value. Some datasets are high volume low value and vice versa. We are not willing to spend so much money for low value high volume sets
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connectors between data sources and warehouse, e.g. Jira, Github etc
Big time saver, lots of well built integrations
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is a "set it and forget it" product. It has saved our team countless hours of connecting data sources to our data warehouse and allows a large degree of flexibility in the schema.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have many complaints about fivetran. It's a bit expensive, but worth it to our team.

Getting data from various data sources into our data warehouse for our data science team to analyze.
