Reliable fast moving ETL service
What do you like best about the product?
They were very fast to deliver an integration that we were looking for when we were missing it initially during our trial period, and had professional and quick response times on any questions we had.
What do you dislike about the product?
A downside is they haven't yet got an integration with all of the services in use at our company for which we would like to setup a Census sync, but that is something that might change given time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting the data that we collected into the services and applications in use by the various teams within our company, and have these syncs setup in a developer and maintenace friendly way.
Census review
What do you like best about the product?
Makes it easy to get your data from a db to other tools or from other tools to your db. An example:
- Syncing properties into marketing automation tool (e.g. Customer.io) from Snowflake
- Syncing properties into marketing automation tool (e.g. Customer.io) from Snowflake
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike, if you aren't familiar with the data space it can be a little difficult to get started, but I've tried out other "Reverse ETL" tools in the space and Census seems like the easiest to get started with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting useful data from your data warehouse to other tools that could benefit. Marketing automation is the use case that I've run into the most. Being able to know if a person did certain actions in-product can inform what emails they get, and make the experience feel more personalized and useful for them.
Great UX and intuitive design
What do you like best about the product?
The excellent UI and UX make the tool easy to pick up quickly and understand. Having never used Census before I was able to log in and fix an issue with a sync within just a few minutes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was not able to solve an error alone with a new sync due to a type case error and had to reach out to the census support team. In the end the error turned out to be different from the what was displayed in Census, so it made troubleshooting difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to create models in our DWH and send that output back to our CRM Tool Klaviyo easily. So Census is acting a reverse ETL tool for us.
A must-have tool for getting your data to be where you need it
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use, intuitive, and potent solution to get data flowing to all the right places. Even small companies can now benefit from an efficient data structure thanks to tools like Census.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the pricing should be based on actual data being transferred. The number of fields method feels arbitrary. Also, troubleshooting when things don't work correctly could've been more straightforward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting all the relevant data for sales teams into Salesforce without writing a single line of code. That helps the team save time by not having to use multiple apps to get the data they need to operate.
All I need to push data from my DWH back to CRM
What do you like best about the product?
Easy use, good overview, lots of connectors...
What do you dislike about the product?
Could use more sync fields in the lower packages...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting important data and calculations from our DWH into our CRM.
Great product that does exact what it should
What do you like best about the product?
Allows us to easily send data to all of our key sources. And once it's set up, the tool keeps an eye to ensure that things are working with very little interaction from us... that is unless something goes wrong (which is infrequent) and the tool lets us know.
What do you dislike about the product?
This isn't a blocker for us, but Census is building out their connector base. They have all of the critical connectors we need, and they have been extremely helpful in prioritizing product and eng effort to build out the new sources as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data out from our data stack to downstream systems with minimal effort. Normally I would need to have a person monitoring this, but Census serves that purpose.
Amazing tool fits in very well for our use cases
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is super simple to use and navigate around very easy to test
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see some feature upgrades but there is nothing I dislike about it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census is helping us with our marketing data sync - Forget me request automation, updating auduiences in Mailchimp
Overall easy to use platform and an engaged product/support team
What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to set up and schedule new syncs. I'm happy with the platform itself as it's intuitive to use and troubleshoot where there are any errors. The team support we get as well is top-notch. I really appreciate the thorough responses and feel that the team there does everything possible to resolve any questions or requests we have. Census also agreed to help build out some functionality we needed for our use case and they delivered it quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
On the platform side, it can be tedious to test as once a sync is created we cannot change the destination. So if I build and test a large sync to the salesforce sandbox, the sync has to be recreated for prod. This just opens a window for error particularly when many columns are named too similarly in either the data or SFDC directly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a lot of data that needs to be shifted from system to system. Census makes that process 10x easier than doing these syncs without a service provider, and makes it far less error prone.
Very easy to use and very useful to automate and avoid unnecessary repetitive work
What do you like best about the product?
Using the tool to automate processes and avoid unnecessary work by making things very efficient thru queries and scheduled runs
What do you dislike about the product?
Tool is easy to use when you get the hang of it, but maybe would make a quick runthru tool to make sure you know what to use while onboarding
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating processes that would otherwise require a whole team to stay on top of and manage
Census has been very helpful for data integrations and automating our notification system
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use, saving us a lot of time when we need to add new integrations to our Data Warehouse. It has also helped us reduce lots of custom code and manual work.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Slack notifications we have used so far have been pretty rigid. It would be nice to customise the outlook of the notifications more than currently possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census is helping us with our data integrations to the Data Warehouse. Additionally, we also use it to send out slack notifications when certain alerts are triggered.
