Top data-sync SaaS
What do you like best about the product?
ease of use of the product. Very large connector list. Simplifies the whole Extraction process and data-engineering work.
What do you dislike about the product?
performance of some loading queries and processes can be more fine tuned according to the destination datawarehouse
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enabling faster and easier data extraction from multiple sources of data into a single datawarehouse repository. It is super beneficial as it replaces some data-engineering positions at a lower price for the work the tool does.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
it is the tool to go to for when using modern ELT architecture
great platform for connecting datastores
What do you like best about the product?
turnkey connections to SFDC and Postgres on the ingest side, and snowflake/redshift/postgres on the output side
What do you dislike about the product?
we've often hit the limits of their auto ingest for postgres, which makes us have to do dev work, which defeats the purpose
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
get data out of production servers into analytics servers without eng effort
Recommendations to others considering the product:
saves a ton of time
Fivetran works so well we don't even think about ETL much.
What do you like best about the product?
Great service and people. I have used them since they started, the service and features keep getting better.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike. Sometimes we have specific needs that we could work on right away if we were coding our own ETL, but it is just not worth it any more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pulling data from external and internal sources into a data warehouse for reporting and analysis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Fivetran is still our first choice after using them for almost 3 years. With cloud based services like Looker that don't require a traditional data warehouse to be designed and built, I was looking for a service exactly like Fivetran, that simply moves the data from one place and does the necessary data type transforms for what ever destination is used.
Incredible ROI; Replaces a full-time software engineer
What do you like best about the product?
Damn simple to setup and add new data sources. No maintenance required. Support was always available
What do you dislike about the product?
Some initial problems syncing very large SaaS instances, but Fivetran Support worked around them and everything
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automated data pipeline - exporting data from databases, NetSuite, flat files and social media into Amazon Redshift
Recommendations to others considering the product:
100% worth the small cost
