Good data integration tool.
What do you like best about the product?
It has been easy to set up and maintain and allows us to keep on systems that otherwise take a lot of maintenance (to be managed manually). It was easy and straightforward to install the connectors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having firebase data is a bit of an effort right now, so we look forward to the connector. We wish that before the data warehouse, they had a transformation sheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helped us to set up our system for internal BI and analytics reporting. Your support team is always great to help us solve problems and we appreciate your product updates. We now have a comprehensive and easy to use reporting tool that puts together data from a range of different sources across our entire ecosystem.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think everything has gone relatively smoothly. I wouldn't change anything, therefore. Naturally, we spent time trying to work on some connectors. Yet it was also a good learning opportunity for our team.
Super powerful and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
I love the amount of connectors that are available.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to change the settings on the email alerts
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Syncing data to our data lake from various different sources. It saves us from having to build the syncing frameworks, alerts, and monitoring of the sync jobs.
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
