Nice service to get sources moving. Lots of surprises regarding cost, so plan very carefully.
What do you like best about the product?
Overall ase of use, quick and thorough setup
What do you dislike about the product?
Costs. Onboarding process with sales was either misleading or simply not thought out well enough; they had verbally assured us of guesstimate costs based on our industry, but once we were using it their estimate was very far off the mark.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of use in gathering 3rd party data sources that we needed.
It works very well once setup correctly.
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is very easy to use and it works without much of a hassle.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesnt have enough connectors and adding more connectors is not as easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Fivetran to connect our excel data in sharepoint with Snowflake and it worked quite well.
Reliable, consistent and easy to get started with, but with many levels of complexity
What do you like best about the product?
The API is brilliant. Well documented and easy to understand, it is simple to work with and where things fall short, experimenting in the UI and then replicating the results via the API is straight forwards.
What do you dislike about the product?
The knowledge of third-party APIs and metrics needed to make the most of the system and the many mandatory fields in pre-built reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helps us integrate with multiple data sources. It cuts down the time we need to integrate data from a new source, reducing our need to develop many different methods of authorising data collection and fetching data.

Bunch if emails which spams my inbox all the time. ))
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Transfering data into postgres and also cool thing is that fivetran has a connector for zoho crm.
Reliable Extraction tool with a good number of integrations
What do you like best about the product?
Connecting data sources is easy and reliable once when the connection is made. There are hardly any syncs that fail.
What do you dislike about the product?
Less number of integrations on the engineering tooling space. Like say bitbucket, clickup etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helps us build integrations with our platform in minutes instead of weeks.
Intuitive, simple tool for DIY data pipeline
What do you like best about the product?
Census allowed me, a fairly non-technical marketing exec, to create the report I needed within an hour using the tools I was already familiar with and basic SQL.
The UI was fairly intuitive and the help center was actually helpful solving the issues I had.
Additionally, our analytics team also gets a ton of value from Census creating new data pipelines easily.

What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing model is confusing -- even after review, we don't understand exactly what we are paying for. The biggest obstacle we've actually had is figuring out if new reports will add to our bill. Despite this, we still got an unforeseen price increase and had to go back and remove fields.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use census to connect a number of platforms without having a dedicated data engineering team. In particular, we use the connection between Pipedrive, BigQuery and Google Sheets to develop most of our standardized reporting.
Intuitive, powerful and reliable
What do you like best about the product?
After trying a handful of other ETL/ELT tools, it is amazing how intuitive it is to connect sources to your warehouse and start streaming data. We've been able to sync data at a very low latency and with very low costs, thanks to the MAR pricing model.
What do you dislike about the product?
The difficulty of building custom connectors is an issue, as you'd need to have programming experience. Though I hear an easier option for creating custom connectors is on the horizon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Moving data out of SaaS apps and other internal data sources into a warehouse in order to transform, model, and blend it together in the least anount of time possible - and at a very low cost
Well built and easy to implement
What do you like best about the product?
The user experience for teams that are not specialized in data
What do you dislike about the product?
Mostly the pricing as Fivetran quickly becomes expensive for huge data sources like GA or Amplitude
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bringing data from a variety of sources into a single ware house
Easy to use and manage
What do you like best about the product?
As someone who considers themselves SQL literate, I found the tool very easy to use. I manage out GTM tech stack and Census has been critical in us leveraging product data to optimize our GTM motion.
The team itself is also amazing. They're always willing to help, brainstorm ideas, and share best practices.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really to mention at the moment. The product itself is always growing and anytime I've submitted feedback it's been reviewed and implemented quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a PLG company and on the revenue side, we are most successful when we can leverage product data.
Census helps us with two critical use cases:
1) moving critical product funnel data to other GTM systems to enable Sales/Marketing tactics and reporting and
2) moving usage data to our consumption billing tools, helping to automate our billing process.

Easy to use for nontechnical people
What do you like best about the product?
Has a lot of integrated sources and destinations
What do you dislike about the product?
The connection to apple store is not the best, but I think it is from apple side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connect our marketing and sales data to our DWH.
