Data Scientist
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is a fantastic product! It allowed us to quickly go from data living in several different systems to one consolidated data warehouse.
What do you dislike about the product?
The transformations beta product is inconsistent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem of connecting data from a number of different sources/systems.
Absolute No-Brainer
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran as a tool is incredibly intuitive and, due to its speedy implementation time, almost immediately generates value for the business. Additionally, no real coding experience is required to use the tool, making it an excellent choice for analysts without an engineering background.
What do you dislike about the product?
Potentially, one could argue that Fivetran's pricing is steep - especially if you plan on syncing high-volume connectors like Google Search or Google Ads (at least those are the highest-volume connectors for us).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Fivetran allows us to centralize data across our most essential source systems. The seamless integration with dbt additionally facilitates the planning and execution of transformation jobs overarching the whole data pipeline. The only thing currently missing is some Reverse ETL feature.
This product is a lifesaver!
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran has enabled us to connect all our disparate SaaS data sources into Snowflake and combine them with our in-house data. It is fast, reliable, and they constantly keep up with changes so we do not have to. It has been a lifesaver in getting several sources of data together without worrying about writing our own event processor or other solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cannot say anything bad, we have not had an issue yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use several SaaS platforms, and have a lot of internal databases. Our customers want to see integrations of data between those sources and our data, and prior to Fivetran, our ways of doing this were very primative. Enter Fivetran, and now we have constant automated collection of our SaaS data, our relational data is being integrated into Snowflake as well, and we are finally able to provide our users with simple sets of data sources combining all of our platforms from 1 location.
Fivetran Review
What do you like best about the product?
Best platform for building automated data pipelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike about Fivetran, seamless use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needed to help our clients aggregate their data from multiple sources and then centralize it for their use.
Intuitive, powerful way to manage ETL processes without relying on an engineering team.
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran allows me to get the data I need from all of our most common SaaS tools in a very straightforward, easy-to-understand way. Setting up new connections is extremely simple and reliable in an engineering agnostic way which 1) allows our engineers to focus on the product and 2) puts the power in our hands as an analytics team to quickly and efficiently stand up data pipelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fivetran in general checks all the boxes of what we need, but you need to be careful when setting up new connections to make sure to only select the data you need. In the past, I've accidently synced huge tables that I dont need the data from which caused an increase in our monthly cost. That said, the cost wasnt too much and I was easily able to turn off the sync on that table and return to normal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran gives us out-of-the-box integrations into our data warehouse from our most commonly used SaaS tools, allowing us to easily pool all of our data within our warehouse.

I love how easy it is to setup new connectors and start bringing new data into my warehouse. I can connect new datasets and work with that data in my end state in minutes.

As with any tool it takes a little while to get acquainted, but I found it relatively easy to figure out how everything works.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helps me move data into my data warehouse that otherwise sit in a silo. Being able to put disparate datasets side by side realizes enormous value for our company.

What do you dislike about the product?
Initial sync times & connector setup times are set for life, meaning if you are specifically looking at specifically timed extracts, there is a little bit of disconnect.
