Seamless
What do you like best about the product?
Great simple solution making it easy to self-service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't had much to dislike so far, good enough for our use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy and secure way to self-serve data sync without the need to involve an engineering team with various tools and platforms.
A good product that does what it says it will
What do you like best about the product?
Census is robust, relatively easy to use/maintain, and solves an important problem for us that would otherwise be very difficult to solve.
What do you dislike about the product?
The two least user friendly aspects in my experience have been diagnosing errors and creating new upsert syncs. Diagnosing errors has been made significantly easier recently however with their API Inspector.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We take data from our CRM, combine it with other sources, and then Census lets us put the resulting data points back into the CRM. This means our customer-facing staff can draw insights and create reports from data points that would not otherwise exist, and this is very helpful.
Census is a very useful piece of software
What do you like best about the product?
The number of integrations offered by Census is great, but my favorite thing is how easy it is to set up and test the SQL that you are reverse ETL-ing into downstream platforms. The UI is intuitive and easy to use, and when I have had problems in the past the customer support team has been responsive to my issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
No complaints here, our use cases are relatively simple (we use Census to reverse ETL snowflake back into Postgres with the intention of using that data in client applications), so Census suits our use case well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Census to reverse ETL from Snowflake back into Postgres for use in our client applications. This allows us to bypass rate limits from upstream APIs, and realtime data is not crucial for our use case, so the delay between the upstream API to Snowflake to Census to Postgres is acceptable.
Fluid integrations requiring minimal effort
What do you like best about the product?
Easy connector setup.
Queries with relative / calculated dates are easily pulled.
Processing speeds seem acceptable for now - still early days using the tool.
Target integration works as expected

What do you dislike about the product?
Not so much the tool limitation, however setting up a snowflake connector required adding multiple tables / permissions to snowflake to allow this to work.
Made the IT department a little uneasy - monitoring performance and serve usage for now.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating snowflake with the facebook api and gsheets.
using census has rediced the number of intermetiate steps to make this possible.
fewer steps, less management and lower risk of issues arising.

Review for Census
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use. There's plenty of connectors to use (atleast the main ones exist).
Haven't run into any performance issues.
I'm unaware of any competitors.

What do you dislike about the product?
Logging in via SSO is confusing UX. There's a login box with User/Pass fields - which looks nothing like an SSO box. Then after putting an SSO verifiable e-mail the Password field disappears and you can sign in via SSO. This took me some time to find out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Census to sync product data from the data-warehouse into Salesforce for the following: Account Prospecting, Account maintainence and support, Sales performance.
It helps us identify B2B users within our existing customer base.

Easy to use

Census was really easy for us to setup and start solving data flows with. It's become a core part of our tool stack. The UI is intuative and the tool was able to make the connections we needed between AWS, BigQuery, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support can sometimes take a little longer to come back on requests which can cause delays. Not a major issue, and probably more driven by us being a faster organization that wants answers immediately

Makes the connection of data super simple. We have so much information floating around and census has accelerated our centralizing of data giving us better access to a single-source of truth
