It’s helpful and pretty intuitive, but we prefer Hightouch

  • September 15, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The variety of connectors is pretty impressive
What do you dislike about the product?
For custom use cases not supported by the connectors, it doesn't look like the API is as flexible as Hightouch. Also, I would like better alerting features like PagerDuty integration
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sync of data from Snowflake to Airtable

Reverse ETL with excellent support and good integrations

  • September 13, 2022

What do you like best about the product?
Simple, straightforward way to configure and run data syncs from a pre-processed source of truth to other tooling.

Has a clean integration with dbt core so that everything can be source controlled and directly integrated with in-house model definitions. Exposes an API for Airflow (or other orchestration tools) to trigger syncs with upstream dependencies.

Census support is excellent and extremely responsive, making it easy to overcome any issues that we've encountered in our pipeline work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our biggest complaints are around the UI:
- Setting up new syncs can be somewhat time-consuming.
- Viewing the configuration of large syncs is slightly awkward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Handles data pipelines from potentially complex definitions to other tooling. For example, helps to enrich event streams (e.g. in Amplitude or Mixpanel) with calculated user features and enable product led growth motions by syncing product use data to CRMs (e.g. Salesforce or Hubspot).

Exactly what I was looking for!

What do you like best about the product?
easy step by step process, once you are able to get the SQL queries and sync the right fields!
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get a bit pricy if you need a lot of fields synced
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Syncing our customer data across all our tools!

Census is great when we want to sync the data to our salesforce org from different application.

What do you like best about the product?
The connection is easy to use. With 3 clicks we can easily connect to salesforce.
What do you dislike about the product?
when we add a new field mapping and if we try to sync next day, the changes are not saved. But when we do the sync during the same day, we dont see any issues.Hard to find the logs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data sync timing is reduced with Redshift to salesforce. Before it was taking 4 hrs to sync data but it reduced to 15 min now.

Fast, secure and the support is incredible!

What do you like best about the product?
It just works! Easy to setup an account, setup a source and a destination (given you have all proper accesses), and data just flows into a usable data model. Takes hours off from ETL developers so that they can focus on the "T". No need for a developer to go through days of reading documentation, testing integrations, transforming the data, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Missing sources from our pool of applications and the turnaround time to get access to a new source is very slow. The community voting system is great but this still means that I need to have a developer take weeks to integrate raw data from these missing sources.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast data integration allows us to work on data models and transformations more quicker.

Cool tool for syncing internal business data to external customer facing tools

  • August 29, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Census fills a really neat gap in our product cycle where we need to use our internal data to inform various customer-facing needs. Whether that's sending product emails or powering sales tools, Census does a great job of filling that gap
What do you dislike about the product?
At times it can be hard to debug syncing issues. For whatever reason, every so often syncs fail but then auto-recover on their own. There is a lack of visibility of what's going on underneath the hood so that creates a lack of confidence in the stability of the tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem that it is solving is the transferring of internal data to other tools that the company uses. And instead of having to build custom tooling, Census is a flexible tool that we can leverage to meet various needs

What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use and get started on building out ETL framework.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs more connectors, and even setting up simple REST APIs is complicated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No data engineering team required, lots of pipelines are plug/play

Great for mature tech stacks and startups alike

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
ease of use, plug and play, detail of schemas, pre-built dbt packages
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is excessively expensive, it is based on volume rather than value. Some datasets are high volume low value and vice versa. We are not willing to spend so much money for low value high volume sets
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connectors between data sources and warehouse, e.g. Jira, Github etc

What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is a "set it and forget it" product. It has saved our team countless hours of connecting data sources to our data warehouse and allows a large degree of flexibility in the schema.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have many complaints about fivetran. It's a bit expensive, but worth it to our team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data from various data sources into our data warehouse for our data science team to analyze.
