easy to use tool
What do you like best about the product?
Really easy to set up - does not require a ton of technical knowledge at all. Transparent pricing at the time we used the tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
Didn't really have huge issues, any time we had small ones their team was always responsive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census enabled us to get information from our data warehouse to our CRM
Incredible tool
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to use, super intuitive. The integrations are very easy to setup and there are so many integrations available. It's saved our company so much time and freed up our data team to work on more complex data problems
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to gauge how many fields you need when setting up a sync, and it's quite easy to reach the maximum number of fields. It'd be really helpful to see a list of the fields that are actually in use and for which tools, in order to optimise the number of fields in use
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use various tools that we need to sync our user data to. Historically, everytime we needed to integrate a new dataset to a new tool, our data team would have to do all of the leg work, pulling them away from other projects. This way, anyone can add new data integrations and we can leverage our user data across all of our apps
Makes data activation easy
What do you like best about the product?
I love being able to push data from our warehouse to other tools easily
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally I see an error message that would benefit from more detail
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census makes it easy for me to sync data between tools without needing engineering help or having to export spreadsheets
Critical Tool for Data Processing
What do you like best about the product?
Sleek Design, Intuitive Search Functionality, Flexible Sync Scheduling, AirTable Integration
What do you dislike about the product?
Quirky Behavior at Times (will sometimes be forced back to the Sync page, or Large Syncs with 20+ fields will sometimes fail to load the individual fields when choosing Google Sheets as a Destination)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census has promoted synergy between our Data Warehouse where we perform custom calculations and scoring for several data-points and our CRM (SFDC) and has reduced the reliance on tools such as Tableau to access vital information.
Census is friendly place to start your Reverse ELT journey
What do you like best about the product?
Helpful support. Willingness to take on new connectors and tweak existing ones.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI could use some refinement, but overall very solid.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census allows us to find edge cases in our data and assign the correct person to fix very complex issues using Asana and Reverse ETL. This has been a huge benefit to our business.
Easy to use Reverse ETL tool
What do you like best about the product?
The user interface makes it easy to understand which syncs are active and when they were last run. Makes our life very easy when maintaining data cleanliness in Salesforce
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was possible to have multiple users as the connection user so that we know who owns which sync.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating data entry and integrity between our data warehouse and Salesforce.
Best SaaS product I've implemented in the past 8 years
What do you like best about the product?
Census is the easiest to implement, and one of the most powerful toolsl in our tech stack. We use Census to accurately push data to our CRMs, GSheets, and any platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really can't think of a single thing. At one point, the platform was more analytics engineer focused, but now, you can go heavy on tech expertise and build your own model OR integrate with something simple. We balance using Census SQL models and just simple BI Looks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census sends data where and when we want it, accurately. Need to trigger a marketing email when X happens, we have the ability to do it. Need to give the Account Management team more data points, done. Need to provide our sales team with real time context, done.
Excellent Service Provider
What do you like best about the product?
Seamlessly integrates large amounts of data and offers great segmentation for user targeting and syncing for various data sets from our data warehouse to a number of external connectors
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool is very powerful, but to make use of a number of features it may take time to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census segments and distributes data to a number of our digital advertising partners
Makes data activation easy
What do you like best about the product?
Census makes it really easy to move data between applications or out of your warehouse into other tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a bit of a learning curve to the interface
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I need to keep data synced between different tools that don't necessarily integrate directly with each other, Census makes this possible.
Just getting data out of applications into always up-to-date spreadsheets is a huge benefit.
Just getting data out of applications into always up-to-date spreadsheets is a huge benefit.
Financial Analyst
What do you like best about the product?
It's very intuitive and easy to use without an engineering background. I was able to navigate the pages using the side panel easily and set up links quickly and accurately.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tests that I ran did not always work off the bat. I also did not pickup on the need to "Force Sync" when changing any of the parameters in the receiving software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Census is helping streamline data from our Looker database into Anaplan, which is saving a ton of manual effort pasting the data over from one to the other. It allows me to quickly sync the data and have it reflected in my model.
