Excellent ETL Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran's best feature is its consistent handling of incremental loads. Setting up efficient incremental loads used to be a major task; now it's the standard for most connections out of the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free usage for new connectors is amazing - it means you get your historical data usually synced for free. I've learned my lesson about syncing all the fields I can up front though - re-syncing historic data outside the free use period because of a field you forgot to include can be expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's made our data warehouse so much easier to maintain and grow. The cost may be higher than rolling your own ETL, but only if you don't value your sanity.
Easy way to connect your data
What do you like best about the product?
Connectors that Fivetran has allowed us to get the data from multiple sources.
What do you dislike about the product?
The place where you paste the query for the transformatios is just anoying you can't edit the query there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is an easy and fast way to allow business people to store the data in our database.
I have been a fivetran user for around 4 years
What do you like best about the product?
Data quality is good. It's easy to use even at large scale implementations, with low administrative overhead. The large amount of possible sources of data is really useful, we could solve many hard request with Fivetran.
What do you dislike about the product?
The way of calculating billing (MAR based) is extremely hard to explain to CFO, and almost impossible to control or influence to lower costs.
It doesn't have integration with cloud provider to move data with thousands of sources, you must configure each auth and connection.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data centralization is the first one.
Fivetran allows us to concentrate all the data from so many different sources to a single DW in a matter of weeks, which has proven extremely useful company-wide.

Great solution but impossible to estimate how much it is going to cost in advance

It is basically impossible to figure out how much it is going to cost from the get-go.

Pulling data from all our business systems into one place is straight-forward

Multiple pipelines.
Excellent Product and Service

What do you dislike about the product?
Truthfully, there was not much that we disliked in our interactions with the Fivetran team or testing we conducted.

We are aiming to seamlessly capture all of our data and automate ingestion with reliable monitoring. We have just started the implementation process.
Fivetran for EdTech startup
What do you like best about the product?
the time savings for a startup to move quickly on moving data and the number of connectors
What do you dislike about the product?
the only thing that isn't ideal is the email connector does not move only changed or new records but instead the whole file
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
having an easy time matching the speed of changes with our software development infrastructure for moving data into a centralized warehouse for analytics
Nice experience. Easiness and fastness
What do you like best about the product?
Easiness and fastness. Also the feedback it provides
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard on the usage is a little bit complex and the connectors, even if the diversity is growing fast, i'm missing some key ones
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Two problems mainly: 1. to give autonomy to the teams to better include their data into our centralized database. 2. To centralise data faster
used it in Bigquery datatransfer
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to start use, no need to develop your own API call system to sync data from 3rd party vandord
What do you dislike about the product?
When problems happened, i need a fivetran support and can't fix them by myself
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Synchronizing Apple Store data to BigQuery
Good Product, Easy Setup, Few Issues
What do you like best about the product?
Setup was straightforward, the connections Fivetran has to different ad platforms were easy to use (just needed to login for the most part).
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, a few syncing issues at first but those are being resolved by our outside consultant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a platform that can easily move data from our ad platforms into our data warehouse. Fivetran came highly recommended because of both the ease of initial setup but also the quality of its integrations.
