It works very well once setup correctly.
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is very easy to use and it works without much of a hassle.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesnt have enough connectors and adding more connectors is not as easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Fivetran to connect our excel data in sharepoint with Snowflake and it worked quite well.
Reliable Extraction tool with a good number of integrations
What do you like best about the product?
Connecting data sources is easy and reliable once when the connection is made. There are hardly any syncs that fail.
What do you dislike about the product?
Less number of integrations on the engineering tooling space. Like say bitbucket, clickup etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helps us build integrations with our platform in minutes instead of weeks.
Easy to use for nontechnical people
What do you like best about the product?
Has a lot of integrated sources and destinations
What do you dislike about the product?
The connection to apple store is not the best, but I think it is from apple side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connect our marketing and sales data to our DWH.
Decent tool that will save your analytic's department time
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to start, you don't need to talk to any sales reps, just create your account and start using this service. Free trial for each new connector – cool feature that gives you enough time to understand whatever everything works as you planned or not.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little bit pricey. The most disturbing thing is that you can't optimise data usage for some of the connectors, it's just impossible to 'unclick' it in the interface, so the data will be synced anyway which will increase your usage and your overall monthly price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to set up ETL quickly without coding, just by clicking. It's definitely a huge time saver for me.
Most Comprehensive ELT tool
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of adding connectors and start schedules is fantastic. The pricing model is easier to understand and reasonable. Dashboards to monitor MAR usage across connectors and accounts help us keep the bills in check. The in-built SQL editor is my most used component.
What do you dislike about the product?
The built-in SQL editor is not the best (small window to code), perhaps because you are deprecating it in 2023.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating data from multiple sources helps us to have a consolidated view.
Good experience
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran helps you centralize data from different places in one data warehouse. The whole concept is strong. The setup is extremely easy, and the support is helpful as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fivetran works with connectors. The principle is easy and strong, but the connector needs to be available. If the connector is not available, you're simply out of luck. You can submit an idea, but you have to wait until they have time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had different data sources in different places, and combining those to get one version of the truth proved to be challenging. Via Fivetran this was very easy to accomplish. Also, once setup you don't have to look back.
Excellent pricing model, good overall functionality
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran's pricing model allows us to really justify our entire reporting stack and data pipeline, because rather than paying per connector, we get to pay per monthly active row.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point, I have not run into any dislikes with the platform; nothing has functioned out of the ordinary.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran has solved our reporting pipeline requirements; as a digital marketing agency, we have a very broad tech stack and report from several different software.
Excellent tool for fast, plug-and-go ELT
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran makes it extremely easy to set up a connector and get your data flowing to a destination right away. Out of the box, they have a huge selection of connectors to common data sources. And once connected, we've experienced minimal to no fuss with our connectors syncing the data on a consistent basis. Fivetran allows our small analytics team to focus our time in other areas instead of fussing with manual script solutions to try and access data from multiple sources.
What do you dislike about the product?
We were a bit surprised with the monthly cost based on the size of our company and data needs. It ended up being significantly higher than we anticipated. However, in the end, we still went with Fivetran due to how easy they've made our entire ELT process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting our data from multiple different sources into our data warehouse so that we can do integrated, full-story analytics on our clientele. Connecting to the data sources and piping the data over on a regular, timely basis in a reliable, scalable manner.
Quick to Set up - very well integrated
What do you like best about the product?
Speedy for the data team to set up and connects perfectly with snowflake. We have been able to move into BI tooling quickly as a result of building this layer.
What do you dislike about the product?
No complaints of the software at this time and the integrations and onboarding team have been excellent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting and data with snowflake and handling ELT and DBT.
Easy set up, excelent customer service and helps us save a lot of time in our analysis.
What do you like best about the product?
The easiness to set up connector with different platforms and the accuracy of the data. If there was a problem, the customer service people tend to help out right away.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would be good to get a projected MAR usage and cost based on the changes you make in the in-between months. As currently, it only shows i'm projectd to spend $300 by in fact it would be way under $150.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building custom tables of daily KPIs from different platforms.
As a consultancy, we save a lot of time gathering data from different platforms and analysing with Fivetran compared to the traditional way.
