Just a little help from my friends!
What do you like best about the product?
Airbyte is great for ETL, it helps a lot to get information out of different sources in various APIs and centralize all of that data in one place to start working with our analysis and create dashboards to understand where we are and make decisions to take all the oportunities it presents to our organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
The problems it may have sometimes when you update a data source connector and the normalization creates different errors in the schema that you have to create the connection all over again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Create custom calls to different APIs and create those workflows to centralize in one database, as well as creating the tables ourselves. It saves us precious time!
Operate data transfers at scale while maintaining full control over data privacy
What do you like best about the product?
- Control of the infrastructure over which the solution is deployed, enabling us to scale to hundreds of flows very quickly.
- An API enabling us to automate most of our tasks.
- An active community receptive to roadmap changes & to user feedback with constant evolution and repriorisation of our painpoints
- Full control over the database of the backend service, offering powerfull monitoring capabilities
- Free with no paid features for self hosted instances
- Complete documentation and easy setup
- Big efforts on a user friendly API

What do you dislike about the product?
- Missing workspace management and navigation (only via API)
- Missing IAM on workspaces (links to the above)
- Some random 500 internal errors from time to time

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Airbyte to operate data sensible flows is crucial for our clients, especially for PII data. Maintaining control and ownership on the infrastructure hosting the service is a crucial winning point vs other market solutions such as Funnel or Fivetran and accelerates and simplifies greatly the our role in answering all of our clients questions and problems regarding GDPR compliance.
Monitoring is way easier, specially when scaling to hundred of flows for various use cases because you have access to the database. Maintenance is also easier with bulk operations made easy.
Replicating methodologies via API automations enables us to create huge synergies for our use cases

Great product.
What do you like best about the product?
Understanding how it is supposed to be used initially was a bit difficult but as I used it and read through there great documentation I found out how effortlessly data can flow from source to a destination
What do you dislike about the product?
The community version doesn't support Jira server and GHE connections. Very hard to navigate around those two sources specially when we are working on DevEx metrix. Also the slack auto bot is good but I do need help sometimes from a live human
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Extraction of data from several sources into one destination.
Simplifying the EL(T) to data pipeline.
What do you like best about the product?
User-friendly without the need for extensive learning. Allows for swift creation of data pipelines, supporting diverse data imports, and customizable import scheduling.
What do you dislike about the product?
Numerous customization options are available, but it also comes with several limitations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The process of swiftly transferring data from one location to another, reducing the time required for coding.
Easy to use with a lot of connectors
What do you like best about the product?
Open source, easy to set up, many connectors
What do you dislike about the product?
Current version of Source connector changing from dev version to a current one after reboot. Notification only via Webhook.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Processing data from MS SQL to our data warehouse in BigQuery
very good choice for small tech companies
What do you like best about the product?
having data from external services in a data warehouse is a standard issue for a lot of companies and for some reason there isn't a single quick way to sort it out.
we chose the open source version of airbyte primarily for the alpha connectors (unavailable in the managed version) and because we're able to deploy it on our k8s clusters and "the backend and data team" (literally two people) work closely together.
deployment and general reliability are very straightforward, and once a connector is set up and starts syncing, it just works.

deployment and general reliability are very straightforward, and once a connector is set up and starts syncing, it just works.
What do you dislike about the product?
many of the connectors are in alpha state and one is generally forced to switch to the open source version if one of those is needed. a few connectors prioritise snowflake compatibility over bigquery (there are a few issues concerning the handling of dates), but everything being open source, it's straightforward to deploy your own patched version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
as mentioned above, we have a few external services which generate data that we wanted to import into our single data warehouse. airbyte does just that, quietly, as promised. much better than a bunch of custom scripts running as cronjobs.
Optimal introduction to the E(TL) framework
What do you like best about the product?
- Ease of setup
- It's possible to create custom connector with minimal effort
- OSS alternative
- intuitive GUI

What do you dislike about the product?
- It only supports time-based flows (scheduled/cron)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airbyte allows even non coders to connect tens of data sources to tens of destinations in basically no time
I have used Airbyte for more than two years for data ingestion
What do you like best about the product?
Airbyte is a great platform for transferring data from data sources such as databases and api's to your data warehouse
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about Airbyte
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It transfers data reliably and quickly from source to destination, has a great selection of connectors as well as the ability to modify and create new connectors in case they are not already available
The new standard for data engineering pipeines
What do you like best about the product?
I love how simple the GUI is to use, and how helpful the octavia-cli is for managing airbyte in multiple environments (dev, prod). Having all our connectors in one place is incredibly helpful, and having such a vast amount of connectors at our fingertips saves us time from creating these things from scratch.
What do you dislike about the product?
We manage airbyte on our own hosted EC2, so there is a fair amount of time associated with maintaining that and getting it set up with a proper CI/CD pipeline. It's a maturing product, so not all the connectors are 100% reliable yet, but they're getting closer every day. I do wish that incremental loads allows for a lookback window (i.e. load everything from the latest date minus 15 minutes onward) to help them be more reliable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to move our data from SQL Server & Salesforce into Snowflake, which allows us to quickly build our data warehouse in one place that's easily accessible to everyone.
Quick and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Airbyte is is very quick to get setup and straight forward to use. We went from hacked together bash scripts to having Airbyte handle our ETL processes in a matter of hours. It supports a large number of sources and destinations which are generally very easy to configure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Open source/self hosted doesn't currently have any user management solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ETL process from our production databases (MongoDB) and customer support tools (Zendesk, Intercom) into our data data warehouse (BigQuery). This has enabled our data team to report on all aspects of the business and if something is missing, it's just a few clicks to get it added.
