Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 19, 2024

Review summaries and opinions

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

ROI

Sentiment score
5.8
Domo's impact varies widely; some report negative returns, while others achieve over 300% ROI through improved efficiency and decision-making.
Sentiment score
6.5
Fivetran enhances efficiency and saves resources by reducing data engineering needs, though its cost may limit financial returns.
If you're actually using Domo at a very limited case and you're being charged $20,000, we've seen ROI there, but once it goes really high, you really need to check your metrics and check your profit.
It saves us the effort of having one to two data engineers managing the tasks that Fivetran handles.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.7
Domo's customer and technical support is generally responsive but inconsistent, with room for improvement, especially for smaller clients.
Sentiment score
6.2
Fivetran's support is responsive and effective, with enterprise plans offering especially timely assistance despite occasional delays.
They were quite professional and in around three to five working days, they had identified where they suspected there was an issue and I was able to fix it.
It's very easy to get technical support from Domo.
Support-wise, they are good.
If they could provide support more quickly, that would be great.
The technical support provided by Fivetran has generally been good, with a response time and competence that I would rate as good.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
6.3
Domo supports scalable growth and user expansion, despite challenges with large files and some performance issues at high volumes.
Sentiment score
7.2
Fivetran scales effectively for all business sizes with adaptable costs, handling large data well but may incur higher expenses.
The fact that you're able to easily identify the pipelines or flows that have errors, and it notifies you when you're building a pipeline where you can run previews and tell where to fix issues, is helpful.
When fetching files larger than 100 MB from SFTP or any other portal, Domo becomes slow due to the heavy file size.
Sigma, which is written for Snowflake, scales more easily than Domo.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.8
Domo is reliable with 99% uptime; issues usually arise from external factors, not from Domo itself.
Sentiment score
7.9
Fivetran is praised for stability and reliability, with strong data accuracy, self-recovery, and minimal downtime, despite rare issues.
In recent years, I haven't had such cases. It's quite stable and I don't have any reservations on its stability.
In terms of overall stability of the platform, it's very stable.
During that time, we faced issues from the project side as Domo was not visible in our portal.
They have 99.9% accuracy on the data load and they maintain transparency.
During the duration of the time that we used Fivetran, it was highly stable.
 

Room For Improvement

Domo needs improved usability, integration, and support, along with intuitive interfaces, flexible pricing, and advanced features for better user experience.
Fivetran needs to improve database connections, user interface, data security, documentation, monitoring, cost efficiency, and customer support.
End users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive.
Some technical aspects such as Beast Mode calculation could be improved in Domo, as it would provide more clarity and help in giving insights to clients or customer business team requirements.
One of the areas where we've had frustrations with Domo is the aesthetics. The aesthetics are quite limited compared to other BI tools such as Tableau and Power BI.
From a cost perspective, if the number of connectors is lesser, then Fivetran is not the most cost-efficient option.
Fivetran could improve by adapting more for technical users and by providing more options for such users.
If Fivetran can build in more transformations, that would be really helpful in my opinion.
 

Setup Cost

Domo offers costly but comprehensive BI solutions with flexible pricing, valued for integrating multiple functions without extra infrastructure.
Fivetran's pricing is seen as costly and complex, with negotiable discounts, auto-renewal issues, and tiered benefits for large enterprises.
Domo's pricing is high compared to other BI tools, and it is costly.
For long-time users, it can become expensive, but the trade-off is access to the entire platform instead of licensing different components separately.
They quoted approximately one dollar per KB.
Our current yearly contract for Fivetran is approximately $70,000.
 

Valuable Features

Domo offers user-friendly tools for data transformation, visualization, and analytics, supporting scalability and diverse data source integration.
Fivetran offers seamless data integration with ease of use, robust connectors, real-time replication, and integration with dbt for efficiency.
App Studio is valuable because it allows all the customization we needed; we can decode it, with the view and grid which are all I need, drill-downs, and everything can be done the way I need it.
I have been using it for four years and have been able to extract the information I need from it.
The most valuable feature of Domo is the fact that you can connect multiple inputs and you don't have to have a data warehouse.
The most valuable feature of Fivetran is its built-in connectors for a wide range of data sources.
The real-time data replication is what I see best in the market where it reduces the overhead of customers needing to maintain the pipeline.
The ability to seamlessly integrate with a large variety of data sources is valuable.

Featured Reviews

Dave Ramos - PeerSpot reviewer
Has enabled me to integrate AI workflows and drive self-service analytics across organizations
There's room for improvement in their focus on enterprise clients. As a small business owner, there's nothing as powerful as Domo available for smaller organizations. I understand it's a business focus for them as they're looking to expand in that direction, but there's an opportunity to capture the SMB market by creating more capabilities. It's not necessarily about technical capabilities, but rather pricing that's geared towards the small business market. Capability-wise, it's very robust. If I had to stretch, I would suggest more integrations to other common tools, such as Zapier and operational tools like Mailchimp, where you can build and extend ETL in a no-code environment. While there are capabilities you can build from Domo's open APIs, having more native integrations in a no-code, low-code environment would be beneficial. Domo has many native integrations, but better tools for the SMB operational pipeline would be valuable.
Vigneswar Jeyaraj - PeerSpot reviewer
Real-time data replication and integration streamline processes and enhance productivity
The most valuable feature of Fivetran so far is the data replication. The real-time data replication is what I see best in the market where it reduces the overhead of customers needing to maintain the pipeline. Even when an error occurs, it automatically tries to solve the issue without manual interaction needed. The effectiveness of Fivetran's pre-built connectors in enhancing my customer's productivity is significant because everything is easily configurable. The documentation is very clear, so there's no difficulty in finding the necessary steps. Everything is pre-documented. The pre-built connectors that are available are excellent. Most functionalities are covered, and in most cases, it works according to expectations.
