Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized.""Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication.""Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors.""For us, Fivetran has been able to scale both in terms of the data we bring into our warehouse and the amount of data that we use as well.""The portal is very intuitive and easy to use.""The product has some seamless connectors, which are readily available.""The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues.""You can manage all of your connectors individually, which gives you a very good ability to trace which one of your ETL processes is running and when."

"The prebuilt connectors have saved our customers a lot of time and money.""The product is easy to use. You don't need programming skills to use it.""The advantage of using MuleSoft as part as the Salesforce ecosystem is that anything new they build is guaranteed to work with the new features that are coming from the other side."

Cons
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies.""Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors.""The documentation is decent, but it's hard to find information online about Fivetran. For example, if you try to search for an error code, you won't find much information about it in forums.""Some of the pain points we're looking at are trying to integrate some of the items in the Microsoft stack, so SharePoint and Excel, and then some of the newer Azure services.""The environment must be more development-friendly.""We experience cost issues because Fivetran is charged on a usage basis. When you reach a certain level, the tool should focus on reducing the costs. The solution is expensive when you are moving gigabytes and petabytes of data. It should also focus more on REST APIs and webhooks.""There was a random change to our contract in a unilateral manner after the first year. The overall cost of using Fivetran was then unclear and this is the reason I would not recommend this solution.""I would like for them to incorporate additional transformations. A valuable aspect of the product is that it does inflight transformations and that could be expanded."

"This solution could be improved by offering more integrations with other platforms.""MuleSoft Composer needs to improve its interface and scalability.""The technical support team's response time must be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I don't have the exact information, but I know it is high, and it is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost for what we're doing. We're always open to doing things cheaper, so we might potentially implement a different solution."
  • "I've heard that the license for HVR is a bit costly compared to its competitors, but since it's reliable and efficient, I think the customer shouldn't be bothered about the cost."
  • "Fivetran is very expensive, and its database-driven pricing model is outdated."
  • "I can't give exact amounts because that's based on usage, but it's more expensive than some of its competitors."
  • "In the first year, we were given a very good discount. It was approximately 20,000 Euros per year. In the third year, we purchased credit for two years and the price was 33,000 Euros per year."
  • "I would say they're a little bit on the expensive side, and their contract process is not particularly good, but there is a lot of potential flexibility."
  • "The pricing model is okay and mid to large companies will not have an issue with it."
  • "The licensing costs are extremely high for the usage of somebody who has one GB or two GB of usage per day for real-time traffic. There are many other players in the market which are similarly priced or competitively priced. On average per month, it used to come around 12,000-15,000 USD, which is very high."
  • More Fivetran Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Salesforce is licensed by user and by products and so pricing depending on what your requirements are."
  • "MuleSoft Composer is affordable, and I rate its pricing a five to six out of ten."
  • "The tool is a bit expensive."
