Find out in this report how the two Data Replication solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."
"The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues."
"Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors."
"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized."
"Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly."
"The product has some seamless connectors, which are readily available."
"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"This mature product is the leader in the backup industry with unique features and capabilities for users with advanced backup needs."
"SnapMirror and Snapshot are both very reliable products."
"It doesn't occupy a lot of space and is very easy to use once you schedule the snapshots."
"The most valuable features of NetApp Snapshot are the integration with other vendors and customization."
"The most important feature to us is creating live snapshots without impacting user access to the file. NetApp's processes are transparent to users and allow us to create point-in-time snapshots, enabling us to replicate that data into the cloud in real time without any impact."
"We are able to easily do Azure backups and restores."
"It is a very scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"You never have to worry about protecting your virtual machines."
"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."
"The customization could improve because Fivetran gives more thought to people who don't want to manage analytics workflows rather than engineers who want to be able to customize pipelines more thoroughly."
"The documentation can be laid out better to make it easier to find things, and I really wish there was built-in support for changing passwords. Some features don't work as advertised for the platform/repository database, and HVR is not always the fastest at getting results."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"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."
"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."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."
"The price could be a bit lower."
"The solution could include more databases and make it accessible to the DBAs. The automation process should be run in a way where it could be run from the database itself."
"The price could be improved a little bit."
"The next release should include developments on the step center for purpose or bandwidth."
"The dashboards are in need of improvement."
"Although support is good, the global support is lacking depending on location."
"NetApp needs to take a look at their pricing in comparison to the competition and make the appropriate change to attract more customers and gain in market share."
"The company could update their products more regularly."
