Featured Reviews

Mediha Šiljić - PeerSpot reviewer
Built-in connectors offer extensive data source integration and time savings
Fivetran could improve by adapting more for technical users and by providing more options for such users. There should be more adaptability in terms of new features. If a specific feature is required, it should be integrated promptly. Improvement in existing connectors with new features is desirable. Enhancements around customer-focused product adaptation are also suggested.
Mohamed Moustafa - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good scalability, strong stability and seamless integration
The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive. It was a major plus. The integration process was smooth. Oracle's security is good and significantly better than that of other solutions I've encountered. Previously, we had separate data interfaces for 15 concrete mixing plants, requiring manual document creation in Oracle. Now, with integrated automation, production has become much easier and more efficient over the past three years.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Fivetran is an easy-to-deploy solution for organizations looking at integrating a wide variety of data sources."
"The portal is very intuitive and easy to use."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"Fivetran offers native connectivity with Sybase"
"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 most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"It is easy for users to get accustomed to the tool due to its gentle learning curve and clear error transparency."
"This solution can maintain a large volume of data and is flexible to what data it can handle. The performance is very good."
"The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive."
 

Cons

"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"In our case, we ultimately did not end up using Fivetran because we were able to do custom connects at a lower cost compared to Fivetran. From a cost perspective, if the number of connectors is lesser, then Fivetran is not the most cost-efficient option."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"The environment must be more development-friendly."
"The solution is very expensive. I would like to have a better integration of the solution with Azure."
"Fivetran is very expensive for data sources with a lot of rows, such as email data. I would like to see cheaper pricing for data sources like that."
"Fivetran could improve in the area of customization, especially in how they socialize their tools."
"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 solution could improve by adding more advanced features."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing."
 

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."
"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 solution is affordable."
"I can't give exact amounts because that's based on usage, but it's more expensive than some of its competitors."
"I rate the pricing a six out of ten."
"The product is reasonably expensive"
"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."
