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.

General Manager at Quit cement

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

"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."

"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."

"The portal is very intuitive and easy to use."

"The simplicity and scalability are the strongest features of Fivetran."

"The compare feature is the most valuable piece of it."

"Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors."

"It is easy for users to get accustomed to the tool due to its gentle learning curve and clear error transparency."

"The user interface is mostly UI-based, eliminating the need for a lot of coding."

More Fivetran pros

"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

"The biggest area for improvement is in customization, particularly in how Fivetran socializes its tools."

"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."

"Their pricing has increased over the years, so it's not seen as an advantage anymore."

"The solution is very expensive. I would like to have a better integration of the solution with Azure."

"This solution needs to improve its real-time data and transformation availability."

"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."

"An in-line data quality checking capability is missing"

"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."

More Fivetran cons

"There is room for improvement in the pricing."

"The solution could improve by adding more advanced features."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is affordable."

"I rate the pricing a six out of ten."

"When you have a lot of workflows and complex use cases, pricing goes down as you use it more."

"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."

"The product is reasonably expensive"

"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."
