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.

Real-time integration and seamless data synchronization enhance user experience

The stability of Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service is one of its most useful features, although its performance is not too steady. It excels with bidirectional data synchronization. It supports diverse databases and platforms. We link the ODS with numerous source systems, including Oracle, Tarek Data, and Microsoft, with no integration issues. The solution caters to enterprise needs, fitting any organizational requirement, apart from data security issues common to cloud solutions. The cloud data security challenge is notable, necessitating solutions such as private cloud offerings to allay security concerns.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."

"The general data ingestion is valuable. It's used for a lot of data. It provides about 90% of the data we use in our data warehouse without needing data engineering."

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

"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."

"SysTrack load is the best feature."

"There's the general feature of the platform where it just makes it very easy to integrate different things, but I would say a specific difference is their integration of DBT,."

"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."

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

More Fivetran pros

"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service is valued for its ability to replicate data in real-time, offering significant benefits from a data perspective."

"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."

"It provides a good response for external microservices applications."

"This has significantly eased the process of migration from on-premise to cloud. Instead of configuring everything from the ground up, the Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service has made it seamless to build and render databases in cloud."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"We are heavily involved with GitHub for managing repositories, automatic deployments, and inner source projects."

"The stability of Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service is one of its most useful features, although its performance is not too steady; it excels with bidirectional data synchronization and supports diverse databases and platforms."

"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."

More Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service pros

Cons

"The environment must be more development-friendly."

"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."

"There is not a lot of options to customize the pipeline, and the cost is high."

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

"We use a separate tool for "reverse ETL", which is the opposite of what Fivetran does; it pushes data from your data warehouse back out to business applications. If Fivetran pulls data from those same applications, they should also enable users to push it back. I would love to do both ETL and reverse ETL in the same tool."

"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."

"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 connections with SAP must be improved."

More Fivetran cons

"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."

"Oracle is always adding new features. I can't think of anything that's urgent currently."

"I am not very happy with Oracle Support. Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests."

"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."

"Over the past four to five years, I have experienced many problems when opening support requests."

"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."

"Support could be improved. They lack knowledge."

"With Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, we have usual cloud solution issues such as privacy and data security."

More Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"The pricing model is okay and mid to large companies will not have an issue with it."

"Fivetran is very expensive, and its database-driven pricing model is outdated."

"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."

"The solution is affordable."

"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."

"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 product is reasonably expensive"

More Fivetran pricing and cost advice

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
