We performed a comparison between Fivetran and SAP Replication Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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 solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues."
"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."
"The product has some seamless connectors, which are readily available."
"The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized."
"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 compare feature is the most valuable piece of it."
"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."
"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."
"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"The solution is very expensive. I would like to have a better integration of the solution with Azure."
"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."
"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."
"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."
"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."
"HVR Software's technical support could be improved. Whenever we log a case, the response that we get from the support is a bit delayed."
"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 private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."
