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.

Allows for data to be moved across platforms and different data technologies

The most prominent feature of Upsolver is its function as an ETL tool, allowing data to be moved across platforms and different data technologies. Upsolver does this in a quick time, unlike traditional processes which are time-consuming. Additionally, it offers scalability for large volumes of data, with performance and ease of cloud-native integration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."

"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 ease of setting up the connectors and transformations is highly valuable."

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

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

"Its arrays are powerful enough to handle migrations even when the replication is happening in the background, without causing any trouble with the ongoing traffic."

"Fivetran is an easy-to-deploy solution for organizations looking at integrating a wide variety of data sources."

More Fivetran pros

"It was easy to use and set up, with a nearly no-code interface that relied mostly on drag-and-drop functionality."

"The most prominent feature of Upsolver is its function as an ETL tool, allowing data to be moved across platforms and different data technologies."

"Customer service is excellent, and I would rate it between eight point five to nine out of ten."

Cons

"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."

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

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

"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."

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

"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."

"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."

"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."

More Fivetran cons

"Upsolver excels in ETL and data aggregation, while ThoughtSpot is strong in natural language processing for querying datasets. Combining these tools can be very effective: Upsolver handles aggregation and ETL, and ThoughtSpot allows for natural language queries. There’s potential for highlighting these integrations in the future."

"On the stability side, I would rate it seven out of ten. Using multiple cloud providers and data engineering technologies creates complexity, and managing different plugins is not always easy, but they are working on it."

"There is room for improvement in query tuning."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is reasonably expensive"

"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."

"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 rate the pricing a six out of ten."

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

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

"I can't give exact amounts because that's based on usage, but it's more expensive than some of its competitors."
