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.

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

"Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."

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

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

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

"Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly."

"Overall, I would rate Fivetran nine out of ten."

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."

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

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

Cons

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

"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."

"Fivetran could improve in the area of customization, especially in how they socialize their tools."

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

"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."

"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."

"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."

"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."

More Fivetran cons

"There is room for improvement in query tuning."

"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."

"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is reasonably expensive"

"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."

"The solution is affordable."

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

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

"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."

"Fivetran is very expensive, and its database-driven pricing model is outdated."
