Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 19, 2024

WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and Fivetran are products competing in the data integration field. Fivetran has an edge due to its ease of use and quick setup, which appeals to businesses looking for fast and straightforward data integration solutions.

Features: WSO2 Enterprise Integrator provides a wide range of integration capabilities, extensive customizability, and support for numerous connectors. It is ideal for enterprises seeking depth and flexibility. Fivetran focuses on automating data synchronization through a user-friendly interface and provides extensive connector support for real-time data movement, making it simpler for businesses to set up data pipelines quickly.

Room for Improvement: WSO2 Enterprise Integrator could improve its usability and reduce the complexity of its setup process. More user-friendly documentation and enhanced technical support would benefit its users. Fivetran could expand its customizability to offer more flexibility for complex integration scenarios. Additionally, it could enhance its transformation tools and offer more pricing flexibility for smaller enterprises.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Fivetran offers straightforward cloud-based deployment, making integration simple and minimizing the need for extensive technical expertise. Its customer service is quick and accessible, supported by detailed documentation. In contrast, WSO2 Enterprise Integrator offers both on-premise and cloud deployment, requiring more technical involvement. Its customer service is comprehensive but can be challenging for those without deep technical knowledge.

Pricing and ROI: WSO2 Enterprise Integrator follows an open-source model, which can mean lower initial costs for companies with technical resources, promising good long-term ROI. Fivetran offers a subscription model, providing predictable costs and aligning with businesses that need immediate integration without extensive resource allocation. Its lower entry barrier is balanced by the requirement for businesses to pay continuously over time.

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.

Decreases the development timeframe and costs

The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems. Often, customers decide to develop using open-source tools like Spring Boot if there aren't many connectors required to avoid increasing costs. They'll develop this way and then deploy using APIM, the bare minimum needed. It is mainly required for very complicated setups with many connectors. In the implementations I've seen, people often used open-source tools because there weren't many third-party systems involved—just their organization's own systems. From WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, I expect them to bring up more and more connectors in the future. That's the main expectation. Having more connectors in various areas will help us when discussing new requirements. I don't have any specific use case right now, so I can't name a particular connector. But, as new technologies emerge, the relevant connectors should be there for those. WSO2 Enterprise Integrator mainly helps with the integration part, which can be simplified only if you have relevant connectors for whatever you're doing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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 most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized."

"Fivetran offers native connectivity with Sybase"

"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."

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

"SysTrack load is the best feature."

More Fivetran pros

"The stability is excellent."

"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."

"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."

"The connectors have been the most impactful features for handling integrations. I can use these connectors when I need specific connectivity with a third party, like a core banking system in BFSI. I don't need to do all the development. I take the specific connector, put in the IP address and password, and it takes care of everything."

"It was mostly easy to set up the product."

"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."

"The learning curve for this solution is very good."

"The customer service executives are very responsive."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator pros

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."

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

"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."

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

"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."

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

"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."

More Fivetran cons

"The customization can be a bit difficult."

"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."

"The integration capabilities need to be improved."

"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."

"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."

"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"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."

"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."

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

"The solution is affordable."

"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 product is reasonably expensive"

More Fivetran pricing and cost advice

"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."

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

"It is a low-cost solution."

"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."

"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."

"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
