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.""It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility.""The ease of usability is the most valuable feature. It's very easy and quick to set up. It also has a central hub as opposed to GoldenGate which is one direct interface. For GoldenGate I would have needed three interfaces whereas with HVR I have a central interface that manages everything.""The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues.""Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target.""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.""The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time.""The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."

"The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations.""It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput.""It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data.""The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors).""Easy integration with Salesforce""Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases.""Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried.""Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."

Cons
"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.""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 documentation is decent, but it's hard to find information online about Fivetran. For example, if you try to search for an error code, you won't find much information about it in forums.""The connections with SAP must be improved.""The solution is very expensive. I would like to have a better integration of the solution with Azure.""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.""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 →

"Its API management capabilities need improvement.""The initial setup can be a little bit difficult.""Sometimes additional connectors are needed.""Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs.""I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security.""In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations.""I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot.""There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "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'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."
  • "Fivetran is very expensive, and its database-driven pricing model is outdated."
  • "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."
  • "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 pricing model is okay and mid to large companies will not have an issue with it."
  • "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."

  • "Each business needs to determine if it is a mission critical aspect."
  • "The added bonus is that Jitterbit doesn't charge for any data volume/traffic."
  • "I do believe Jitterbit has one of the better pricing and licensing options out there compared to its competitors."
  • "Jitterbit was extremely cost effective for us compared to other options."
  • "The Jitterbit price is based upon endpoints. They also offer ERP connectors with their Enterprise edition"
  • "The solution's cost is mid-ranged compared to other vendors."
