Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."
"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."
"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"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 product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."
"The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized."
"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 Mule Anypoint Platform is rapid development."
"It's easy to develop APIs."
"Customers can make use of Runtime Fabric, an RTF environment."
"The ability to define multi-tiered APIs and reuse them is a fantastic platform feature."
"The initial setup is quite easy because the solution has a good interface through which the configuration, mapping, and so on can be done."
"Overall, it is a pretty good product. It is also very scalable."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The solution's market place for different kinds of integration platforms is the most valuable feature."
"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."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"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."
"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 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."
"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."
"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."
"Its documentation needed a little bit of work to make it more usable. It is a platform that is used mainly by developers and other people for connecting systems. Its documentation was confusing in some areas and was not very helpful in other areas. I had to go to a consultant to get some work done, which ideally shouldn't be required."
"I would like to see some data integration and automation."
"Adding connectors for new upcoming applications would add extra value to this product."
"It doesn't work well when you try using it for the processing layer."
"The solution's pricing model is very strange, and it will be really expensive if you use APIs a lot."
"Price-wise, it is a good product since it is reasonably priced...Mule Anypoint Platform can get too complex for non-technical people."
"It should give better control over account management."
"Lacks intelligent management data and intelligent mappings."
