Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."For us, Fivetran has been able to scale both in terms of the data we bring into our warehouse and the amount of data that we use as well."
"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"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 solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues."
"Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly."
"Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors."
"Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
"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."
"It should have a few more monitoring functionalities."
"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."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"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."
"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."
"The environment must be more development-friendly."
"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."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
