Rivery improves productivity and efficiency, reducing manual work and cutting costs by enabling independent project management with fewer employees.
Sentiment score
6.4
Stitch boosts efficiency by saving time and costs, enhancing focus on data analysis despite mixed financial ROI reports.
It saved my team time and really reduced manual work, so overall, it improved efficiency.
software tester at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
By using Snowflake and Rivery, I was able to set up and complete project goals myself without the necessity to employ additional data engineers or DevOps.
Researcher at a educational organization with 11-50 employees
That cut down our pipeline maintenance and integration overhead by eighty to ninety percent, freeing us up to focus entirely on actual data analysis and building user-facing features.
Developer at a educational organization with 51-200 employees
Previously it took me about a month to a month and a half to have a prototype of roughly five to ten screens. Now I can do it in about two to three days.
UX Designer at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees
We've got a project at the moment that we estimated the integration was going to be around $200,000 to $300,000, and we've been able to achieve the integration for less than a tenth of that, doing it in-house using Stitch.

Manager, Business Intelligence at WalkMe - the Enterprise-Class Online Guidance and Engagement platform.
The customer support for Rivery is excellent.
Manager, Application at a non-profit with 1,001-5,000 employees
The best skill set they've got is that they know when the issue is outside of their knowledge, and they escalate really quickly so that we get to the right people when we need them.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
The platform actually has a very clear interface and a very good user experience.
UX Designer at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.0
Rivery scales effectively, integrating diverse data sources, supporting increased use, and connecting to databases and tools like Snowflake and Tableau.
Sentiment score
5.2
Stitch is scalable and user-friendly, but concerns exist about complexity and third-party connections for heavy applications and UI.
It has handled growing data volumes and additional pipelines without major issues.
software tester at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
The focus is on the ability to connect to different sources and to put all the data together.
Data Analyst at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
I would advise that you should not use Stitch if you are going to build a big number of screens or a heavy UI application with complex designs because it is not ready for that kind of work.
Software Engineer trainee at Lng-consultancy
We just spin up a new server and add it into a cluster, and then it pretty much manages the load balancing across all the servers in the cluster.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
If you are using the cloud version, then definitely it is scalable for sure.
Senior Manager at pibythree

Room For Improvement

Rivery needs better dependency analysis, user-friendly interface, AI integration, and competitive pricing with improved analytics and visualization.
Stitch users seek improved support, customization, integration, error handling, design features, pricing, and AI capabilities for better usability.
As an end-to-end solution for ETL with Snowflake, Rivery has proven to be reliable and efficient in my day-to-day work.
software tester at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Agentic AI with open source tools can be used to build all configurations automatically for pipelines.
Researcher at a educational organization with 11-50 employees
One feature that stood out in Informatica was the ability to see data flowing through each transformation step while debugging, which I felt was missing in Rivery.

Setup Cost

Rivery's pricing is competitive but can be steep for small businesses, with complex integrations increasing costs significantly.
Stitch is cost-effective for small teams but seen as pricey with large data, complicated by Talend merger licensing.
I found myself asking my stakeholder to make it only five times a day because it was really expensive.
Manager, Application at a non-profit with 1,001-5,000 employees
I found the pricing and licensing to be fair and competitive compared to other solutions I have seen.
Manager, Business Intelligence at WalkMe - the Enterprise-Class Online Guidance and Engagement platform.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is pretty easy, pretty straightforward, and the cheapest of them all.
head of data at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
The cost of the seats is actually cheaper by the amount of value that you're adding to the business.
Enterprise Architect at Waikato Regional Council
If you are using any ETL tool, they are too expensive.
Senior Manager at pibythree
 

Valuable Features

Rivery excels in seamless integration, user-friendly design, and efficient data processing, appealing to various technical skill levels.
Stitch streamlines data management with automation, vast integrations, real-time alerts, and intuitive tools enhancing workflows and decision-making.
Rivery saved time and money because everything was handled in one place by only one or two data people instead of using the resources of a development team, which is great, and all the knowledge is handled in one team.
Manager, Application at a non-profit with 1,001-5,000 employees
The main benefit Rivery brought to my organization was the time we were able to save on development.
Researcher at a educational organization with 11-50 employees
Rivery has positively impacted my organization by reducing the need for a big team of data engineers and speeding up the work when we need to connect to a new data source; this can happen really fast.
Manager, Business Intelligence at WalkMe - the Enterprise-Class Online Guidance and Engagement platform.
The image to HTML conversion helps me in my projects because it allows you to acquire professional designs without starting from scratch.
software developer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
We take one week of time to design an application, but now we can design that application within two days, which is 16 hours.
UX lead at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
We can easily move and do time-to-market for a new pipeline and new integration, positively impacting our organization.

Training has boosted custom ETL scripting and now debugging complex incremental loads needs work
The best feature Rivery offers is the ability to build custom or user-defined functions. You can even develop Python scripts to perform transformations on your data frames. This flexibility allows you to implement custom requirements, making Rivery more versatile than relying solely on in-built functions. Regarding features such as the interface, scheduling, or connectors, I found that as of 2022 when I last used it, the monitoring was good, although the debugging process for custom scripts was somewhat challenging. If we encountered issues with custom-built scripts, debugging was difficult since it used to send standard errors rather than specific ones. From what I recall, monitoring worked well, and we could connect to multiple relational and other sources, which was advantageous. A few of my colleagues and I were able to earn certifications on Rivery, which motivated us, even though we could not pursue or implement Rivery project for clients. The learning experience was very valuable as we had around seven or eight resources participating in those trainings, and they were all excited to learn about this new tool for us at the time.

Data team has transformed diverse environmental streams and now delivers real-time insights
The best thing that we've seen coming out of Stitch is the Talend and Qlik relationship becoming more of a single entity rather than two entities. A couple of years ago there was a distinction between Stitch and Qlik. The biggest challenge when we were dealing with both was that we felt like we were dealing with two different companies. They are quickly merging the two different entities into a single one, and by around the end of this year, they're planning to basically consolidate everything. Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together. It's not quite exactly one solution. That's probably the biggest negative at the moment. Each month we're seeing improvements in the cloud platform, and they're coming out with capabilities that we haven't even thought about that are going to make our lives easier. Probably the biggest negative they have is they're doing so much good stuff, but we don't know about it. It just appears and then we figure it out ourselves, but the communication of changes could be improved. However, the positives are that they're changing so much at the moment.
