Great Managed Solution with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran's ease of use is definitely its standout feature. The platform is simple to navigate and doesn't require much manual intervention, which is great for streamlining data workflows. I also love the variety of connectors available—most of the tools I need are supported, and it's clear that Fivetran is continuously expanding its offerings. The managed aspect of the service means I don't have to worry about maintenance, and that’s a huge plus for saving time and resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing can be a bit of a pain point, especially as data usage scales up. While the managed service is convenient, the cost feels like it could be more aligned with varying business sizes or budgets. Additionally, some connectors are missing certain features or options that would be helpful, and having more customization or advanced controls would improve the overall experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran solves the challenge of maintaining reliable, automated data pipelines without requiring constant monitoring or manual intervention. By managing the entire ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process, it allows my team to focus on data analysis rather than spending time on data integration. It streamlines data flow from multiple sources into our data warehouse, ensuring that we always have up-to-date data for reporting and decision-making. This has significantly reduced the time and effort spent on managing integrations and troubleshooting, ultimately improving our operational efficiency.

A really easy out of the box tool

Fivetran costs are quite high, especially with third party tools where you can't control the format of the data.

Fivetran is solving us the problem of having to manage a Data Engineer and solves us the need to manage separate self hosted pipeline to extract data from multiple sources.
The Best Ingestion Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Users can set up and manage data pipelines with minimal technical expertise.
Fivetran supports near real-time data syncing, which is crucial for making timely decisions based on the most current data.
It can handle large volumes of data and scale as your data needs grow. This scalability ensures that performance remains consistent even as data complexity and volume increase.

It automates the data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) process. T
Focus on your data, not how to move it
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran has provided us with a no code solution to extracting data into our databases and data warehouses, and has hugely simplified our data architecture and improved security. We have been able to easily integrate new systems using their out of the box connectors, allowing us to focus on the data transformation process instead of building out and monitoring the data pipelines, and it has become an integral part of our day to day operations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't support all of our systems yet, although the Fivetran team have done excellent work on narrowing this list over the years.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data from our systems into our data warehouse, without having to worry about building out and maintaining the pipeline.
if you are in data engineering, you gotta love this software
What do you like best about the product?
No doubt fivetran functionalities are great but their UI is one thing I love. We had to the cost planning and it was very easy for us to understand our growth, our usage and find the best annual value for the contract.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI is great but we saw so many discrepencies between our actual usage and what fivetran showed. IT took us a while for us to make them agree to that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have to pull our data from postgres and these are realtime transactions so volume is huge. On top of that we needed WAL replication. Fivetran helped us bring the data from postgres, excel sheet and salesforce into snowflake for our billing pipeline and ML.
Making ETL code Zero!
What do you like best about the product?
Just in few clicks ETL pipeline with CDC features are up and running. Bootstrapping a pipeline has become much easier after fivetran came into picture. Really resposnsive customer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some customisations around certain connectors are not very helpful, but the product is constantly evolving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No code ETL pipelines, easy to setup a pipeline and deliver the data to end users (Analysts)
Really good product, saving time with trust
What do you like best about the product?
We're savaing a lot of devlopment time using fivetran for loading data into snowflake

Fivetran make it easy to replicate our data sources into snowflake. We're saving a lot of time and improve the reliability of our data.
Expensive but reliable ingestion tool
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is easy to use, have a lot of integrations and very mature.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's pretty expensive and some connectors are very "verbose": automatically unnest JSON, cannot disabled some tables
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We collect data from multiple sources: internal (databases, spreadsheets) and external (Salesforce, Hubpost, Google Ads, ...).
Fivetran help us to extract all these sources and store them in our datawarehouse.
