- It is easy to use and the implementation is very straightforward

- Their support is very efficient and offers great insights

There are no dislikes, everything has been good so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does effectively pull large data sets.

Integrations with various platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Inability to schedule pulls, has to be every 24h. (Not necessarily for weekly / monthly reports so it seems excessive).

For CM360 it is difficult to pull 'Seat' or 'Network' as a dimension. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The upsides of Fivetran are that they have the provision to build pipelines for data extraction from heterogeneous systems that is seamless and user friendly. Fivetran consulting takes care of the integration and maintenance which removes the hassle of onsite maintenance. They have a good customer support team that can answer questions in a timely manner. We have daily loads so the frequency is pretty high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dependency on Fivetran is one of the key downsides as we have to think twice before we make any big integrations that we want to sync up. This is because it is a bit expensive for mid-scale companies like ours and to get locked up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pre-defined schema for a wide range of products for reporting.

Easy connectors so that data can be loaded with a click of a button Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can add some small space to apply transformation on top of the schema they provide so it will be a direct requirement load for dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The trial component and working out how to scale, start moving some sources over and growing. Option of terraform and APIs is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can't think of any, except that it is perhaps more pricey than other tools, but it is way more mature and easier to use, so can't fault it there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it supports moving data from a legacy environment. It easily connects to our mainframe database and moves incremental data. When we needed support, we are able to get on a call and solve the issue. I like the number of available connectors, should we decide to utilize more data sources. The recent change in licensing has allowed us to increase our data and reduce our spend. Overall I like this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our challenge is that we have a cloud hosted mainframe database, we had an issue using the proxy version of the sync tool, and had to switch to a reverse SSH tunnel that requires a bit more work to set up and maintain. After a few months of figuring it out, we are now stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Super facile à configurer et à démarrer. La plateforme est très conviviale pour établir les premières connexions et commencer à acheminer les données de toutes vos sources vers les destinations de votre choix. Ils ont de NOMBREUX connecteurs de source et de destination déjà configurés pour vous, économisant de nombreuses heures de développement en ingénierie des données.

Customer support could be faster and more proactive. There have been cases where connectors have stopped working or not syncing and there is no update on the status page or in incident reports. These are jobs that are critical to our operation and we received no news about incidents. We had to reactively reach out to support to ask why the syncs were not working.

Fivetran is super easy to setup and use. Mostly set and forget especially for known / existing connectors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some connector doesn't fail as elegantly such as showing existing credentials that isn't working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use. Their supported connectors are a cinch to set up and it's nearly effortless to maintain Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some services we use don't have supported connectors. I hope they continuously look at those using their custom SDK and consider creating official connectors for these use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
