"Great Managed Solution with Room for Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Fivetran?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

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.

"Detailed review of Fivetran Connectors"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Fivetran?

We are at the beginning stages of setting up Fivetran as our ELT data stack tool. Fivetran has many useful features which could and we are hopeful would serve us well in our data strategy journey and implementation. Customer support seems to be great - you providing support/consulting during the first 90 days of account setup which is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

We are at the beginning stages of setting up Fivetran as our ELT data stack tool. We are currently facing some roadblocks regarding getting data out of Netsuite and Adaptive Insights/Workday Data sources as there is no a connector to those data sources currently set up in Fivetran. Would be great to see ease of integration to systems such as Netsuite, Workday, MyEvolv and proprietory systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Census is an absolute game changer"
5/5
What do you like best about Fivetran?

Census offers a highly efficient, low-maintenance platform for loading business-critical data into third-party systems. Previously, we relied on custom integrations that demanded significant maintenance and ongoing management to ensure performance and efficiency. With the Census platform, this burden is completely eliminated, allowing us to concentrate on the data itself rather than the upkeep of data pipelines and complex integrations. Impressively, our first data sync took only minutes to implement, a process that would typically require hours or even days with the assistance of a data engineer. Additionally, their support team is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, ensuring any issues or questions are promptly and effectively addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

I have yet found any issues working with the Census platform or their team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
