Airbyte has made our data integration workflow a lot simpler. The open-source nature means we're not locked into a vendor, and the range of pre-built connectors saved us a ton of engineering time we would've otherwise spent building custom pipelines. The Connector Builder is especially useful when we needed a source that wasn't already in their catalog and we could get something working without writing much code at all. Setup was smooth, and their documentation is clear enough that we rarely needed to reach out to support. Would recommend to any team looking for a flexible, scalable ELT solution.

I actually use the MCP Gateway of Airbyte, which is a very valuable thing. It gives me secure access to hundreds of daily apps with one MCP, which I find really useful. I also like the ability to connect once and use it anywhere with any tool. The MCP Gateway is something I like most as it allows me to connect more tools at once. Additionally, I find Airbyte easy to set up because the docs are well-documented.

I like using Airbyte as our main CDC tool to connect our production databases to the company’s main DWH. We also use it for batch files, Google Sheets, and APIs, which lets us trigger materializations with dbt. Overall, it helps us build end-to-end pipelines and keep a full picture of the process. I also appreciate the idea that we can quickly modify connectors when needed. The source code is easy to navigate and adapt to our needs, which makes it easier to share data between processes and to plug and play. It’s also helpful that, if something fails, we can send alerts to Slack via an incorporated webhook. Deploying it locally was straightforward. We still need to investigate how user authentication works, so not everyone is able to change connections and so on.
