"FiveTran enabled and empowered us"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Fivetran?

Ease of use and breadth of available connectors. We can onboard virtually any new data source used by our business within minutes and within a few hours begin writing code to flow that data into our warehouse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

It would be nice if the scheduling knobs and dials were more granular and if there were more user friendly visibility into the progress / errors of connectors Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fivetran:

It's very easy to setup a new connector and do an initial sync and see if it gives you the data you need. Just try it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fivetran solving and how is that benefiting you?

We switched to Fivetran because our zuora data wasn't being synced reliably by our previous vendor so reliability of synching is definitely at the top of the list. Also, relying on FiveTran to manage the API work and transmission of data to RedShift frees up our time to focus just on the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing product that makes data syncing effortless"

5/5

What do you like best about Fivetran?

Fivetran excels at doing one thing incredibly well: reliably syncing data from multiple SaaS tools into a central data warehouse like BigQuery. The setup is remarkably fast—most connectors are essentially plug-and-play, with minimal configuration. I especially appreciate the wide connector library, automatic schema management, and robust alerting system. For a small team without a full-time data engineer, it’s a game-changer. It eliminates a ton of manual work and lets us focus on deriving insights rather than wrangling APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

Pricing can be a barrier for early-stage startups or companies with unpredictable data volumes. Since Fivetran charges based on monthly active rows (MAR), costs can spike unexpectedly as your data grows—even if you’re not increasing the number of sources. Additionally, some niche connectors are still in beta or lack full functionality, and the granularity of scheduling could be more flexible (e.g., custom cron instead of fixed intervals). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fivetran solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fivetran helps us eliminate the manual, error-prone process of building and maintaining custom data pipelines. As a consultancy supporting startups and SMEs, we often deal with a wide variety of SaaS tools—HubSpot, Google Ads, Stripe, Facebook Ads, and more. Fivetran makes it easy to centralise this fragmented data into BigQuery with minimal effort, enabling us to deliver faster, more reliable insights for our clients. It also removes the need for ongoing connector maintenance, which is a massive time-saver for lean teams. The automatic schema updates and built-in monitoring reduce data downtime and ensure our dashboards and reports stay up-to-date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Fivetran?

Fivetran makes data integration incredibly easy. Setting up connectors takes only minutes, and the automated pipelines handle schema changes seamlessly. The sync process is fast and reliable, and the documentation and UI make it straightforward to monitor jobs.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

There’s not much to dislike given the overall value. Pricing can be higher than some alternatives, especially for smaller data volumes, but the ease of setup, speed, and excellent support make it worthwhile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fivetran solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fivetran eliminates the need to build and maintain custom data pipelines. It automatically replicates data from numerous sources into our data warehouse, which allows our analysts to focus on generating insights instead of managing integrations. The platform keeps pace with schema changes and ensures data is synced quickly and accurately, saving us significant engineering time and enabling more timely reporting.

We have around 50 different places company wide from where we need to sync data into warehouse on an hourly basis.Fivetran does a great job by timely syncing without delay.

What do you like best about Fivetran?

I appreciate Fivetran's ease of setup and usage, which made integrating our systems straightforward. Its reliability and secure platform ensure smooth data synchronization across multiple databases.

"An amazing no-code out of the box data integration solution"

5/5

What do you like best about Fivetran?

I have been using Fivetran for over a year now and I love how easy it is to simply plug and play when it comes to connecting to almost any external SaaS platforms out there, saving us precious business time and resources.

I heavily rely on Fivertran to collect data from offline spreadsheets scattered across the business into one place by using the out of the box Sharepoint connector. Once set up, there is zero effort from the user to automate the entire data pipeline and easily channel the data into one place for analysis, saving me hours of VB coding!

Also love the fact that Fivetran guys are constantly adding newer connectors that I keep an eye on to try these out (business case depending) .

Overall, an extremely no-code solution for anyone who wants to automate their data pipeline with minimum effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

Nothing to dislike apart from the wait to have newer connectors added to their existing collection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fivetran solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fivetran is saving me hours of VB coding when extracting data from excel and google spreadsheets from SharePoint sites across the business. The SharePoint connector is allowing me to spend more time analyzing the data and delivering the insights to the end users rather than to wrestle with the spreadsheets and get that data into one place.

More so I have started using a few other out of the box connectors recently such as Google Ads, Reddit and Wrike, which is amazing as its giving me data that otherwise would be very difficult to API into. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Product -- Slow to pivot"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Fivetran?

We have a wide variety of source systems we need to extract data from. For 90+% of these FiveTran does the trick. Setup is easy and there isn't much to manage once set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fivetran?

There is a known issue with Business Central connectors. We have been working with them for months trying to get it fixed or even get a timeline and we continue to be flying blind. This is pretty critical to our business and I'm sure with others using Microsoft Business Central so I wish they would be more communicative about this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
