Fastest way to get and transform data from anywhere into your warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
- Took close to no time to setup
- Tons of connectors with pretty much every data source imaginable
- Great support and sales team that is super quick to respond and help out

What do you dislike about the product?
- Price does shoot up really quickly
- Most connectors allow you to filter out fields and tables you don't need, but not all. Ends up leading to more data than you might want

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Fivetran primarily to get sales and payment data into our data warehouse from app stores and payment processors. It was a one click solution almost to get each source setup
Fantastic 0-60 Data Pipeline
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of working with the product. There is no complicated set up, heck we did not even need assistance from our infrastructure team. Fivetran is as close to point-and-click as a data pipeline can be.
What do you dislike about the product?
MAR, I hate MAR. I personally find it an extremely confusing way to price products. It also has us often making decisions based on cost versus value. I wish there was a simpler methodology.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The "EL" portion of the "ELT" pipeline. I cannot stress how wonderful it has been to completely eliminate the need of custom scripts to transport data between systems and our datalake.
great ETL tool
What do you like best about the product?
simplicity, easy to use , no coding required , ready to go in 1 minute, UI , Logs
What do you dislike about the product?
some integration is complex like generate / refresh tooen
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
solving ETL tool issue , we do not need to build in house ETL tool
It has been easy and great!
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Really simple and easy to get a data pipeline up.
What do you dislike about the product?
No good orchestration. You can't explicitly choose to run transformations in a certain sequence, or at a minute on the hour. Need more role types.

Data ingestion
Fivetran is helping us move our data stack to the modern age
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is a service where you can ensure all of your data gets where it needs to go, and is completely exhaustive. I've never had to worry about incomplete data sets.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fivetran is definitely built for the data literate. More of a feature than a critique, is that fivetran sends over absolutely EVERYTHING. It can add some time in sifting through data and documentation, but once it's set up it is set up for good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helped us combine data across many sources that we previously didn't have access to. Their sales team worked with us to solve our need, and built a plan that works for us now and will scale with us in the future.
great connector :)
What do you like best about the product?
usabilty for connect almost everything, at least we could find a connection to all tools we needed. That avoids a lot of developments in our side, and hire new resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
maybe the price is a bit high. but as I said before, that avoid a lots of development in our side, so maybe make sense to invest with you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it is very easy to connect with the rest of companies
It allows you to forget about database connection
What do you like best about the product?
Its simplicity and flexibility and how easy is to start using it
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I don't like or I miss.. just that is very expensive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Typeform, stripe and hubspot connection with redshift
Data Automation with Excellent Support
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran offers excellent support for their integrations, even integrations in their Beta phase. We implemented their Pipedrive connector, which was in Beta, and it was having issues. Fivetran's support team worked on it until they implemented a solution. The integrations run as expected every 15 minutes. Tighter intervals are available at a higher subsciption level. Data deduplicates automatically. You are able to add additional users at no additional cost, as pricing is consumption based. Shane, our rep, went above and beyond in the trial phase, giving us some extra trial time when the Pipedrive connector (which was still in Beta phase) was having issues. We initially trialed Fivetran with a Snowflake data warehouse, which we were also trialing, but fell short on Snowflake end. When we obtained our own database server and wanted to start back up with FiveTran, Shane was just as helpful as ever, even though our account had to be transferred to another rep.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some connectors can have a lot of tables that do not contain much information, however the billing is based on active rows so they can increase the cost. You can customize which tables sync though so cost can be controlled.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data from our SaaS systems loads into our database and is updated every 15 minutes, keeping our Tableau reports up to date and fully automated. We are also able to access data that was not available from the SaaS built-in data extracts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider your options but keep Fivetran at the top of your list unless another solution that has all of your integrations is cheaper
Good documentation, simple use and a lot of connectors but also the most expensive
What do you like best about the product?
The trial period was excellent since we were in constant contact with their team. Their team helped to solve issues and answer questions. They extended the trial period to 60 days for us also, which was nice.
They are the only tool we found which supports Apple AppStore Connect.
Their UI/UX and documentation for the connectors are excellent, and they have publicly available schemas.
They provide an API that can be used to trigger operations programmatically.
They provide historical sync for all connectors. Other tools we evaluated like Hevo Data only provide point-forward data ingestion but cannot retrieve older records.
Their AWS Lambda connector is elegant for solving custom data ingestion sources not supported natively.

What do you dislike about the product?
The price tag is at least twice as expensive as other tools we evaluated.
We cannot specify a primary key for the s3 connector, so we end up with duplicate rows when we load data from that source.
It would be nice to see support for real-time data ingestion (eg. load a file as soon as it lands in an s3 bucket)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to ingest data from multiple applications and data sources into our Data Warehouse in Snowflake. We are a small team of Data Engineers, and our data sources continue to grow, so we needed something that allowed us to move fast.
