Intuitive, powerful and reliable
What do you like best about the product?
After trying a handful of other ETL/ELT tools, it is amazing how intuitive it is to connect sources to your warehouse and start streaming data. We've been able to sync data at a very low latency and with very low costs, thanks to the MAR pricing model.
What do you dislike about the product?
The difficulty of building custom connectors is an issue, as you'd need to have programming experience. Though I hear an easier option for creating custom connectors is on the horizon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Moving data out of SaaS apps and other internal data sources into a warehouse in order to transform, model, and blend it together in the least anount of time possible - and at a very low cost

Well built and easy to implement
What do you like best about the product?
The user experience for teams that are not specialized in data
What do you dislike about the product?
Mostly the pricing as Fivetran quickly becomes expensive for huge data sources like GA or Amplitude
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bringing data from a variety of sources into a single ware house
Easy to use for nontechnical people
What do you like best about the product?
Has a lot of integrated sources and destinations
What do you dislike about the product?
The connection to apple store is not the best, but I think it is from apple side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connect our marketing and sales data to our DWH.
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Lots of integrations, and it is really easy to set up.
I didn't even have a warehouse yet so Fivetran provides a managed BigQuery to start right away.

What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is a bit complicated to figure out fully.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran takes care of extracting/loading my data and makes sure it keeps running smoothly over time.
Decent tool that will save your analytic's department time
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to start, you don't need to talk to any sales reps, just create your account and start using this service. Free trial for each new connector – cool feature that gives you enough time to understand whatever everything works as you planned or not.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little bit pricey. The most disturbing thing is that you can't optimise data usage for some of the connectors, it's just impossible to 'unclick' it in the interface, so the data will be synced anyway which will increase your usage and your overall monthly price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to set up ETL quickly without coding, just by clicking. It's definitely a huge time saver for me.
Positive, easy-to-use, non-technical interface for ETL process
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran composes of a wide range of data connectors with very clear and good documentation and instructions for each of them.
I have used their connector to transfer data from Salesforce to Azure SQL database. I can easily follow their instructions to set up their connection without any knowledge in their underlying applications and APIs.
They also offer decent user support.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are some data connectors that are missing and their product timeline is not respected. For example, I asked for a data connector on Microsoft Dynamics 365 in Q2 this year. At that time they told me that it is on their roadmap for Q3 2022. However the connector is still not ready today.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They are working on the Microsoft Dynamics 365 data connector.
It has been very difficult to connect this application to any database as Microsoft offers a relatively closed system in data interface.
Fivetran told me that the connector will be ready in Q1 2023

Easy integration and significant shortens time to market
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran was exceptionally easy to integrate into our tech stack and makes data centralization a breeze. We needed to quickly provide data for business side reporting into Redshift and using Fivetran significantly reduced our time to market by weeks. Highly recommend!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike really - just needed to learn that deletes in the DB are soft deletes in connected datasources. This is really a very solid tool to have especially when a system has many sources of data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business reporting and centralization of data into a warehouse from multiple sources - reports that took weeks to run, now just take hours post Fivetran integration.
Most Comprehensive ELT tool
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of adding connectors and start schedules is fantastic. The pricing model is easier to understand and reasonable. Dashboards to monitor MAR usage across connectors and accounts help us keep the bills in check. The in-built SQL editor is my most used component.
What do you dislike about the product?
The built-in SQL editor is not the best (small window to code), perhaps because you are deprecating it in 2023.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating data from multiple sources helps us to have a consolidated view.
My experience has been seamless so far
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setup. Lots of connector options. Interaction with Fivetran staff has been very pleasant.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I can really think of. I don't understand the benefit of doing transformations through Fivetran instead of by myself in my connector.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran is helping us better to understand a product of ours with minimal technical resources. In the future it will be easy to replicate what we have for other products of ours.
Good experience
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran helps you centralize data from different places in one data warehouse. The whole concept is strong. The setup is extremely easy, and the support is helpful as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fivetran works with connectors. The principle is easy and strong, but the connector needs to be available. If the connector is not available, you're simply out of luck. You can submit an idea, but you have to wait until they have time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had different data sources in different places, and combining those to get one version of the truth proved to be challenging. Via Fivetran this was very easy to accomplish. Also, once setup you don't have to look back.
