Fivetran has been a valuable addition to our data tools arsenal
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetren makes data processes simple/quick. Our team likes how easy it is to start without any coding. There are many turn-key connectors available, which is great for businesses that we provide IT services for. Also, their netsuite connector helps us move data smoothly. The interface is quite user-friendly, so we can delegate tasks to junior data specialists within our tema and cut maintenance costs for our clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
A recurring concern is the pricing model, particularly the cost associated with automating and tracking historical data and data warehouse tables. The model based on monthly active rows can be confusing, making it challenging to forecast expenses, especially for our enterprise customers with vast amounts of data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Fivetran as one of the key elements of our client's data systems. It assists with ELT, offers out-of-the-box integrations for most of the common SaaS tools our clients use, and then the data goes straight to the warehouse. We also created three custom connectors ourselves. Everything works pretty smoothly and requires little attention for maintenance.

Seamless Data Integration Made Possible With Fivetran
What do you like best about the product?
The set up of the tool is very easy. The tool also has wide range of connectors; customer support is excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost is little on the higher end so I wouldn't recommend for early stage orgs. There is slight learning curve involved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The tool helps us pull data from multiples systesm i.e. Salesforce, HubSpot, Google AdWords. It also saves us a lot of time to integrate these systems and centralize the data at data warehouse level (Snowflake). The tools is literal plug and play.
Streamlined Data Integration for Enhanced Marketing Dashboards
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran seamlessly automates the data flow from our CDP (Segment) to our staging warehouse (Google Big Query), ensuring timely and efficient data integration for our marketing dashboards. The extensive range of connectors allows us to integrate various data sources, enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of our TOFU, MOFU, and BOFU marketing strategies.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Fivetran is efficient, it offers limited customization options, which can be a challenge when dealing with diverse data sources and complex transformations. In our case it was Intercom. The cost of using Fivetran may be a concern for smaller projects with a limited budget.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize Fivetran for transforming and validating data for our marketing dashboards. It plays a crucial role in providing insights into our conversion funnels and helping us optimize our marketing and customer success strategies.
The data flows from Segment to Google Big Query and then undergoes transformation in Fivetran, validation in dbtCloud, and finally moves to the production warehouse (Google BQ with dbt_metrics dataset). This streamlined process has enhanced our ability to monitor and analyze our Acquisition & Activation, Activation & Retention, and Referral & Revenue efforts, corresponding to TOFU, MOFU, and BOFU stages respectively.

Providing the best all-around Headless solution but at a high price
What do you like best about the product?
We used Fivetran with their Headless Powered by Fivetran solution and it's incredibly helpful, quick and easy to setup and it handles pretty much everything, user authentication included (which others don't).
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing based on number of rows makes it nearly impossible to be able to predict before-hand how much each connector is going to use and in addition to that ends up being quite expensive (compared to price per number of connectors as many other providers do)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralize marketing and business data from our Agency's clients in order to provide them with better insights and additional analysis in a quick and semi-automated way.
Fast and Easy integration from various Business tool to Data Lake/Warehouse
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy setup-and-forget system.
Row-based pricing.
Lots of integrations and destinations.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some bad surprises sometimes on number of rows synced.
Might not be Fivetran fault, but more about the source of data.
Yet the sudden spikes for e.g. Hubspot monthly is kinda a bad surprise sometimes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making all of our tools' (SFDC, Sheets, etc.) data queryable in a single place (Snowflake)
Very happy despite a rocky start
What do you like best about the product?
I found the Shopify connector to be the best of all the solutions I evaluated, and has worked really efficiently and smoothly since the implementation.The product notifications are also relevant, inisghtful and timeous while the portal interface is also clean, simple and easy to use. Overall, a really solid product at a great pricepoint for what I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had a bumpy start where the support provided during the trial phase was really not what I would have expected from a global company, however once the issues were resolved the solution has worked flawlessly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating customised reporting and analysis out of a platform like Shopify is not easy, which is something that Fivetran has allowed us to do in an efficient way. Simple, easy to use connection to move the data to an environment in which we have more control and flexibility is exactly what we wanted, and got!
Fivetran - Expensive but Excellent
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran makes it incredibly easy to get started with replicating data from various source systems into data warehouse. I couldn't believe how quick and easy it was to select the tables and columns I wanted and then with a few clicks get the data replicating.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it's a bit glitchy, but usually they work things out -- even having a technical support technician jump into the account (after being granted access) and troubleshooting. There were a couple times we had to do a full re-sync or set things back up, but overall it has been easy and straightforward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran helps us solve the problem of replicating data from our source systems (primarily MySQL RDS on AWS) into our data warehouse (AWS Redshift). They helped us avoid bringing a data engineer on board to handle this, at a significant cost savings.
Fivetran Review
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to setup connections and get up and running. The connectors are stable and the documentation is comprehensive and kept up to date.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing spend takes some getting used to. You can easily end up spending more than you need to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran has allowed me to centalise my data into a data warehouse for reporting.
It is necessary for our service infrastructure
What do you like best about the product?
It is very helpful that I can integrate multiple product with my Big Query.
Even though it is difficult to analyze the perfomance of the product, when Fivetran synced, I can analyze a lot of values via Big Query.

What do you dislike about the product?
It is a little bit annoying that a lot of data would be synced and the cost would be so high depend of the service to sync. So, it is required to tune the table.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fivetran resolving the problem with data extraction of the service I use. Without Fivetran, it is needed to create API request by myself just for exporting data.
Lots of connectors and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Our criteria were the availability of SaaS connectors and ease of use, because we only wanted one extraction tool for everything to keep complexity low. Fivetran had a few connectors that nobody else had and the setup was simple with UI and programmatic options.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing of note. Back in the day, the pricing was steep with heavy use, but that has gotten better since.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Syncing data from SaaS tools that our teams use to the data warehouse and analyse it together for richer insights not possible in those tools alone.
