We performed a comparison between Fivetran and Oracle GoldenGate based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There's the general feature of the platform where it just makes it very easy to integrate different things, but I would say a specific difference is their integration of DBT,."
"Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly."
"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"For us, Fivetran has been able to scale both in terms of the data we bring into our warehouse and the amount of data that we use as well."
"The general data ingestion is valuable. It's used for a lot of data. It provides about 90% of the data we use in our data warehouse without needing data engineering."
"SysTrack load is the best feature."
"The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized."
"Its arrays are powerful enough to handle migrations even when the replication is happening in the background, without causing any trouble with the ongoing traffic."
"What I have found the most valuable about GoldenGate is that it does real-time and no-downtime migrations. Its migrations are fast. There are not many tools like it on the marketplace."
"We can replicate data across different data centers and different technologies."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
"The product is reliable for data integrity."
"The CDC feature is interesting."
"The replication of the data table is one of the best features."
"This solution provides us with real-time replication and it does not affect the performance of other operations, which is very important to us."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"There was a random change to our contract in a unilateral manner after the first year. The overall cost of using Fivetran was then unclear and this is the reason I would not recommend this solution."
"The environment must be more development-friendly."
"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."
"The customization could improve because Fivetran gives more thought to people who don't want to manage analytics workflows rather than engineers who want to be able to customize pipelines more thoroughly."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"Fivetran is very expensive for data sources with a lot of rows, such as email data. I would like to see cheaper pricing for data sources like that."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"What needs improvement in Oracle GoldenGate is the support. Another feature that needs to be improved in the solution is its GUI. It would be useful for programmers or users to be able to work from the GUI, not just from the command line. Simplifying how Oracle GoldenGate is used would also make the solution better."
"Troubleshooting issues is not always the easiest. It should be easier to troubleshoot. Their support can also be improved. They don't read your problem statement and waste a lot of time. GoldenGate for big data is actually a separate license. It is sort of a separate product, but it might fall underneath your GoldenGate category. If we're talking about big data, its interaction with big data sources is poorly documented."
"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."
"You cannot put everything in Golden Gate for the license and large models."
"It should be easier to integrate this solution with non-Oracle databases, including cloud-based solutions hosted on Azure."
"The solution's performance needs improvement."
"Oracle GoldenGate's installation is not user-friendly, we had to read a lot of documentation for the setup and configuration."
"The solution costs a lot."
