Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), MuleSoft, Matillion and others in Cloud Data Integration."BMC Data Management improved our data recovery process by simplifying it."
"I have worked with DB2's great features in the last five years. The IDAA feature transformed the vision of warehousing, business analytics, and big data at my bank. Besides the mainframe, I saw that this solution was evolutionary. It gives real-time information."
"The ease of usability is the most valuable feature. It's very easy and quick to set up. It also has a central hub as opposed to GoldenGate which is one direct interface. For GoldenGate I would have needed three interfaces whereas with HVR I have a central interface that manages everything."
"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"You can manage all of your connectors individually, which gives you a very good ability to trace which one of your ETL processes is running and when."
"The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues."
"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."
"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."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"One area for improvement with this product could be in providing clearer guidance and tools for disaster recovery planning and execution."
"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it. It's not easy to see how it works."
"We experience cost issues because Fivetran is charged on a usage basis. When you reach a certain level, the tool should focus on reducing the costs. The solution is expensive when you are moving gigabytes and petabytes of data. It should also focus more on REST APIs and webhooks."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"The environment must be more development-friendly."
"It should have a few more monitoring functionalities."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"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."
"Some of the pain points we're looking at are trying to integrate some of the items in the Microsoft stack, so SharePoint and Excel, and then some of the newer Azure services."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
