We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Fivetran offers native connectivity with Sybase""SysTrack load is the best feature.""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.""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.""It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility.""The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues.""The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."

More Fivetran Pros →

"The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language""The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage.""I think Talend is one of the easiest tools for faster implementation compared to other tools.""The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand.""The availability of connectors is great.""Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc.""I like everything about this product, but the biggest thing is the ease of use.""We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."

Cons
"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.""An in-line data quality checking capability is missing""I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies.""The interface needs to be more user-friendly.""It should have a few more monitoring functionalities.""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 connections with SAP must be improved.""I would like for them to incorporate additional transformations. A valuable aspect of the product is that it does inflight transformations and that could be expanded."

More Fivetran Cons →

"The product must enhance the data quality.""I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced.""The documentation from version to version could be more accurate.""The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data.""I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself.""They lack in memory capacity.""We'd like to see more connectors it the future.""The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I don't have the exact information, but I know it is high, and it is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost for what we're doing. We're always open to doing things cheaper, so we might potentially implement a different solution."
  • "I've heard that the license for HVR is a bit costly compared to its competitors, but since it's reliable and efficient, I think the customer shouldn't be bothered about the cost."
  • "Fivetran is very expensive, and its database-driven pricing model is outdated."
  • "I can't give exact amounts because that's based on usage, but it's more expensive than some of its competitors."
  • "In the first year, we were given a very good discount. It was approximately 20,000 Euros per year. In the third year, we purchased credit for two years and the price was 33,000 Euros per year."
  • "I would say they're a little bit on the expensive side, and their contract process is not particularly good, but there is a lot of potential flexibility."
  • "The pricing model is okay and mid to large companies will not have an issue with it."
  • "The licensing costs are extremely high for the usage of somebody who has one GB or two GB of usage per day for real-time traffic. There are many other players in the market which are similarly priced or competitively priced. On average per month, it used to come around 12,000-15,000 USD, which is very high."

  • "License renewal is on a yearly basis."
  • "The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."
  • "The solution's pricing is very reasonable and half the cost of Informatica."
  • "The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a year."
  • "The price of the Talend Data Management Platform is reasonable. The other competing solutions are priced high. Gartner Magic Quadrant identified other solutions, such as Informatica, that are far more expensive."
  • "The price is on a per-user basis. It's a little more expensive than other tools. There aren't any additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
  • "The tool is cheap."
