We performed a comparison between Fivetran and Palantir Foundry 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,."
"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."
"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors."
"The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues."
"The product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."
"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"The data lineage is great."
"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
"Great features available in one tool."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"The environment must be more development-friendly."
"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."
"HVR Software's technical support could be improved. Whenever we log a case, the response that we get from the support is a bit delayed."
"The connections with SAP must be improved."
"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."
"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."
"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 data lineage was challenging. It's hard to track data from the sources as it moves through stages. Informatica EDC can easily capture and report it because it talks to the metadata. This is generated across those various staging points."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"The workflow could be improved."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
