"Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors.""Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target.""Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly.""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 most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized.""The solution is stable. We've never faced any stability issues.""The portal is very intuitive and easy to use.""Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."

"They're very competitive in terms of performance, which is a good selling point. It has very rich features. It provides a very rich feature set in the application.""The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage.""The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components.""The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component.""I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV.""I like everything about this product, but the biggest thing is the ease of use.""Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc.""I think Talend is one of the easiest tools for faster implementation compared to other tools."

Cons
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs.""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.""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 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.""The interface needs to be more user-friendly.""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.""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 environment must be more development-friendly."

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.""We'd like to see more connectors it the future.""I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself.""The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging.""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.""Performance and speed could be improved."

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."
