Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"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 most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."
"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 product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."
"The compare feature is the most valuable piece of it."
"Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors."
"Performance and flexibility-wise, they're very user-friendly."
"The technical support services are good."
"The MDM solution is capable of integrating multiple systems, so it helped us to solve the purpose of centralizing the depository as well as the standardization of mass data. It takes away all the ambiguity around data integrity issues or all the process challenges which happen when every stage of a process uses a different source as master data."
"The documentation is decent, but it's hard to find information online about Fivetran. For example, if you try to search for an error code, you won't find much information about it in forums."
"It should have a few more monitoring functionalities."
"The documentation can be laid out better to make it easier to find things, and I really wish there was built-in support for changing passwords. Some features don't work as advertised for the platform/repository database, and HVR is not always the fastest at getting results."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"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."
"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."
"We use a separate tool for "reverse ETL", which is the opposite of what Fivetran does; it pushes data from your data warehouse back out to business applications. If Fivetran pulls data from those same applications, they should also enable users to push it back. I would love to do both ETL and reverse ETL in the same tool."
"The initial setup was not very straightforward. Not complex, but not very simple either."
"When it comes to UI look and feel and user experience, Informatica is not as good as other solutions."
"They could provide more robust performance for data integration processes. It would help in improving the data quality more efficiently."
