Find out in this report how the two Data Replication solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"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,."
"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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized."
"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable feature."
"The portal is very intuitive and easy to use."
"We are able to easily do Azure backups and restores."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"This mature product is the leader in the backup industry with unique features and capabilities for users with advanced backup needs."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the snapshot and clone capabilities."
"It centralizes your data."
"This is a very mature product that does exactly what it needs to in taking temporary pictures of data states."
"NetApp Snapshot's most valuable features are the snapshot capabilities, you can take snaps of shared directories, files, and VMs."
"The replication and SV protocol features are valuable."
"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."
"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."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"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."
"It should have a few more monitoring functionalities."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"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."

"If your data is more dynamic and changes frequently, you need more granular retention levels and need to save it for a longer duration, then this becomes a real challenge."
"The next release should include developments on the step center for purpose or bandwidth."
"NetApp Snapshot's price could improve to allow them to capture more market shares."
"The solution could include more databases and make it accessible to the DBAs. The automation process should be run in a way where it could be run from the database itself."
"I would like to see cloud features added to the next release of this solution."
"I would like some sort of notification that lets me know when a snapshot is done or not done."
"The company could update their products more regularly."
