We performed a comparison between Fivetran and webMethods Integration Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"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 general data ingestion is valuable. It's used for a lot of data. It provides about 90% of the data we use in our data warehouse without needing data engineering."
"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"The product has some seamless connectors, which are readily available."
"The product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."
"The compare feature is the most valuable piece of it."
"The portal is very intuitive and easy to use."
"The stability is good."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The product is very stable."
"It has a good integration server, designer, and a very good API portal."
"The main assets are its flow language, debugging, and Broker. Flow language is far better and more flexible for debugging."
"The solution's ease-of-use is its most valuable feature, in which complex issues may be resolved."
"The MFT component of webMethods, for example, is easy to set up and convenient to use. It handles files very efficiently and it is easy to automate tasks with complex schedules. Monitoring is centralized to MWS which can be used to monitor other products as well (Trading Networks, BPM, MFT, etc.)"
"What I like best about webMethods Integration Server is its portfolio of connectors."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"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 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."
"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."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"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."
"Documentation needs tuning. There is a lot of dependency with SoftwareAG. Even with the documentation at hand, you can struggle to implement scenarios without SAG’s help. By contrast, IBM’s documentation is self-explanatory, in my opinion."
"Technical support is an area where they can improve."
"The learning curve is a little steep at first."
"This product has too many gaps. You find them after update installations. This should be covered by automatic testing."
"This solution could be improved by offering subscription based licensing."
"I would like to see the price improve."
"We need more dashboards and reporting engines that can provide detailed information for management. In short, we need better analytics."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
