What differentiates Fivetran from other similar products?

Fivetran has a wide breadth of connectors for most usecases. Great customer service and DBT integration is a big win.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Easy to use interface, can set up connectors within minutes! Scheduling and monitoring ingestion feeds is very easy.

What do you dislike most about this product?

We had a couple of issues with stability in one of the connectors Lock-in of scheduling within Fivetran. Some companies will have multiple ingestion partners for a variety of reasons, so having a scheduling interface that can allow for easy orchestration of Fivetran that can communicate via API with another ingestion provider, would allow for us to utilise their scheduling features in future!

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This is a great product, but it comes at a price. If you have highly active rows with high data volumes, you will incur a large bill for moving the data into your data platform

Pros

  • Respectful
  • Security Protects
  • Enables Productivity
  • Caring

Cons

  • Vendor's Interest First
  • Less Generous
  • Less Friendly Negotiation

The cost model. It's much cheaper and fair since it's calculated on a usage basis whereas other platforms charge a one off free which can be expensive considering the size of the data you're wanting to process.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The integrations and second to none, it will work with almost any SaaS.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The dashboard and management area could be made simpler/nicer to use but it isn't too bad how it is now.

Just go for it. There's no other product on the market that compete's in terms of price and functinality.
