Fivetran Likes & Dislikes
It is very easy to establish new connectors without detailed knowledge of APIs. The site layout is user friendly, making it very easy to manage refresh rates and spot any issues. Customer support has also been very communicative and supportive.
Easy setup. Most data integrations to enterprise platforms. Great customer service.
What I like the most about Fivetran is that the pre-built connectors are easy to use and do not require technical knowledge. This allows us to work with non-tech stakeholders and set up connectors that they can manage through the Fivetran UI. The Fivetran SDK also gives more options to our technical users to set up custom connections without a lot of effort.
Connector refreshes can fail or become delayed and require trial and error to decipher the cause of the issue. There is also a limited choice of security measures for establishing webhooks. Some of our largest connectors have data missing, and though I have reported this as a feature request, as have others, there has been no response on the thread.
Usage-based pricing can easily blow up a budget and needs to be managed carefully. An update or backfill on a large billion-record source table can easily increase your MAR (Monthly Active Records) past your quota. This makes budget planning very difficult.
Cost for high volume data. There are cases where the volume is high and the schema drift is minimal so Fivetran would not be a cost effective solution for this case.

Exploring Low-Code Data Movement Platforms: First-hand Experience
The implementation team was very helpful as this was our first experience with a low-code data movement platform. We have had a decent learning curve in understanding/confirming that the data moved is what is expected. But both in connecting to a very old db2 system along with other troubleshooting opportunities, their service department has been good to work with. - Data Analyst50M-1B USDMiscellaneousReview Source
FiveTran is the Industry Leader for ingestion of Third Party datasources.
Every interaction with FiveTran has been first class. They were recommended as industry leads and they have never once failed to deliver on that promise. Implementation was easy and the product's UI is exceptional, making what would ordinarily be painful work processes seamless. I would recommend FiveTran to any organisation in a heartbeat.
