We performed a comparison between Fivetran and Matillion ETL 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 product is very easy to use and very easy to configure."
"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 portal is very intuitive and easy to use."
"The product has some seamless connectors, which are readily available."
"SysTrack load is the best feature."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation."
"It is an incredibly user-friendly and intuitive tool, making the learning curve quite smooth"
"It's highly scalable. It takes upon itself the Redshift scalability, so it's very good."
"It has improved the costs of managing my customer’s data."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice. It has a good graphical user interface. You can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool. If there is good connectivity to a cloud database, such as Snowflake, and you can have a lot of Snowflake functionality in the tool."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its ease of use. If you have had some experience with other solutions, such as Snowflake, the use of this solution will be simple."
"It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
"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."
"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."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"The connections with SAP must be improved."
"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."
"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."
"I would like for them to incorporate additional transformations. A valuable aspect of the product is that it does inflight transformations and that could be expanded."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."
"It needs integration with more data sources."
"The current version is a bit more limited because it's on a virtual machine, and everything executes on that one virtual machine."
"To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms. This would be helpful."
"Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."
"Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS."
"Unlike Snowflake which automatically takes care of upgrading to the latest version and includes additional features, with Matillion ETL we need to do this ourselves."
"It can have multi-environment support. We should be able to deploy it in different environments. Its integration with SAP connection is not so nice, which should be improved. It can also support an on-prem database."
