We performed a comparison between Fivetran and Oracle GoldenGate based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"SysTrack load is the best feature."
"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."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"The most important feature of the solution is its ability to build data pipelines in less time."
"Fivetran offers native connectivity with Sybase"
"The compare feature is the most valuable piece of it."
"Fivetran can perform data migration incredibly fast, depending on the source and target."
"What I have found the most valuable about GoldenGate is that it does real-time and no-downtime migrations. Its migrations are fast. There are not many tools like it on the marketplace."
"With Oracle GoldenGate, you can easily sync the tables and put them into the ODS database."
"I am impressed with the tool's possibility of integrating different systems in a unified place."
"The product's microservice architecture is scalable."
"The live application feature is most valuable. The solution is stable. I rate it a seven out of ten."
"This solution provides us with real-time replication and it does not affect the performance of other operations, which is very important to us."
"The product is reliable for data integrity."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."
"It should have a few more monitoring functionalities."
"I would like Fivetran to implement additional resource monitoring and restriction policies."
"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."
"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"Fivetran should add more connectors because its competitors, like Airbyte, have more connectors."
"What needs improvement in Oracle GoldenGate is the support. Another feature that needs to be improved in the solution is its GUI. It would be useful for programmers or users to be able to work from the GUI, not just from the command line. Simplifying how Oracle GoldenGate is used would also make the solution better."
"It's stable but you have to know how to maintain it. That's why it's not 10 out of 10 for me. There are some bugs, there are some issues here and there. All of a sudden your process is not working and you have to figure out why, and sometimes it's not so clear."
"The front-end management isn't very good."
"GoldenGate is expensive. It's costly because this solution is unique in our market. The GoldenGate Cloud Service is cheaper than the on-premise solution."
"The problem with GoldenGate is it is very complex to use. You need heavyweight skills to use it."
"The product is not easy to use."
"The process of transforming the data between two different databases is inefficient and needs to be improved."
"Oracle GoldenGate can enhance its functionality by enabling the merging of multiple migrations into one."
