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 compare feature is the most valuable piece of it."
"The product has some seamless connectors, which are readily available."
"There's the general feature of the platform where it just makes it very easy to integrate different things, but I would say a specific difference is their integration of DBT,."
"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 is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly."
"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility."
"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."
"I like that the product transforms data and provides real-time applications."
"The product's initial setup phase was very simple."
"The product's microservice architecture is scalable."
"The solution is useful for data transformation."
"GoldenGate can connect and collect data from multiple sources, such as SQL Server."
"I am impressed with the tool's possibility of integrating different systems in a unified place."
"One feature that stands out for me is the data center capability."
"It's very simple to configure, it's very simple to implement. In addition, the ability it has to capture data and transmit it with incredible speed is better than any of the product out there. It's extremely powerful."
"More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals."
"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."
"The environment must be more development-friendly."
"This solution needs to improve its real-time data and transformation availability."
"The connections with SAP must be improved."
"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."
"Fivetran would be improved by adding the ability to integrate the data from third-party APIs."
"The documentation is decent, but it's hard to find information online about Fivetran. For example, if you try to search for an error code, you won't find much information about it in forums."
"Oracle GoldenGate could improve the price."
"The process of transforming the data between two different databases is inefficient and needs to be improved."
"In some cases, expectations were not met, especially when specific tables were expected to be disabled, and changes were anticipated in the target environment. We had to take backups from the source and refresh the address to address this."
"We struggle with memory. It's limited. However, it may be because of our unique business case and how we use it that it's limiting for us."
"The GoldenGate license is very costly."
"Troubleshooting issues is not always the easiest. It should be easier to troubleshoot. Their support can also be improved. They don't read your problem statement and waste a lot of time. GoldenGate for big data is actually a separate license. It is sort of a separate product, but it might fall underneath your GoldenGate category. If we're talking about big data, its interaction with big data sources is poorly documented."
"The solution, in general, should be easier to use, with less need to perform workarounds within the system."
"The solution is quite costly, and if they could reduce their pricing, it would be more economical to implement."
