CloverDX vs. Skyvia

CloverDX designer as a standalone is well suited for fairly straightforward transformations of data. If you want to do large scale data integrations, then their server edition adds an extra level of automation and job control.

It was very simple to setup the connection required to both HubSpot and our Azure SQL server. It is then a simple process of using these connections to setup the replication of each table required from HubSpot and set an appropriate schedule. The only advise I would give after using it for a couple of months is to create a separate replication job per table as it is easier to then amend and rerun schedules if required.

• Connects with Salesforce very well
• The graphical view of the transformations allows for easy creations and maintenance
• Support has always been eager to assist with any graph creation difficulties I run into

• The strength of Skyvia is its versatility - they have different kinds of integration, query.
• And backup products to cover different kinds of business tasks.
• And we appreciate the scheduling - it really helps to set and make things automatically.

• The initial learning curve is a little steep. Not very steep or super steep, just a little steep.
• Having enough memory for large multi-step problems can be an issue if the graph isn't designed well.

• I'd love to get an email saying "whoops, your integration is ready" - at the moment I receive only bad news about failures. Would be nice to have a piece of good news, too.

While CloverDX has an active forum for users to submit questions and assist with answers, their in house support team is incredibly responsive when I've contacted them for assistance. This seems almost at odds with most other software companies who try to save money on tech support by promoting a forum or knowledge base.

I think guys have a really good support team, and even from different time zones we managed to get worthy support.

CloverDX was a less expensive alternative to Talend and had a more intuitive interface from what I could see during the evaluation.

• Work that use to take multiple people 20 to 30 hours a week to complete each has now been fully automated to where only 1 or 2 hours a week for maintenance is required.

• Skyvia is a willing horse - you set - it runs. I'm pretty impressed by the amount of time and effort it has already saved me.
