Fivetran vs. MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence

Fivetran's business model justifies the use-case where we require data from a single source basically a lot of data but if the requirement is not on the heavier side, Fivetran comes to costly operation when compared to its peers. Otherwise, I'll recommend Fivetran for stability and update and seamless service provider.

MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence is excellent for creating batch records to track a specific regulated process. It helps us keep our data in line and make sure we are following our procedures. there are some difficulties with more customizable products. The more variable that are in the product the fewer features that MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence can apply to assist

• Coding is not needed to build production records
• All data input types are highly configurable from getting data collected from integrated systems all the way to simple text entries.
• Customer service is outstanding to keep our cases resolved in a timely manner.
• The updates continue to improve end user experiences and better functionality

• Very difficult to get connectors enhanced if a specific needed object is not supported by them
• Depending on the edition needed and the data volumes, can get quite expensive

The quality service and the strong production versatility has helped us develop a great solution for our batch records. These improvements are much better than the legacy batch records and provide immediate access at multiple points across the organization. Would definitely purchase again.

Very easy and intuitive to setup and maintain as there usually are not that many options. Very well documented (e.g. how to setup each connector, how the schema looks like, any specific features of this connector etc.). Also the operation is intuitive, e.g. you have status pages, log pages, configuration pages etc. for each connector.

I receive positive feedback from manufacturing personnel about how easy it is to use when manufacturing and I also receive positive feedback from quality personnel for review batch records. We have had some deviations where operators are inputting data under other operators accounts which is really bad good documentation practices and is a compliance risk

It runs pretty well and gets our data from point A to point cluster quickly enough. Honestly, it's not something I think about unless it breaks and that's pretty rare.

During a few early templates, a configuration for product family had not been removed and it created an error. The subject matter expert and support desk was able to help me understand the error was builder generated and how to resolve it very quickly. This is now a non-existent occurrence.

We never seriously considered using anything else. Our data engineers had used Fivetran extensively in previous roles so when it came time to make a decision, there wasn't much of a process. They gladly signed the contract with Fivetran pretty quickly.

We choose Mx to try and get rid of the paper trail, assist with the improvement for GDP, ease of access and review of the production records to try and get better on releasing batches to meet demand. Having our documents, training and production records in one general area makes it easier for end user

• It has been very positive in serving BI team with new source requests
• It has been OK at scaling to match as data volumes as source data size grows

• We have been able to reduce the amount of production records variability had based on product families.
• New user uptake is very high and they can learn the solution quickly.
• The ability to add formula parameters and production record linking has helped traceability.
